Update a Purchase Order (PO) related to a Request For Quote (RFQ) with the prices, discounts, and texts from the RFQ.
When you update a PO selected in the Related Purchase Orders tab, the following rules apply:
-
If a supplier is not assigned to the PO, then the PO is updated only if one supplier is awarded for all items. If multiple suppliers are awarded, an error appears.
-
If a supplier is already assigned to the PO, then the PO is updated only if the same supplier is pre-awarded for all items. If not, the PO is not updated and an error appears.
-
If the external status of the PO is New and the internal status is Create/Change, then the system checks the currency. If the currency differs from the quote, a warning appears. If you continue with the update, the PO is updated using the quoted price calculated in the PO currency.
-
If the external status of the PO is ISSUED, then you cannot update the PO.
