Purchase Orders

A purchase order is a document that specifies the types, quantities and prices of products between the purchaser and the seller. The prices are not maintained in Objective.

The purchase order data can be exchanged automatically through an interface via Objective. You can also manually import the purchase order data.

A purchase order can be linked to multiple receipts and receipts can be linked to multiple purchase orders.

Receipts can be linked to the purchase orders in Objective WMS:

  • the user can set the link manually via wizard in the Supervisor
  • via the RF device the information from the purchase order is linked on receipt

WMS continues to manage the link between the purchase order and the receipts.

  • On every change to the purchase order (status, quantity), the linked receipts are updated.
  • On every change to a receipt, the linked purchase order is updated.

When closing a receipt that is linked to a purchase order Objective WMS can send the necessary info about this to the system that manages the purchase orders.
