PO'S  (NEW VIEW ALL ITEMS SCREEN)

 

PTM has changed the View All Items screen in PO's. Because of system errors and user mistakes the ability to use the Alt/P to add or remove a part from or to a PO has been removed.  To replace the old Alt/P a new function key on the View all Items screen called the move key or F2 has been created. This feature now allows the user to add a part to an existing PO or change from one PO to another at the same time it changes the supplier to the correct supplier thus eliminating the chance of changing the supplier on the PO. Also because of users accidentally removing the PO number from ordered parts we have removed the ability to actually remove the PO number from the View screen. To remove the PO number use the( R ) key in the ( C )Receiving screen to remove the part from the existing PO. Another feature has been added called a Sort key (F4). This feature lets the user to sort the View all Items screen by PO number, Part number or Vendor.

 

 Because of the newer sort features the screen may at times not properly refresh itself and will need to be refreshed as some functions are used manually. To refresh the screen use the page up and page down keys. If this does not refresh the screen or if the key that was pressed was in error then simply exit out of View all Items and go back in.
