A Purchase Order (aka PO) is a document issued by a buyer committing to pay the seller for specific products or services to be delivered in the future. The advantage to the buyer is the ability to place an order without immediate payment. From the seller’s perspective, it reduces credit risk, since the buyer is obligated to pay once the products or services have been delivered. Each PO has a unique number associated with it that helps both buyer and seller track delivery and payment.
This page lists each unique Purchase Order item on Closed Purchase Orders. The purpose of this page is to view line items on closed Purchase Orders.
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.

Page Detail
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. |
More Actions | Displays a drop down menu of related actions. The list of options includes:

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 Column Layout | 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. |
