Purchase Order Register
Access this report using Reports>Purchase Orders>Purchase Order Register. |
Use this report to print purchase order information, which was created using Activities>Purchase Orders>Create/Modify Purchase Orders. This report contains:
- Additional items, columns, and filters if any user defined fields were created by the Administrator using Organization>Set Up User Defined Fields. Only user defined fields with a field type of String, Editable Drop-Down List, Non-Editable Drop-Down List, Date, or Yes/No are available in the Items by Page group box and are listed as an available filter. User defined fields with a field type of Currency follow the formatting of the organization's functional currency. The functional currency was determined when the organization was created by the Administrator (File>New Organization>Functional Currency panel).
- The Custom Columns feature, which allows you to create report columns that are not provided by the system. These columns can be set up with custom formulas.

Account Level Security is available for this report. This feature allows you to define the account codes and related amounts a user can view in the report. When account level security is activated for the organization (Security>Set Up Account Level Segments) and enabled for a user (Security>Set Up Account Level Security), the report will only print account information the user is allowed to see. Note that if a user does not have Account Level Security enabled, the user will see all account codes.
If the "Print Disclaimer on Report" check box is selected on the Security>Set Up Account Level Segments form, "This report may be affected by Account Level Security" prints in the header of this report. In that case, an * also prints after the report title.

Segment Code, Title, Short Title, Group Code, Group Title, and Group Short Title columns and Segment Code and Group Code filters are only available to track encumbrance information that has been generated from a purchase order.

Additional columns and filters are available to track requisition information that has been included in a purchase order. All requisitions were created using Activities>Electronic Requisitions>Create/Approve Requisitions.

The Currency column is only available if this module was installed and added by the Administrator (Organization>Add a Module).
