Purchase Management FAQ

Common questions about HVI's purchase order management.

PO number (auto), title, description, due date, vendor (select from directory), requester, priority (General/Emergency), PO type (Subcontracting etc.), link to work order and vehicle, shipping address (site project, recipient, address, city, postal code), PO items list, attachments, terms and conditions, and cost summary (sub total + sales tax + shipping = total cost).

Purchase orders go through an approval workflow. New POs start as "Waiting for Approval" and appear in the PO Approval queue. Managers review the PO details, items, cost, and vendor, then approve or reject. Approved POs move to "Ordered" status, then "Received" when parts arrive.

Demand Parts auto-flags items when inventory drops below minimum stock levels. Each demand record shows SKU, part details, quantity needed, who demanded it (System or user), priority, status (Open or PO Generated), linked PO number, and linked work order or vehicle. Create demands manually or let the system generate them automatically.

Three ways: Pick from Demand List (items already flagged for ordering), Scan Parts (barcode scan from inventory), or Pick from Parts List (select directly from parts inventory). Each item shows item number, name, quantity, item cost, and total cost.

Each vendor record includes: Vendor ID, Vendor Name, Contact Person, Work Email, Mobile number, Address, and City. Vendors are linked to their purchase orders for pricing history and order tracking. Select vendors directly from the directory when creating POs.

Five statuses: Emergency (urgent orders flagged for immediate action), Waiting for Approval (pending manager review), Approved (cleared for ordering), Ordered (sent to vendor), and Received (parts delivered). Overdue badges appear on POs past their delivery date.

Yes. Each purchase order can be linked to a specific work order and vehicle. This connects the procurement chain to the maintenance chain — you can see which POs were created for which repairs on which vehicles, with full cost traceability.

Yes. The PO cost summary includes: Sub Total (sum of all item costs), Sales Tax, Shipping Charges, and Total Cost. Attachments and Terms & Conditions can also be added to each purchase order for complete documentation.
