Hi List,
I need your suggestions on the following situation:
1. A Purchase Order is raised for an item for a Quantity say 100.
2. The order is approved.
3. Now I need to reduce the quantity of the item from 100 to 75 after the PO has been sent to the supplier.
A : How do I reduce the quantity on the PO. Should I just use the revision and edit the line detail? (This is not a favorable solution as I wish to lock the PO Details once it reaches the approved status (280).) Does 'Change Order' allow you to reduce quantities ? Inputting a negative quantity (-25) in a new line for the same item in a change Order appears to be doing the job - but I am not sure if that is the preferred method.
B : Can the System generate an 'Amendment PO' to be sent to the supplier notifying them of the reduction in quantity or will that have to a custom report?
thanks in advance
