How it works in practice

01

Link every PO to the supplier and project it belongs to

A PO without context creates problems later. In HVAC Flow, every PO is linked to a Supplier account, the Opportunity it's for, and optionally the Customer BOQ or Brand BOQ that drove the purchase decision.

  • Link PO to Supplier account, Opportunity, BOQ Customer or BOQ Brand
  • Ship-to address selection per PO — for deliveries to multiple sites
  • Multiple line items with unit cost, quantity, discount and tax per line

02

Full line-item detail with cost, tax and delivery address

Every line on the PO has unit cost, quantity, discount percentage, GST rate and total. The PO summary shows subtotal, total tax and grand total. Ship-to addresses from the linked customer account can be selected per PO.

  • Unit cost, quantity, discount and GST rate per line — auto-computed totals
  • GST rate per line for mixed-rate purchase orders
  • Export to PDF and Excel for sharing with suppliers

Non-editable once submitted — a complete audit trail

Once a PO is submitted, it cannot be edited. This prevents backdating, scope changes after supplier acknowledgment, and disputes about what was actually ordered. Cancellation preserves the original record.

  • PO is fully locked once submitted — no post-submission edits possible
  • Cancelled PO preserved as a record — not deleted
  • Copy PO function: create a new Draft from any existing PO for repeat orders

The Inward (GRN) module lets you create a receipt against a submitted PO. Each line item on the PO appears in the GRN — you record how many units were actually received. Partial receipts are supported.
