The Mission
Planned Orders allows a buyer or planner to leave orders in a Planned status in Syteline until acknowledged and/or updated by the supplier in SourceDay. This can help to manage some of the buyer and supplier back and forth on cost, quantity and dates prior to the order being activated.
Understanding the View
This feature is currently only available for Syteline ERP integrations and requires additional integration work by SourceDay.
The trigger from Syteline to allow SourceDay to display planned orders.
- The Header of the PO needs to be in “Ordered” status
- The Line(s) of the PO needs to be in “Planned” status
When the Planned Orders feature is enabled by SourceDay, buyers and suppliers will now see these planned orders in the Planned tab. Once planned orders sync into SourceDay a notification will be sent to suppliers to take action, just like they would on a new Purchase Order. The orders will display an Order Status of Planned.
