Open PO Quotes Tab

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The Open PO Quotes Tab shows the list of all Purchase Quotes with Vendor Responses still outstanding. Since Vendor Responses are usually entered as they come in, there may be some entries here with replies from some Vendors, but not all have sent their Pricing yet. Once you receive the pricing from all Vendors the Status of a Purchase Quote will be Closed and it will no longer appear here. As you work with the individual Purchase Quotes you have the ability to Cancel if you expect one will never be fully completed.

Here is a sample of the Open PO Quotes screen:

This screen, with multiple details, is a DataView, where you can adjust the layout, print or export the data (see DataView Menu). There may also be a header panel above for the "parent" of the details, or a DataView Footer below. Usually you can use key-matching search on fields like ID Number.

To help you manage many possible entries, this screen is already displayed using the Group-By bar, allowing you to drag column headers into the Group-By in the screen header.

Use the Horizontal Scroll Bar at the bottom of the window to see further valuable columns on the right.

 

To work with Purchase Quote detail lines on the screen:
Click to select a Purchase Quote detail line
Double-click on the detail line to open and review or make changes to the Purchase Quote General Tab screen, where you can work with the Various Tabs, such as the Pricing Tab, to enter a Vendor Pricing response
At the bottom right there are three buttons:
Refresh Screen: - Click this button to re-display the screen after making changes to some of the detail lines.
Print: - Click this button to print the current screen display for work and review.
Preview: - Click this button to preview the printout for the current screen display.
