The Purchase Order (PO) Line Items View

Learn how to view the status of all line items on your purchase orders, giving you a detailed look at your purchase and receiving progress.

Updated over a week ago

While the main Purchase Orders view gives you a great high-level overview of an entire order, sometimes you need to get into the weeds. Think of it like a summary report versus a detailed transaction list. The PO Line Items view gives you that granular, item-by-item breakdown you need to manage your receiving process with precision. It allows you to track the exact status of each product, ensuring you know what's on its way, what has been received, and what has been rejected.

PO Line Items Overview

The PO Line Items view provides a detailed, line-by-line look at all the items within your purchase orders. It's designed to give you a more granular understanding of your receiving process compared to the main Purchase Orders table.

From this view, you can:

  • See a list of every individual item from all your purchase orders.

  • View the status of each line item separately, not just the overall order status.

  • Track key metrics like the quantity ordered, as well as how many items have been received or rejected.

  • Customize your view by grouping items by different columns, such as "expected item" or "vendor," to better organize your data.
