Create a bill from a PO

You can create bills automatically from a PO.

Open and review the PO details

  1. Go to Projects and select the appropriate project in the Quick Select section.
  2. On the Project Home page, select POs in the Procurement section.
  3. Optionally, use the Search field to filter the PO listing.
  4. Select the PO number from the list to open the PO Information page.
  5. Compare the PO's item unit prices and quantities with the vendor's invoice, so no discrepancies occur.

    For partial deliveries, the bill's item quantity can be less than the PO.
