Erplain users can consolidate a number of sales order into a single purchase order for a supplier. This is especially useful when managing multiple backorders for multiple customers with the same supplier.
Note : This only works with sales orders, not with estimates
To consolidate orders, you have to start from a sales order. From there, the backorder section allows you to create a purchase based on the current order.
You will then have the chance to select the supplier for each product.
Note : Please make sure that the location of the sales order matches the location of the purchase order you want to add products to
Once that's done, you can either create a new purchase order with those products or add them to an existing one.
If you choose to add them to an existing purchase order, the document will be updated and the products added to that purchase.
Going back to that purchase order, you will also be able to see how many orders have been grouped into this one purchase order.
