Sell off of a purchase order

This is part of the Purchasing Add-on Module only.

Note: There are two ways to sell items from a specific purchase order. Using In Transit is only one of the ways.

Marking a purchase order as “In Transit” will add inventory to In Transit location and allow you to allocate inventory to orders and run availability against expected inventory yet to be received.

1. Navigate to your purchase order.
2. Be sure that the status of the order is “Confirmed”. You may use the Change Status button in the taskbar if needed.
3. Click on In Transit in the taskbar, then Yes to confirm. *Please note: These items are not yet going to appear in your inventory, but when doing allocation on a sales order, you will see these items listed with the location “In Transit”.
