Before You Run This Report

You must run Compute/Print Purchasing Commitments in Costpoint before running the Purchase Order Commitments Detail report.

The following options are available in the Compute/Print Purchasing Commitments screen in Costpoint:

  • Real Time: If this option is selected, the commitments data is stored in the PO_RT_COMMIT_SUM and PO_RT_COMMIT_DETL tables. The report includes all transactions regardless of the transaction dates, so you do not need to enter prompt information for fiscal year, period, or subperiod.

  • By Period End Date: If this option is selected, the commitments data is stored in the PO_COMMIT_SUM and PO_COMMIT_DETL tables. The report calculates commitments based on fiscal year, period, and subperiod, and you must enter information for these prompts, which display when you select a company.
