Creating a Purchase Order from a Requisition
When you create a PO from a requisition, EAM pulls in all the data from the requisition and automatically enters it into the PO. This feature saves you time and ensures data integrity. If a PO is created from a requisition, the PO is directly tied to the requisition and the associated PO numbers appear in the Purchase Order submenu. See Viewing the POs Associated with a Requisition.
Follow these steps to create a PO from a requisition:
1 Open the Requisition browse and select the requisition.
2 Select Create Purchase Order from the Action menu.
A browse opens displaying the PO record. The system automatically assigns a PO number, which you cannot modify.

Creating POs from Multiple Requisitions
The Global Create Purchase Order action creates purchase orders from multiple requisitions. If there are multiple vendors on the requisitions, EAM consolidates the requisitions so that each PO has its own vendor.
Follow these steps to create a purchase order from multiple requisitions:
1 Open the requisition browse and select the requisitions.
2 Select Global Create Purchase Orders from the Action menu.
A browse opens displaying the POs. The system automatically assigns PO numbers, which you cannot modify.
