Which products can be added to purchase orders?
Only products with Track Inventory set to Yes can be added to purchase orders. Product codes for services and items that do not use inventory tracking cannot be selected. Track Inventory can be enabled at the individual product level in the product settings or for the product type.
Mark a Purchase Order as Received
Select the purchase order to open the order details.
The Received Quantity field for each product defaults to the value originally entered in the Quantity Ordered field. You can edit this quantity as needed.
Select Mark as Received.
The purchase order displays in the table in the Received status.
Do received purchase orders update the Inventory Counts report?
Yes. In the Inventory Counts report, the Inventory In Stock column count updates for products in purchase orders when the order is marked as Received.
Example: A purchase order is created for 100 units of Cat Treats. The current stock count for Cat Treats is 50. When the purchase order is marked as Received and the Received Quantity is 100, the Inventory Counts report displays the total Inventory In Stock for Cat Treats as 150.
