Access to Print Purchase Orders only

Rhonda,

I think the Open Purchase order report is a good alternative for us !

Thanks

I have said it before and will say it again. Why not use the Open
Purchase Order report that Vantage offers? They can't make any changes
to the order, just print the open items. It does show the dollar
amounts. You can even pull it by all or only specific vendors, so it's
useful for a day to day requirement. It's very flexible and since it
puts many lines to the page, you waste less paper.

Besides, it's just a report, and not a document. I'd feel much better
about that than the PO copy being out in the shop. (I'm not slamming
people, it's a confidentiality and security thing)

Can you tell what I do here?

The guys who do the receiving do not have access to Vantage close by.
They need to have them printed so they can verify the receiving from
where ever they are on the shop floor !

If they just want to "consult" PO's, why don't they use the PO Tracker?

Is there a way to give an access in Vantage so that a user is only able
to print all Purchase Order's ? The guys in receiving want to be able to
consult PO's when needed. I don't want them to be able to modify the
PO's. We are presently on version 5.0.

Paper-less is a nice concept, but doesn't always work that well. Had the
same situation back at usaero. Some POs had numerous items for very
similar small hardware pieces. The receiving guy's speed & accuracy of
matching the parts to the PO items was drastically improved with a printed
PO he could work from and check off as he progressed. On such orders,
nothing was committed to Vantage entry till he was confident of his matching.

Purchasing was supposed to forward him a copy of the POs, but of course
that didn't always happen. Grudgingly, I had to give the receiving guy
access to PO Maintenance to be able to print his own copies (boss'
orders). PO Print capability in the tracker would be very welcome! So get
in there and submit an enhancement request, or add your name if it's
already there!

As an alternative, you could easily put together a R.B. report summarizing
a PO for them to use. This could also have the advantage of not show
dollars or other info you consider sensitive.

How about a daily automated RB report to show the information they need.
Have them pitch the report at the end of the day and pickup a new updated
report the next work period. That way they wouldn't have a pile of paper to
carry around just a few pages.

We just print an extra "Pink" copy of the P.O. in the purchasing department,
they accumulate them for a day, then the receiving person picks up the pinks
each morning. They have an accordion folder that they file them in -- I
think just alphabetical by vendor name. They pull the P.O. copy when they
receive something, initial the item and it goes with the packing slip to
A/P. Paperless is a good idea, but sometimes impractical. We have a RB
report, but then you have to train the receiving guy to change filters and
so on.

So, just curious, who enters receipts in Vantage?
