Setting up purchase order types

You can create a list of purchase order types, allowing you to categorize purchase orders. A general contractor, for example, might create types to track jobs, work orders, inventory, vehicles, office, and professionals (attorneys, accountants).

The following is an example of purchase order types:

PO Type #

Type Name

1

Job Materials

2

Temp Utilities

3

Equipment

4

Office

To set up purchase order types:

1 Open 6-6-1 Purchase Orders.
2 Next to the Type list, click the detail button.
3 In the PO Type# cell, enter the type number.
4 In the Type Name cell, enter a description of the purchase type.
5 Repeat steps 3–4 for each type.
6 On the File menu, click Save.
