Ordering external operations

When entering the External Work folder in Purchase (PUR) application from the Production Planning application (PRODPLAN) or from the selected Production Work Order (PWO), you order only one operation for the selected line.

When entering the External Work folder directly from PUR, you may order several external operations on the same purchase order by bulk handling. To open the Purchase (PUR) application, find Procurement in the RamBase menu and then Purchasing. Click Purchase handling to enter the PUR application.

Complete the following steps for ordering several external operations on one Purchase Order (SPO)

    1. It is possible to mark one, some or all of the documents by using the check-boxes or the drop-down menu above the check-boxes.

  2. Select an action

    1. Click the Select Action-button below the document list to open the Select action popup.
