About purchase order status

In the header, you can assign a status to the purchase order.

You can run reports where the selection criteria allows you to view purchase orders with different statuses, for example, report (6-6-2) 21-Purchase Order List.

Status	Description
1-Open	Indicates the purchase order has been approved by someone with authority in the company to approve purchase orders.
2-Review	Indicates the purchase order should be reviewed by someone with authority in the company to review purchase orders. Important: Before you create an invoice, the purchase order should be reviewed. You can enter an invoice with a status of 2-Review, but the program warns you about it.
3-Dispute	Indicates a purchase order in dispute with the vendor. The authority reviewing the purchase order is disputing the charges, quantities, and so on, of the purchase order.
4-Closed	Indicates all items contained in the purchase order have been purchased or canceled.
5-Void	Indicates the purchase order is void.
6-Master	Tracks all materials to be purchased from the vendor for an entire project. With a master purchase order, you can create individual purchase orders to the vendor. The master allows you to control the ordering and shipping of materials to the job site.
