Enabling/Disabling PO Line Types

When creating a PO line (see Manually Creating a PO Line), you must assign it a PO line type, or purchase type. When creating a PO line manually, for example after searching in the repository, certain enabled PO line types are presented as recommended, depending on the bibliographic record for which you are creating the PO line. However, all enabled PO line types can be assigned to the PO line (except when creating a PO line after searching the inventory for an electronic collection or portfolio; see the table below).

You can enable or disable PO line types on the PO Line Type mapping table page (Acquisitions > Acquisitions Configuration > Configuration Menu > Purchase Orders > PO Line Types). No other changes can be made on this page. For more information about mapping tables, see Mapping Tables.

For more information, see Explanation of Purchase Types Workflow and Inventory.

To enable or disable a PO lines type, click the checkmark in the relevant row and then click Save. Disabled PO lines types are not available to assign to PO lines. Disabling a PO line type has no effect on existing PO lines with that type.

The following table lists the purchase types on this page. N/A indicates that the purchase type is not available for the item/order type after searching the repository for that resource type and clicking Order.
