2.12 GNS: Is there a table with GNS IDs, PO Categories, and Examples?

Updated on

It is very important that you use the proper GNS Line Code when creating a Goods and Services Purchase Order.

Whenever possible, if an ATS part number exists, it should be used instead of the a GNS request for  Maint_Supplies and Office Supplies.  This is especially true when ordering Harvard Merchandise, etc.

Here are some examples of which GNS IDS are used for what kinds of orders.

GNS ID USED WITH GNS PO CATEGORY Requires  Work Order Keys off of $ or Qty SUGGESTED ITEMS
Misc - DO NOT USE
N/A N/A N/A As of 7/03/2018, MISC will no longer be used as a GNS ID.  Any previously processed POs using this Line Code will remain as is.  Do NOT change the existing data or the system will not process correctly.
