Orders with a message may or may not need an update. As you work through the PO Lines in Tasks you will see the latest message from the buyer and be able to respond. Any PO Lines left in Messages after you have worked through the other tasks may need a response from you.
Understanding the View
When you are on the Tasks view, you can look at all orders that have a message under the Messages tab.
You can click through each PO line (in the middle column) which will change the PO details and actions that are displayed in the column on the right.
