Things to know

  • When adding line items to a PO, the information pulled from your pricebook includes vendor-specific information—such as cost and part number—which was obtained when the items were added or mapped from the vendor's catalog. This improves cost accuracy and reduces reconciliation time once you receive the order and invoice.        

    Note: This process is specific to the Full Procurement Integration.

  • If you only have the Purchasing module enabled, the Inventory section in the navigation bar is renamed Purchasing.
