Users can archive purchase orders from the New Purchase Orders tab, whether they are issued, approved or cancelled. To access the currently-archived purchase orders, click the Archived Purchase Orders tab.

Notes |
After logging into the Trade Portal for the first time, some older Purchase Orders will automatically appear as archived (in the Archived Purchase Orders tab). This is by design, and only the most recently-issued, approved and cancelled purchase orders maintained by the builder's software (BuilderMT's Workflow Management Suite version 4.5 and newer) will appear in the New Purchase Orders tab. Change orders and variances created by the builder in BuilderMT's Workflow Management Suite version 4.5 and newer will appear as individual purchase orders viewable by the trade user. It is recommended that the trade's Purchasing user or Administrator manually archive the appropriate purchase orders found in the New Purchase Orders tab after logging into the Trade Portal for the first time. |
To archive a purchase order:
In the purchase order’s
row, single-click the Archive
icon.
|
Tip |
Hovering the mouse over the icon displays the status of the PO. |
The Purchase Order screen refreshes itself, and the archived PO no longer appears in the New Purchase Orders tab.
The newly-archived PO now displays in the Archived Purchase Order tab, shown below.
If a user archived a purchase order, the date, time and user who archived it appears in the Archive Date and Archived By columns.
