The Purchase Oder Module will help to keep track of purchase orders that are either associated with specific jobs and or just general purchase orders.
PrintPoint will automatically generate two types of PO's that are associated with a job:
Paper PO
Outside Service PO
A Paper PO is produced based on the paper chosen during the estimaing of the job and is associated with that job.
Outside ServicePO's that are associated with Jobs are generated using the flexibility of PrintPoints post-press database to access the Outside Service subsection of an estimate. An Outside Service can be any kind of an outsourced activity, not limited to finishing/bindery/post-press. For example, you could add Outsourced Printing in the Post-Press/Outside Service subsection if you are not doing the printing yourself and require that service to have a PO. PrintPoint will then automatically generate a PO for the service once the estimate is comverted into a job.
A General PO is something like padding glue or paper that you keep in stock. A PO can be generated for these items but will not have to be associated with a job.
