Following PO Generation by Sales Order

Hi Guys,

When I create a Sales Order via order entry in admin, is there a way to have
following Purchase Orders to be generated to respective vendors and filled
with all the data so I would just need to review them, edit if needed and
approve?

Thanks for any tips.

Iain,

Thank you for the help. I followed your algorithm and was able to get to the
"create quick PO link".

I do this using the Requirements subsystem. You need to decide whether 
requirements should be generated based on QoH, ATP, etc. You should 
select the default reqs in the product store setting, but you can 
override this at the product level if you want/need to.

Once you raise a SO, the system will determine whether you have 
sufficient stock on hand to satisfy the order and whether requirements 
should be generated for the stock. Assuming this is the case, you go 
into the Requirements screens and Approve the requirements, and then 
jump to the Approved Requirement screen, select the relevant suppliers, 
and click on the "Create Purchase Order" link at the bottom.

I'm sure others will recommend using the MRP subsystem, but I'm running 
a 12/06 version of OFBiz and the MRP stuff doesn't work too well in this 
old version - migration to the latest and greatest is WIP :-)
