POP - Open Purchase Orders By Age

Select Order and Supplier ranges

Ageing: The ageing of an order is based on the amount of time that has passed between the Transaction’s Entry Date and the Default Transaction Date.
This then applies to all three periods. Each period may then have its own amount of time which does not have to be a multiple of any other period but must be greater than the prior period and less than the next. The periods are numbered 1 through 3 starting from the left.

Orders are reported as being current, i.e. less old than period 1, equal to or older than Order or Account Number order period 1 and younger than period 2, equal to or older than period 2 and younger than period 3, and equal to or older than period 3.

Sort by: Status:
The system allows you to part deliver and part invoice a sales order any number of times before you finally complete or cancel the order. Every item on an open order and an order itself can have nothing delivered (None), part of the order quantity delivered (Part) or all of the order quantity delivered (Full). Similarly an open order can be not yet invoiced at all (None), invoiced in part (Part) or in full (Full). Choose the combination of check boxes to produce the report containing only those orders that satisfy the selection. The check boxes are “sticky” so the combination you select will be remembered the next time you use the form. Some check boxes will be greyed out if your parameter settings disable that part of the order process.
