Planned PRP Purchase Order

You can create and manage planned purchase orders, purchase schedules, and requests for quotations in Procurement.

Planned PRP purchase orders are required to:

  • Order goods
  • Rent an equipment
  • Mobilize subcontractors

The planned orders are generated using the Generate Planned PRP Orders (tppss6200m000) session or maintained manually (firm planned) in these sessions:

  • Planned PRP Purchase Order (Material) (tppss6110m000)
  • Planned PRP Purchase Order (Equipment) (tppss6111m000)
  • Planned PRP Purchase Order (Equipment) (tppss6111m000)

Planned orders can be created for material, equipment, and subcontracting (standard and project cost objects). Only purchase orders can be generated for equipment and subcontracting.

Rescheduling messages

If the budget or planning dates are modified, Infor LN generates rescheduling messages to update PRP orders or project orders that have already been transferred.

Approve planned PRP purchase orders

You can approve the selected planned PRP purchase orders in the Approve Planned PRP Purchase Orders (tppss6220m000) session. You can also use the Planned PRP Purchase Order sessions to select and approve the PRP purchase order. After you confirm the purchase order, you can transfer the order to procurement and create an actual purchase order. Confirmation means the order has been approved for transfer by the authorized person or the project manager.

Note: With a time fence you can automatically confirm planned orders that are within the time fence period.

Transfer planned PRP purchase orders

You can transfer PRP purchase orders and/or purchase budget lines (defined in the purchase budget in PTC) to procurement using the Transfer Planned PRP Purchase Orders (tppss6230m000) session. A planned purchase order can also be transferred to a planned warehouse order using the Change to Planned Warehouse Order option in the Planned PRP purchase order sessions.
