Purchase Business Setup (PBS) - Rules

These fields indicate the required transaction reference formats to be used in the Purchasing processes. These must already have been set up using Transaction References (TRS). Multiple sequences can be implemented by using the Transaction Reference Analysis Structures function.

  1. Specify this information:
    Purchase Order Trans Ref Fmt
    The Purchase Order Transaction Format.
    Purchase Invoice Trans Ref Fmt
    The Purchase Invoice Transaction Reference Format.
    Receipt Note Ref Format
    The Receipt Note Reference Format.
    Other Fields
    Other fields.
    Duplicate Supplier Inv Refs
    If this box is checked it is possible to have duplicate supplier invoice numbers.
    Amend Purchase Order Lines
    If this box is checked it is possible to amend purchase order lines after they has been confirmed.
    Delete Order/Invoice Headers
    If this box is checked order headers are deleted when all lines on an order are deleted.
    Additional Ord Lines Permitted
    If this box is checked it is possible to delete, amend or add order lines once all lines on the order have been confirmed. Therefore, Order Confirmation must be defined as a required stage on the Purchase Type Setup for this to take effect. If some lines have been entered but not confirmed, you can still add new lines to the order.
    Duplicate PO Second Refs
    By default, it is not possible to have duplicate second references on purchase orders, that is, by default this field is set to Duplicates Not Allowed. However, you can select either Warn and Allow or Allow to enable duplicates to be used.
