This page lists the Purchase Order, all AP Invoices/Credit Memo, and all Inventory Receipt transaction line items. The purpose of this page is to quickly show all the Purchase Order related transaction for one or more selected line items.

This list view also contains columns for each Attribute that is set up for the 'AP Purchasing' and 'Items' attribute types. Because these are user defined, they are not included in the default view but can be added a saved layout. AP Purchasing and Items attributes are not included in the help documentation.

Search

Filter Items	Description
Auto Hide Filters	A non-required text box that defaults as checked and is used to determine if the Search Options should be hidden when the Inquiry runs or is refreshed. When checked, each time the 'Refresh' button is clicked, the search options will be hidden, allowing for more rows of data to be visible on the page. This behavior is ideal for users that have entered their search parameters and want to see the results in full-screen. When unchecked, the search options will not be hidden when the 'Refresh' button is clicked. This behavior is ideal for users that need to run several searches with different search parameters. Users can only change the default value of this setting with a custom search in the "Saved Searches" lookup. If you change the default setting but do not save it in a custom search, it will only remain this way while the page is opened. Refer to this FAQ for advanced search options.
Auto Refresh on Open	A non-required text box that defaults as checked and is used to determine if the inquiry opens with or without data in the grid. When checked, each time the page is opened, the search is run using the default parameters (or a 'Saved Search' if one was set as your default for the page) so the grid will be populated with data . When unchecked, the search is NOT run when the page opens and no data will be present until the 'Refresh' button is clicked. Users can only change the default value of this setting with a custom search in the "Saved Searches" lookup. Refer to this FAQ for advanced search options.
Item	Used to select one or more Items. This is a multi-select standard lookup that is not required to return results. It defaults as blank.

The lookup contains a list of all 'Active' Items.
PO #	Used to select all or part of a PO #. This is a text box that is not required.
Requisition	Used to select all or part of a Requisition #. This is a text box that is not required.
Saved Searches	Displays the saved searches lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select previously saved search options, create a new set of search options, save changes to existing search options, forget/delete saved search options and/or assign a saved search option as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the search options, the user can click the Save Options icon and save the changes. Saving search options will also save the preferences for 'Auto Refresh on Open' and 'Auto Hide Filters'. The new search option can also be set as the default. Default searches can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default search is selected. Refer to this FAQ for advanced search options.
Search	A non-required text box that defaults to blank and is used to search across multiple fields. When the page is 'Refreshed', the data returned will be limited by what was included in the Search box (in addition to any other Search Options). Refer to this FAQ for advanced search options. The Search field can be used to search across the following fields: Item Requisition Transaction Vendor ID Vendor Name

Toolbar Icons	Description
Column Filter Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a filter row in the grid under the column headers. The filter row will be displayed by default if the Quick Column Filter is also implemented in the page. When enabled, this will allow users to type in text to filter by a specific column.
Excel	Exports the contents of the grid to an Excel file that will automatically download. The contents that export are those that are visible to the user. Therefore, if the user has filtered the view, or excluded columns, only the contents in the grid will be exported.
Favorites	Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline. Users must log out and back in before the pages will be visible in the 'My Shortcuts' tab.
Group By Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a row in the grid above the column headers to enable grouping by one or more column(s). Once displayed, users may drag and drop column headers to group by a specific column. Once the grid is grouped by a column(s), a subtotal footer row will display in the grouping for columns that have a page footer total.
Help	Opens the online WIKI help page for the current page.
Print	Opens the Print dialog window, where transaction and/or analysis reports can be downloaded, printed and/or emailed. When clicked, all the Reports that launch from the Print Dialog that are assigned to this page, and that the user has rights to (if Report Data Access is enabled) are displayed.
Quick Column Filter	Used to filter across all columns in the grid. When the user types text into the Quick Column Filter text box, the grid's Filter Row will be automatically hidden. The text in the Quick Column Filter text box automatically replaces any existing Filter Row filters. The results of the data immediately refresh as you enter text.
Refresh	Re-queries the contents of the grid/page based on the Search Options or the default values for grids that do not support Search Options. This ONLY re-queries the contents of columns that are currently visible, if you add a new column the contents will be empty until you click 'Refresh' again.
Saved Layouts	Displays the column layout lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select a previously saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, forget/delete a layout and/or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the layout, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Save Layout icon and save the changes to the column layout. The visibility of the Filter Row is also saved with a saved layout. The new layout can also be set as the default. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). Default layouts can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default layout is selected. Please note that existing saved grid layouts will display the Filter Row as hidden by default.
