How to Create and Manage Purchase Order Quotes in C2W Inventory

Purchase Order Quotes work like Purchase Orders but do not add inventory. Use them to prepare purchasing details before an order is confirmed with a vendor. You can create a new Purchase Order Quote or convert an existing Purchase Order into a quote.

Create a Purchase Order Quote

01
From the Main Menu, navigate to Purchase Order.
02
On the Purchase Order screen, select the Vendor and enter any additional order details as needed.
03
Select the items you want to quote and enter the appropriate quantities and pricing.
04
Check the Quoted? box.
05
Click Save.

Once saved, the order is identified as a Purchase Order Quote.

Note

A Purchase Order Quote does not add inventory.

Convert a Purchase Order Quote to a Purchase Order

When you are ready to proceed with the purchase:

01
Open the Purchase Order Quote.
02
Uncheck the Quoted? box.
03
Click Save.

The quote is now a regular Purchase Order, and you can continue with the normal Purchase Order workflow.

Tip

You don’t need to create the Purchase Order again. The vendor, items, quantities, pricing, and other information already entered on the quote remain on the order.

Convert an Existing Purchase Order to a Quote

You can also convert an existing Purchase Order into a Purchase Order Quote:

01
Open the Purchase Order.
02
Check the Quoted? box.
03
Click Save.

The Purchase Order is now identified as a Purchase Order Quote.

Quick Reference:

  •  Quoted? checked = Purchase Order Quote
  • Quoted? unchecked = Purchase Order

Find and View Purchase Order Quotes

01
From the Main Menu, navigate to Purchase Order > Manage Purchase Order.
02
Use the search and filter options on the left side of the Manage Purchase Order screen to locate the order.
03
Use the Quoted column to identify or filter Purchase Order Quotes.
04
Select the Purchase Order Quote from the list to open it.

Purchase Order Quotes are identified by a selected checkbox in the Quoted column. You can also narrow your search using options such as date range, Order#/Ref.#, Vendor, Item, Inventory Status, or Payment Status.
