Item/Vendor Relationship Inquiry - Purpose
PO840E
The Item/Vendor Relationship Inquiry program (PO840E) allows the user to inquire into selected records on the Item/Vendor Relationship file (PO140M1) and the related comments on the Item/Vendor Relationship Comment file (PO140M2). There are five screens in the conversation:
· Function Select screen: The user enters a part number and/or a vendor number, an inquiry request (Vendors by Item, Items by Vendor, or Selected Item/Vendor Relationship) and optional selection criteria.
· Vendor List Screen: All vendors supplying the part requested on the Function Select screen are displayed. The user may select one line for detailed display.
· Item List Screen: All parts supplied by the vendor requested on the Function Select screen and meeting the other selection criteria are displayed. The user may select one line for detailed display.
· Detail Screen: The detail data for one item/vendor relationship is displayed. This screen may be displayed directly from the Function Select screen if both a vendor and part have been entered, or from one of the list screens by selecting a line for detailed display.
· Comment Screen: If the selected detail item/vendor relationship has comments, they may be displayed on this screen.
The user may enter the Item/Vendor Relationship Maintenance program (PO140E) by pressing F9 - Enter Maintenance from the Function Select screen or the detail screen. If entered from the detail screen, the company, warehouse, plant, item number, and vendor number are passed to the maintenance program.
The user may enter the Quotation Inquiry program (PO850E) by pressing F14 - Display Quotations from the detail screen. The company, warehouse, part number, and vendor number are passed to the inquiry program.
