Purchase Order Vendor Conversion (AP51.4)

Use Purchase Order Vendor Conversion (AP51.4) to define specific purchase order parameters for vendors set up on Vendor Conversion (AP51.1).

If some of these parameters are defined at the company level, you can use this form to redefine these same parameters for individual vendors. If you set up specific vendor parameters on this form, the parameters default onto all purchase orders created for the vendor, but you can override the defaults on individual orders. Defaults include phone, fax, freight and ship terms, ship via, and receiving tolerances. This form also places purchasing constraints according to vendor, such as open purchase limit, maximum order amount, and receiving tolerances.

You can identify how to issue purchase orders to a vendor (via paper, fax, Electronic Data Interchange, or Internet e-mail), specify purchase order revision parameters, and specify how revisions are issued to vendors as well as whether to print only the revised portion of the purchase order or to reprint the entire purchase order.
