Introduction to the Purchase Order Contract Register

This register allows you to record Contracts that you have received from Suppliers for Items that you need to purchase. Where appropriate, you can convert a Purchase Order Quotation into a Purchase Order using the 'Purchase Order' Create menu function. The resulting Purchase Order will be connected to the Contract, and from the Contract you will be able to review the status of the Purchase Order.

Purchase Order Contracts can be useful if you agree to purchase a certain quantity of Items over time and at a particular price. You can record the Supplier, quantity and price in a Purchase Order Contract, treating it as a blanket order. When necessary, you can create Purchase Orders from the Contract, reducing the quantity in those Purchase Orders so that you only buy what you need at the time. The Purchase Order Contract will keep a running total of the overall quantity purchased, so you will know when you have reached the agreed total.
