The Purchase Order Reconciliation report shows whether the dollar value of received inventory matches the original purchase order amount within a specified date range.
Things to know:
- The ability to access this report is governed by the "Accessing Reports" access control settings
- The report is useful to identify discrepancies between what was ordered and what was received
- Discrepancies may result from:
- Receiving fewer or more items than ordered
- Manual edits to the PO after receipt
- The data displayed in the report depends on how the filters are configured. Here's how the filters affect what is shown:
- No Data Displayed:
- If no purchases were made at the selected location within the chosen date range, the report will display no data.
- Date Range, Date and Status Filters Work Together:
- The results depend on the date range filter (e.g., Ordered, Completed), the date filter (i.e., the selected dates), and the status filter (e.g., Ordered, Completed).
- Example: If the date filter is set from July 15, 2025, to July 29, 2025:
- If no purchase orders were placed during that time but some were completed within that period:
- With date range filter set to "Completed" and status filter set to "Ordered", the report will show purchase orders completed during the date range, even if they were ordered earlier.
- If you then change the status filter to "Completed", the report will show only purchase orders that were both ordered and completed within the selected date range.
- If you change the date range filter to "Ordered", and no orders were placed during that time, the report will show no data.
- Example 2: If the date filter is set from July 25, 2025, to August 1, 2025:
- When the date range filter is set to "Ordered" and the status filter is set to "Cancelled", the report will display only the purchase orders that were both ordered and cancelled within that date range.
- If you change the date range filter to "Completed" while keeping the status filter set to "Cancelled", the report will display all purchase orders cancelled within that date range, regardless of when they were ordered.
