Maintain Purchasing Info (PO13) Header Record

The Maintain Purchasing Info (PO13) Header Record is available on every folder within PO13. The information in the Header section relates to the Supplier and Product selected in the respective fields.

The following list defines every field in the Header section of PO13:

  • In the Supplier section, enter or select from the query a Supplier code in the Supplier field. The Supplier is defined in Maintain Supplier Master (PO11).

    • When the Supplier code is entered, the Supplier's Name, Country and Currency automatically display in the Supplier section.

  • In the Product section, enter or select from the query a Product code in the Product field. The Product is defined in Maintain Inventory Master (IM13).

    • When a Product code is entered, the Product Description, Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) and the Product Type automatically display in the Product section.

    • If the Product is already set up with a Primary Supplier, the following message displays: "Product (the Product Code) not set up for this supplier. Defaults from (the Primary Supplier code). Do you wish to copy all the Pack Information for (the Primary Supplier code)? Yes/No".

      • Select 'Yes' to have all of the information from the Pack folder copied into the secondary Supplier record for this Product.

      • Select 'No' to have none of the Pack Information copied to the secondary Supplier/Product record. If there is a GTIN record that is flagged as the 'Default Costing' record, the Supplier Product Code that is assigned to that record will be copied to the secondary Supplier and will display in the Supplier Product Code field on the Purchasing folder.

  • Last Price Change - displays the date of the last price change for the current Purchasing Info record.

  • Landed Cost - displays the Replacement Cost of the product for the current Supplier. For more information on the Replacement/Landed Cost calculations, click here.

      Note: For Work Order Products, the Landed Cost is dynamically updated as components are added to the WO Product.

The following table outlines the functionality of each button in the Header section of PO13:

Submit Submit Saves the information entered for the current record. If the Duty Code assigned to the current Supplier/Product has been deleted or modified (i.e. if the Country has been removed from the Duty Code) in Maintain Purchasing Tables (PO09/Duty Rates), then the following message displays when you attempt to save the record: "REPLACEMENT COST will not be recorded properly because Duty Code XXXX does not have Country ZZ assigned. Set up in PO09 and then run PO17 to recalculate the Replacement Cost(s). OK". Click OK to close this message window. Note: The Supplier/Product record is saved, but the Replacement Cost is not recalculated.
