What This Process Does

  • PO transactions will be created to relieve the encumbrance.
  • PO distribution must subsequently be run so that posting of activity can occur in Financial Management.


Best Practice

  • Designated User – since ranging on source user is not feasible, it is highly recommended that one user in the organization be responsible for performing this process on a scheduled basis.


Requirement

  • Closed PO – Purchase order must be closed and have an outstanding balance to be selected.
