Sending a purchase order to the supplier

How to send the purchase order to the supplier from Cloud via email

Written by Ashok P

All purchase orders (POs) you have created are listed on the Procurement > Purchase Orders page. Once you have configured the POs with shipping, billing, and other details, it is time to send them to the suppliers. You can send one PO at a time or multiple POs at once.

Send one PO

To send a PO, click the PO tile. This will open the PO's edit view. Click "Send PO" in the top-right corner and click "Send now."

Send multiple POs

If you are creating multiple POs for a project or stockpiling, you can send them all at once as soon as you create them.

To send all the POs you have just created, click "Send all POs" in the left panel.

In this example, we are sending two POs created for a project involving products from two suppliers.

Supplier-Price variance check

Cloud checks the unit cost of the products in the PO against the latest prices synchronized to the catalog by the suppliers.

Variance found

If there is a variance between the unit cost and the latest supplier price, you will see a Supplier Price Variance Detected pop-up listing the products that have a variance.

You can synchronize product costs with the catalog one by one, all at once, or send the PO with synchronization.

No variance

If Cloud detects no variance, you can send the PO as usual.
