The footer or ending routine requires some final information (freight and tax) to complete the purchase order receipt. You cannot access the ending routine if you do not enter line items on the PO receipt. In the Footer for Purchase Order dialog box, the system displays a new total (running total of all line-item extensions plus tax, plus freight, etc.). The new total is initially equal to the purchase order total amount, but is redisplayed whenever an adjustment (tax, freight, etc.) is made in the ending routine. At the end of the ending routine, the new total represents the total amount of the purchase order same as above.
After you create a receipt and access the footer section of PO Receipt Entry or Non-PO Receipt Entry, the system displays the Update option via the Update button, depending on how the update processing fields of PO Static Control F/M are set.
Tip: When you press Enter or Tab, the additional fields that appear, such as reference number, freight Code, a buyer code, etc., depend on the settings selected in PO Entry Options F/M. This topic details all possible entries. Most of these entries already display default information; you can modify these values.
The ending routine consists of final fields prior to completion of the purchase order receipt. The ending routine is not accessible if no line-items have been entered. Ending routine information is displayed on the bottom portion of the screen and a new total is displayed in the lower right (running total of all line-item extensions plus tax, plus freight, etc.). The new total is initially equal to the purchase order total amount, but is redisplayed whenever an adjustment (tax, freight, etc.) is made in the ending routine. At the end of the ending routine, the new total represents the total amount of the purchase order same as above.
1. Freight
Through the Include Freight flag in the purchase orders static control record, the user establishes whether freight is to be entered. If the flag is set to N, no freight is included and this field is skipped. If freight is included, enter the freight amount (.00-9999.99). Press Enter (CR) to default to 0. Press F4 to back up to the prompt-selection field.
2. Factor
Enter the means to factor the freight; i.e., divide the freight equally over the line-item costs. The freight factor is stored and not displayed in the screen. The freight factor is applied to the cost of line-items during the Receipt Register. Enter U-to divide the freight by the total units, W-to divide the freight by the total pounds, $-to divide the freight by the dollar amount, or N-to not factor the freight at all. Press Enter to initially defaults to the Default Freight Factor flag stored in the purchase orders static control record.
3. Tax %
Through the Include Tax flag in the purchase orders static control record, the user establishes whether tax is to be entered. If the flag is set to N, no tax is included and this field is skipped. If tax is included, enter the tax percent. The amount is calculated and displayed. If the Taxable flag is set to N then only items with the taxable flag in the inventory item file set to Y are subject to tax, otherwise only those lines that a Y was entered for field #26.
4. Update
Accesses the optional Update feature to update the receipt, which will adjust item and warehouse quantities. Refer to the Update Window topic for detailed information about this feature.
