Issue orders

After an order is authorized, you must issue the order, and send it to the vendor for completion.

If your organization uses integration APIs to communication with Spec 2000 vendors, order messages are sent automatically when you issue an order.

  1. On your to-do list, My Open Orders tab, under the PO column, click the required order number.
    Note: The Order Number is editable until you issue the order.
  2. On the order details page, click Issue Order.
  3. On the Issue page, enter a note and click OK or OK and Print.
    Note: You can authorize and issue an order at the same time, if you have the necessary authorization level and permissions enabled. If you edit an order line such that the resulting price of the order is less than the limit price for your authorization level, the order will remain in the Authorized status. Conversely, if the resulting price of order is more than the limit for which you have been authorized, the order goes back to the Open status.

After an order is issued, you can monitor its status on your to-do list's My Open Orders tab.

If your organization uses AeroBuy Parts Purchasing for issuing purchase orders to Spec 2000 vendors, if you change part lines, you must issue the PO again so the updates are communicated to the vendor.
