Manage Purchase Orders - Total Return Amount

ben-auer

Good morning,

Has anyone else noticed that there is no way to bring in the total return amount for a purchase order as a column in "Manage PO's"? 

When doing spend verification we have had to take extra steps to calculate the PO amount vs the return amount to get totals for spend for that vendor.  Our buyers could also use this to follow up on returns, get an idea on flow of goods, and our analysis when determining usage or order volume. 

I am proposing that Infor make that information available in "Manage Purchase Orders". Would like them to add new column in "Manage Purchase Orders" that displays the total return amount for that purchase order.

I have entered ER#89301 for this

Thank you,

Ben

I haven't evaluated this explicitly, but it seems like if an existing relation doesn't exist you should be able to create a relation from the PurchaseOrder to VendorReturn to be able add the return value to the lists on the Manage Purchase Orders page. Have you already tried that? Of course this assumes your vendor returns are created using the "Create From Purchase Order" action and have a "CreatedFromPurchaseOrder" value.
