The Detail Info folder in Create Purchase Orders (PO40) allows you to enter the product information for the Purchase Order number entered in the header section.
The following list defines every field on the Detail Info folder of PO40:
The following fields automatically display information relevant to the current product. The information in these fields can be updated or can be left at the default values:
- Purchase Price - displays the correct Purchase Price from PO13 depending on the quantity ordered. If you are modifying an existing line, the previously updated price displays in this field.
- Note: Changing this price affects only this line and does not update PO13 unless the Update Master option is selected. For more details on using the Master Update, click here.
- Per - displays the price Per unit of measure. The Per field for a new Purchase Order line will default to the Price Per U/M assigned in PO13/Pricing Info. If you are modifying an existing line the previously updated Per is displayed in the field.
- Note: Changing the Per value affects only this line and does not update PO13 unless the Update Master option is selected. For more details on using the Master Update, click here.
- Discount - is used to discount the current line only. If a discount is assigned to the product in PO13, then that discount automatically displays in this field. The discount can be a positive or a negative value. The value entered decreases or increases the purchase price by the percentage amount entered. A positive amount in the discount field will reduce the price by the percentage discount amount entered, while a negative amount will increase the value of the product for this supplier.
For example, a 3% discount on a Purchase Price of $100.00 will result in a line total of $97.00.
The Discount Default value is expressed as a percentage, and can be a maximum of 11 characters. You can enter the value in one of the following ways:
- Straight Discount: 33
- Fractional Discount: 33.333
- Chain Discount: 30/10/5
- Note: Changing the Discount field affects only this line and does not update PO13 unless the Update Master option is selected. For details on using the Master Update, click here.
