Enter Purchase Orders - Stock Control
This option is used to record purchase orders that you have
placed on suppliers.
The procedures involved in completing purchase order transactions are virtually the same as for sales issues, except that the account code in the transaction header refers to the supplier account code, and a unit cost figure is requested in the transaction detail instead of a price. The "Which Price” prompt is also not prompted this time. You may well use your purchase order number in the "Reference” field so that this number is written into the stock transactions that are generated. Batch tracking details are also not prompted on purchase order entry as no physical stock movement takes place.
Key in the unit cost price (or the per pack cost price) and
press <Enter>
