How do purchase orders and PO lines work?

Purchase Orders and PO Lines

Purchase orders help TCC connect field usage to committed cost. Materials and subcontractor entries can be linked to a PO line when the project uses commitment tracking.

During daily entry

  1. Enter the material or subcontractor work for the correct project/date.
  2. Select the activity code, payment item, CWP, and work order if applicable.
  3. If TCC suggests a PO line, review it before saving. Accept the match only if the supplier, item, and scope are correct.
  4. If the quantity or cost exceeds the remaining PO balance, enter the required reason or flag it for admin review.

If no PO line appears, the PO may not exist, may not be linked to the project/activity, or the supplier/material naming may not match. Admins should review purchase-order setup and catalog naming before rollout.
