Choose the buying period#

Have the supplier or order number you want to review ready.

Compare orders and receipts#

  1. 1
    Open Reports and select Purchase Orders.
  2. 2
    Use Filter by date and All Currencies, then click Search. Search for a supplier or order number to narrow the list.
  3. 3
    Compare ordered and received quantities, then click the order number to review its receipts.
  4. 4
    Open an order with an outstanding quantity and review its receipt history.
  5. 5
    Compare the supplier's promised delivery and your receiving paperwork before contacting them.

Ordered quantity is a commitment; received quantity is what staff accepted. A bill may follow later.

Open the delivery#

A PO is a purchasing commitment, not a posted supplier bill or proof of payment.

WARNING: Use receipt and bill links before recognizing a payable.

Before judging a supplier#

Open the purchase order and receipt to confirm what actually arrived before judging delivery performance.

If a delivered item still appears outstanding, check whether the receipt was entered against this order.
