Creating Purchase Orders from Sales Orders / Backorders

Modified on Mon, 1 Dec at 8:38 AM

Erplain allows users to manage their purchases directly from a sales order.

The information is available in the "Purchases" section of any sales order.


The "Purchases" section contains several options, 2 or 3 depending on the status of your stock.

You can:

  • If your available and upcoming stock is not sufficient to deliver this order, you can create a purchase containing the missing quantities.

  • Create a purchase using the quantities from the sales order.

  • Make a stock adjustment from this order, in case the necessary quantities are in another location.


If you create a purchase from this order, you will then have the option to choose a supplier and then decide to create a new purchase or add these quantities to an active, existing purchase for the same supplier.


Once the purchase order is created, the "Sales Order" section of the document gives you a path to the original document.
