RTA Web - Purchase Order Lines
If PO Approvals are in use, an approved PO that has changes made will have to be approved again before able to be processed and post received items.
Adding a Line to a PO
Lines can be added to a PO using the following process:
Click the Add Line link in the Line Info Tab
Select an available part number from the drop down or enter in a part not on file and NONFILE will display to the right of the dropdown
A part on file will have all relevant fields from the part file pull into the details for the PO
If alternate part #s have already been set up/associate with the main part file number, typing those in will reference and allow the user to pull the part number based on that alternate number
Add an alternate part # if needed and this is generally a vendor cross reference number if the vendor’s part number differs from the main file part number assigned in RTA
Once the part number is pulled into the line, a user can associate an Alt Part# with the main part file by clicking in the Alt Part # field, entering the alternate part number, and clicking the check mark
This number will now cross-reference the main part file number and can be used in the future to locate the main part file number when adding a line to a PO
Description: If the part in on-file then the description will pull automatically from the part record. If it is NON-FILE then you can put in a Description of the part on the PO line
Add the Order Quantity
Add or Edit the Order Price depending on what is displayed
Add a Tax Rate if necessary (one may already be present if a tax rate has been set up in the vendor file or facility file)

Add Account Number if using account numbers to denote a general ledger account number for accounting purposes
Add a Work Order Number if the part being ordered will be posted directly to an active work order upon receipt

Add any pertinent Line Notes needed for the order
Click the Add button in the bottom footer section
Line Total
The line total will remain 0 until the line item has been received.
