This article outlines a clear, step-by-step process to amend a product purchase order on Sync. 

 

PURPOSE

This function allows authorized users to amend a product purchase order (PPO) before it is issued to a supplier. Edits may include changes to dates, delivery details, quantities, or costs. Once a PPO is issued, any changes require re-issuance to the vendor. Permissions are required to set the PPO status to “Editing” and to modify line item details.

 

KEY BENEFITS

•           Flexible Order Management: Easily make changes to PPOs before issuing.

•           Improved Accuracy: Avoid errors by updating delivery dates, quantities, or pricing.

•           Vendor Communication: Ensures vendors always receive the correct version of the PPO.

•           Role-Based Access: Prevents unauthorized changes through permission controls.

1. From the Sync Homepage, Click on 'Search'
