Sorting Option

The Sort Lines option in Create Purchase Orders (PO40/Detail Info folder) allows you to sort the detail lines on the PO by Product Code. Your ability to use this option is determined by the following factors:

  • When the PO is a dedicated PO (OE30), the Sort Lines option is not available.

  • When the PO has lines that are received or flagged as in transit, the Sort Lines option is also unavailable.

  • The PO Lines field in Company Control Initialization (CC00/Purchasing) affects the Sort Lines option. This field can be set to:

    • When Requested - allows the sorting of detail lines on the PO using the Sort Lines icon.

    • Never Sort - disables the Sort Lines icon.

    • Always Sort - allows the sorting of detail lines on the PO using the Sort Lines icon and offers the option to sort lines when you print the PO from within PO40 or when you select the Start a new record icon.
