5.0 - Purchasing question

While there is no automatic way to do this in Vantage, we have accomplished
this "outside" the system. Basically, we have created a VBForm field in the
PO that the purchasing agent manually puts in the "linked" sales order
number. We then created a Progress program that runs from the sales order
tracker (a button on a VBForm) and displays purchase order costs for that SO
on the screen.

You can also use this field to tie the two together for various reporting
requirements.

Hi, all!

Got a situation....looking for suggestions.

We have a sales order for a repair of a product. We sent the item out for
repair (subcontract). No job was cut internally since we were not doing any
production related to this order in-house.

Is there a way to link a Purchase Order to a Sales Order? (Like linking a
job to a Sales Order?)

I would like to capture the costs related to the Purchase Order when we do
the invoicing of the Sales Order.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Plan A:
Link an Order to a JOB and a Job to a PO.
Plan B:
Create an Order for a purchased part then create a PO for that part and see
and maintain the two while they are open in Time Phase and when they are
closed after a receipt compare the part file costs (last, avg, std, lot) to
the sales order selling price.

I guess it depends if your company is purchasing oriented or production
oriented.

Easiest thing is probably to create a job with a subcontract operation to
repair outside. Receive & issue the (RMA?) part as a material for that job.
