PRINT PURCHASE ORDERS
Use this screen to print hard copies of the purchase order (PO). You can print all purchase orders or specific ranges. Depending on the selections on this screen, Purchase Order, Change Order, Blanket Order, Release Order, and/or Subcontract PO is printed in the header of each page, along with the respective PO ID numbers.
Please be sure to review the print settings (and the documentation) on the Configure Purchase Order Print Options screen before printing purchase orders. Several of the print options available in the Configure Purchase Order Print Options screen are modifiable only on that screen, but not the Print Purchase Orders screen.
Use this screen whenever you need a hard copy of the purchase order.
The purchase order is not part of the Costpoint trail and does not need to be retained. You may, however, find it useful to retain a hard copy of the purchase order for your records.
Location
Identification
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve
a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen
selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related
parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes
more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are
also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of
a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different
way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter
ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters
automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print
options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any.
You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Parameter ID
Enter, or click 
to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose
characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections
you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are
stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using
Query.
You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because
you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections.
After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the
defaults.
Description
Enter, or click
to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
Selection Ranges
Use the fields in this group box to enter the selection criteria for the purchase orders you want to print. PO lines may list parts that have documents attached to them in the Documents subtask of the Manage Parts screen in Costpoint Product Definition. If the Print on Purchase Reports field is Y (Yes) in the Documents subtask for a particular part that is on a PO line, the document ID, revision, type and name is printed on the PO in the Item/Description section of printout. The document name and location must be valid and accessible in order for this information to print. To eliminate document information from printing on the PO, access the part ID on the Manage Parts screen, select the Documents subtask, enter N (No) in the Print on Purchase Reports field, and save the record.
