PO04


PO04.1 - Buyer

Use this form to define and maintain buyers in the Purchase Order
application. The buyer code usually corresponds to a buyer name and is
required in PO20 (PO Entry). You can also assign a buyer code to a vendor in
PO10 (PO Vendor). If you assign a buyer code to a vendor, that buyer code
defaults on all purchase orders for that vendor unless you override it at PO
entry.

This form also provides a tab where you can create a template for a buyer to
use when working in the PO Worksheet (PO23.1) form. The template defines
filter values that are used when document or other filter values have not been
entered.

PO04.2 - Buyer Purchasing Class

Use this form to assign major and minor purchasing classes to a buyer. Using
this form is optional. You can use it if you decide to limit a buyer you have
set up in PO04.1 (Buyer) to order from specific major and/or minor purchasing
classes only. The buyer is then restricted to ordering only the classes of
items entered here. If a buyer creates a purchase order that includes an item
or items that are not in the purchasing classes assigned to that buyer, the
purchase order cannot be released in PO20 (Purchase Order), it must be
released in PO22.1 (Authorization/Release) by someone authorized to do so. Use
IC07 (Purchasing Class) to define purchasing classes. You can also use the
IC11 (Item Master) to assign purchasing classes to individual items.

Use PO20.1 (PO Entry) to assign a purchasing class to the purchase order line
of an existing order. After you inquire on an order, choose the More button.
You can assign a purchasing class under the Detail tab.
