Display PO# from purchasing on line items

you should be able to see from a product within a job which PO it was attached to

I had a great conversation with Ty today. I do not spend much time on these type areas of conversation/suggestions so bear with me on the longer post.
Our biggest struggle is scheduling Work Orders and coordinating customer orders with products received vs needing to be purchased. Ty informed me an order is immediately turned to a production card within the system and this just seems wrong considering the majority of companies do not produce orders within 24 hours of the customer placing their order.
My suggestion is to not send a customer order to a production card until we create a Purchase Order or deem the products of the order In Stock. Seems to me if you can write the program to create a production card when a customer order is generated then you can create a production card when a Purchase order/In Stock status is generated for the product in the Needs Purchasing area.
This will also resolve another issue I'm sure everyone has dealt with at one time....partial orders. One customer order has 4 items and often times it is the same item but in different sizes, ie YS x 1, YL x 1, AS x 1, AM x 1. Rather than bulking the entire order to a production card there should be a way for the individual sizes to go to production cards. This way if there is a back order issue or an imprinting mistake within a run we can choose the specific size within an order to be adjusted.
Thank you from a little shop with BIG goals.

Brad Busbin This would be fantastic. It is exactly the problem we are having. you create a job with like logo's but only half the products arrive. It is extremely difficult to remove the correct product from the job because you can't tell which item is missing

Show if product has been received on production tab
Cole Weinman
The production tab is really not helpful if it doesn't allow us to see what has actually been marked a received. We only want to assign products to a job if we have them. It should be a column on the production tab that says either "Received" or "Not Received" or "Needs Purchasing"

POs need to be tied to production orders
Heath Burchinal
Reciving PO's then distributing them to their respective Production Order is a nightmare. PO's need to be tied to production orders so when products arrive you receiving knows exactly which production order it goes to. Currently it only shows the customers orders which dont help when you have hundreds of orders spread out over multiple closed stores and multiple Production Orders. The process should be create your production order then create your PO that way it documents where it belongs.

I've chatted with Ty about this. It would be faster to jump from the job screen directly to the Purchase Order #.
Currently we are free typing the PO from the wholesaler in the job notes, and printing off the work order to sort the items. We then go back to the purchasing screen if needed when checking the accuracy of an order. We then find the "reference #" which for us is our PO we assign to the wholesaler.
Then go back to S&S, and search for the missing style.
The same connection should be when viewing the received tab in the purchasing screen. It would be faster to list each job # for the items purchased. The order # is listed, so we click that, to find the job number or numbers.
And for the orders screen as well. I want the ability to quickly find the POs that the items within that order was placed under, so I quickly reference the PO or reference #, then jump to our wholesaler to find the status of the garment, if it was even ordered, or potentially why the incorrect one was sent.
We need the visibility of all (3) job #, order #, and purchase order # with in each of those screens.

We might want to start a job before the product is there (eg: if it needs transfers to be made or even ordered), but at the very least we should not be able to move to a job unless the item is purchased, received, or in stock.
