The Prepare Vendor Purchase Order window allows you to select the line items from a job that will appear on a purchase order and generate a purchase order document.
In this example job, each line item has a different supplier associated with it. The Vendor dropdown list lets you select for which supplier you want to generate a PO. In this picture, supplier 98740 - XJD Corporation was selected.
If a PO had already been generated for the selected supplier on this job, the items on the PO would show in this list. Since this is the first PO for this supplier on this job, the list is empty.
The list at the bottom of the window shows the items on the job, associated with the selected vendor, that have not already been included on another PO. The 'X' to the left of the item listed indicates that this item is selected for the PO.
