Some of our users are constantly needing to email or send files of purchase orders to other people. Normally what they do is print a copy of the PO to our printer then scan the copy to create a PDF or fax it to themselves so they get the confirmation email with a copy of the PO. This is a bit of a waste of paper and takes additional time to do.

Is there a way to print to a Document Writer file rather than actually printing a paper copy each time on Lawson or do we need to buy a software to do this? I have attached screenshot

We often send POs to internal staff when they need a copy after it's sent to the vendor. We set the PO Issue Method flag to I (email) and Revisions Include flag to I (re-issue) and add their email address. The hourly PO120 job creates the file and the fax integrator picks it up and sends the email out with the PO attached as a pdf. Our Marketing team usually receives the initial PO as they work directly with their vendors.

You did this in PO20.2 (PO Header Options) correct? It's the last field at the bottom of that same screen.

I recommend dbtech and RAS. We can send the POs to a viewer, where anybody that needs access can view it on an as needed basis. Full audit trail of people viewing reports. Reports can also be e-mailed to external partners if needed.
