The Purchase Order Export allows retailers to send purchase orders to the supplier through web services. The Purchase Order Response import allows retailers to verify the purchase orders in their system match the purchase orders in the supplier’s system by line.
The Purchase Order Response is returned at any given time after the Purchase Order request is submitted and displays information comparing what is on the order in Agvance and what the supplier has in their system. If the Purchase Order is changed, Winfield will contact the retailer to explain those changes and then the retailer should update the Purchase Order manually in Agvance. This can be used to see if there are differences between the original Purchase Order and what was entered into Winfield’s system.
