Purchase Order

You can create and handle simple and complex purchase orders using the Purchase Order page.

TrafficLIVE Purchase Orders allow you to:

• Combine multiple job purchases from the same supplier into one purchase order, even if they are for different clients.
• Add purchase lines with different delivery dates.
• Record estimated, ordered, and actual information.
• Have flexible delivery address options.
• Output and send directly to a supplier using Correspondence.

You can create a purchase order in TrafficLIVE in one of two ways:

• From within the job, which automatically links the purchase order to the job.
• From the Purchasing area in the main menu; however, you must link existing job purchases to the purchase order.

Each purchase order must be linked to at least one job purchase line. You cannot create a purchase order from a non-job item.

Foreign Currency

Purchase orders can be created in foreign currencies even if they have been estimated in a different currency.

Maximum Issue Purchase Order Amount

You can set the maximum purchase order issue amount for a user in Admin > User Permissions > General Permissions if you have the correct permissions.

Display the Purchase Order Page

Click Menu > Purchasing > Purchase Order to display the Find Purchase Order page. Select a purchase order, or create a purchase order, to display the Purchase Order page.

Find Purchase Orders

Use the Find Purchase Orders page to find and work with purchase order information. You can:

• Search and filter POs that are related to one supplier.
• Customize the data that is returned from the search.
• Export the data to CSV format for further analysis.
• Produce an output of the data in HTML, CSV, or PDF format.
