12.11 Formatting PO and Pick Order Numbers

Pro and Enterprise Versions Only

Note: For information on the benefits of upgrading your version of InventoryControl or WaspNest
Inventory, please select Help > Benefits of Upgrading on the Main screen.

To make creating Purchase Orders and Pick Orders easier, InventoryControl allows you to set up auto-
generated numbers. This allows you to quickly create sequential numbers by clicking the Generate
button on the Create New Purchase Order and Create New Pick Order screens.

InventoryControl allows you to enter custom text, dates and/or counters, in any combination, to create a
unique identifier that is meaningful to your business. You should set up your numbers to contain a date
field, followed by a serialized count field, at the very least.

Formatting Purchase Order and Pick Order Numbers:

1. From

the

Main screen, click the Receive/Pick icon. The Receive/Pick menu appears at the

bottom of the screen.

2. On

the

Receive/Pick menu, click Number Formats. A menu appears allowing you to select to

customize Purchase Order Numbers (PO Number) or Pick Order Numbers (Order Number).

3. Click

on

Purchase Order Numbers or Pick Order Numbers, depending on what you want to

customize. The screen for these two are identical so for this example, we are going to select PO
Numbers
. The Define PO Number Format screen appears.
