PO22

PO22.1 - Authorization/Release

Use this form to review and release all the unreleased purchase orders for a
particular buyer. You can release orders that exceed any of the buying limits
for the buyer or vendor or standard order. Buying limits include maximum
purchasing amounts and minimum and maximum quantity limits. These limits are
defined for the buyer in MA04.1 (Buyer) and for the vendor in PO10 (Vendor).
If a purchase order line includes a warning that indicates a limit was
exceeded, you can use the Message Review subform to look up the specific limit
that was exceeded. Since you can also limit buyers to purchasing items within
a particular purchasing class, you can use this form to approve and release
any items a buyer purchases outside his or her limits.

To display the unreleased orders, inquire on the buyer code. To release an
order that is displayed, select the Change form action and the Release line
action. An order must include at least one line to be released.
