All purchase orders sent from ESP Orders will be available in the Purchase Order History section.

Each purchase order will be displayed with the available information. All purchase order listings will contain the following information:

  • Purchase order number
  • Sent date
  • Sales representative
  • Supplier name and ASI number (if applicable)

Each listing will also contain three options:

  • View button: This will open the purchase order in a new tab.
  • Request Status: This will open an email form which can be sent to the supplier.
  • Add Vendor Reference: This option enables the distributor to update the order status.

  • In-Hands Date
  • Share purchase order status option

  • Vendor order number
  • Expected ship date

The Request Status button will send an email to the supplier requesting an update on the status of the purchase order. You will be able to edit the information within this email prior to sending.

The Add Vendor Reference button opens a window where you can add a vendor order number, status, expected ship date and expected delivery date. After you have entered the pertinent information, click on the Save button.
