Once you enable our premium add-on ATUM Purchase Orders PRO, your purchase orders will look quite different. They will have more useful sections that we will explain in this article.

SUPPLIER'S INFO

• Supplier’s Reference: Set the reference of the supplier.
• Supplier’s Discount: If you make a Purchase Order setting a discount, it will mean that with that supplier you have an X % of discount. This field is automatically filled if the Supplier selected has this info registered. However, you can always change it manually in the Purchase Order.
• Expected at Location Date: Set when you expect to receive the items in the purchase order. This field is used to know if a Purchase Order is a 'late PO' or not, so it will be taken into account in how it is displayed in the Purchase Orders list page:

• Tax Rate: Set the Tax Rate for the Purchase Order. By default, it fills in the tax rate field when you create a PO (if the settings are set to take system taxes of Woocommerce). And this value can be overwritten when you add or change the supplier. If you have selected a Supplier and you have set a Tax Rate on the supplier page, it will be set to the Purchase Order. However, you can overwrite this value in the purchase order.
• Currency: By default, it fills in the currency field when you create a PO (if the settings are set to take the currency settings of Woocommerce). And this value can be overwritten when you add or change the supplier. If you have selected a Supplier and you have set a specific currency on the supplier page, it will be set to the Purchase Order. However, you can overwrite this value in the purchase order.

By clicking on the three dots button you can choose the currency options: Currency position, thousand separators, decimal separator, the number of decimals, and the exchange rate (if the PO currency is distinct from your default shop's currency).

Supplier discount, tax, and currency values ​​are added to PO items automatically when adding new ones.

Any change to discount, tax, or currency (either manually or by changing supplier), displays the conflict detection modal. In this case, we are about to change the 'Discount' value, and not that this pop up is displayed:


If you enable the switch, it will apply the changes to all items in the PO. Click on the 'APPLY CHANGES' button to save.
