Check for Duplicate Orders Based on Purchase Order Numbers
Order Entry uses the settings in the Accounts Receivable customer record to decide whether it checks for duplicate purchase order numbers and what it does if it finds them.
Use the Check For Duplicate POs option on the Invoicing tab in the customer record to select the behavior that you want:
-
Select None if you do not want Order Entry to check for duplicate purchase order numbers.
-
If you want Order Entry to check for duplicates, select the type of message you want to display — a warning or an error message that blocks you from entering a document with the duplicate PO number.
Note: The program will check for duplicate POs on active orders, future orders, and shipments) — not on quotes or standing orders.
