Automatic Purchase Order - Edit - Merge Another Batch

Use this option to merge the currently displayed automatic purchase order batch with another batch. You might do this, for example, when two batches contain purchase orders for the same supplier; merging the batches means there will be a single purchase order per supplier.

  1. Display the Automatic Purchase Order screen.

Refer to "Automatic Purchase Order - Edit Menu Options".

  1. Select EDIT | MERGE ANOTHER BATCH.

Micronet displays a selection screen showing all current automatic purchase order batches.

  1. Select the batch you want to merge into the batch which is currently open.

If duplicate entries exist in the two batches, Micronet displays a warning message.

  1. Select the OK button.

Micronet displays a message asking what you want to do with the old batch.

  1. If you want to save the merged batch and delete the old one, select Yes. Otherwise select No to cancel the merge.

Micronet redisplays the Automatic Purchase Order screen.

If you selected No, the two batches remain unchanged and you can load either of them.

If you selected Yes, Micronet merges the two batches and saves them into a new batch. You can still load the merged batch but all the items have been deleted from it.
