Spirit:  What do I do when a Parts PO status says “Change Order” instead of “Posted” when I want to receive it?

Updated on

Steps in the screenshots correspond to the numbers in the headings.

One of the reasons you will see the error message "No lines remain to be received for Purchase Order _____" is that the purchase order is in "Change Order" status.  This happens when a line on the PO has been altered AFTER the PO has been Posted by the Buyer, usually due to a cost change, etc.  When you receive this message, follow these steps to confirm if this is the case.

1. From the main menu, go to Inventory > Purchasing > Purchase Order.

2. Enter the PO ID number in the search field and click the green magnifying glass.

3. You may see more than one result.  The Requisition number is listed with a black border.  

4. The PO number is listed to the right of the Req number.

5. Click the record to load it in the right work panel. You can see in the center column the Status is Change Order.

6. In the lower right column, the Approval Status is Pending.

7. Click on the Events tab. In this case, the reason for the change order was not because of a price change but a quantity change.

8. The SCS should contact the Buyer and have them re-post the PO so that the updated quantity can be received as expected.
