Purchase Orders

Public Preview: Asset Lifecycle is in public preview. The functionality and API surface may evolve in future releases.

A purchase order records equipment ordered from a vendor to fulfill the requirements of a BOM. A single BOM may be fulfilled by one or more purchase orders - for example, to split an order across multiple vendors or to place follow-up orders as requirements evolve.

Each line item on a purchase order references a BOM line item, binding the order back to the original requirement. Equipment arrivals are recorded as shipments against the purchase order.
