Viewing Purchase Orders is only available when Framework Orders Integration is installed and running.
...
By linking Purchase Orders to Framework Construction Logistics activities by the cost centre, these linked orders can then be viewed in Framework and Framework Construction Logistics Tablet.
Benefits Of Viewing And Linking Orders
Within Framework you can view Purchase Order (PO) information without having to log into your ordering system where they are produced. This could potentially save on ordering system licensing costs for those who require view-only access.

When utilising Framework Construction Logistics you have the ability to view and link Purchase Order Cost Centres to the Logistics Cost Centres, allowing for pre-approval for the PO to be captured against the individual Logistics Activity when deemed complete.
Requirements
A pre-requisite to view Purchase Orders is to have Framework Orders Integration installed and running. Framework Orders integration imports printed Purchase Orders from the ordering system on a nightly basis.
To link orders you must be using Framework Logistics Call Forward Programmes either via Framework or Framework Construction Logistics. This links Orders and Purchase orders with the Logistics Activities.
