Purchase Order Inquiry - Header overview

General

This section shows basic information about the purchase order transaction.

If you have integrated with Service Management, you may be using the re-rent functionality. If so, as you monitor the re-rent item(s) and contract, you can analyze the margin by comparing the cost of the rental from the vendor with the revenue gained from the customer. To help you evaluate the re-rent contract, a drillback is available in Purchase Order Inquiry. When you are working in Distribution SX.e, you can click the RE-RENT drillback button. The button uses Infor OS Portal or Infor Ming.le drillback functionality to access the Contract Lines form in the Rental Contracts module of Service Management. There you can view the current rental status and revenue information for that specific rental contract. To access the RE-RENT button in Purchase Order Inquiry, in Search, specify the appropriate PO number. In the Header tab, the button is displayed in the General section.

Revaluations

In the Revaluations section, you can view existing revaluation transactions for foreign vendors that are based on currency exchange rate variations for the purchase order. Revaluations transactions are created for active AP invoices and purchase orders when you run the GL Administration Asset and Liability Revaluation Report.

The Revaluations section is available if only the vendor is a foreign currency vendor and the purchase order has existing revaluations.

Additional Information Warehouse Details

The Address Override setting is displayed for information only. Address Override is part of the AvaTax Address Validation feature. The Address Override setting is selected during the AvaTax Address Validation process. This override makes the tax calculation with a General Delivery address to avoid an error. This is beneficial when the address is not in the United States Postal Service (USPS) database yet, such as with new construction.
