PO1201 Purchase Order and Receiving Comment Code File Maintenance

Comment Code File Maintenance

Application Overview

 Comments may be entered for each line item on a purchase order, or they may be associated with the order as a whole. Comments are a means by which you may communicate specific instructions to the vendor regarding the purchase or shipment of items on your order.

Comments may be entered on the purchase order as a free‑form entry, or they may be assigned to the order by means of Comment Codes. By using Comment Codes, you will have access to a file of canned comments that have been standardized and approved for inclusion on vendor correspon­dence. 

In order applications where a Comment Code is entered, there will be an option available to the operator to display each of the Comment Codes that are on file, one at a time, until the correct comment displays. This feature eliminates the need for the operator to memorize the Comment Codes or search through a listing.
