You can create a multi-delivery purchase order by combining standard purchase orders into one. Once combined, the original orders are converted to deliveries and a new multi-purchase “parent” order is created.
You can only combine purchase orders if the orders in the batch meet the following criteria:
Has an order type of purchase order
Has an order status of type Draft or Active
Assigned to the same vendor as the other purchase orders
In the same currency as the other purchase orders
Has no linked assemblies
Has no inventory receipts
Is not read-only (i.e. has not been saved to an external platform)
Combining purchase orders
To combine multiple purchase orders into one multi-delivery PO, navigate to the Stock orders list.
Find and select the purchase orders to combine. Then click Bulk actions > Combine purchase orders.
If the selected orders can’t be combined, you’ll see an error stating which orders couldn’t be combined and why.
Other properties like prices, discounts, taxes and order settings can be different across the selected orders. If that’s the case, you’ll see a warning, and if you choose to continue combining orders, the resulting multi-delivery purchase order inherits the relevant details from the first purchase order in the list.
Once combined, the original orders will no longer be visible in the Stock orders list. The new multi-delivery purchase order is displayed instead.
