# PO-K Close Purchase Orders

## Purpose of program

Use this program to manually close a purchase order that has not been fully received. Normally, purchase orders get closed automatically when fully received through [PO-C](https://forum.evoerp.com/t/po-c-receive-purchase-orders/90/1) and invoiced through [AP-C](https://forum.evoerp.com/t/ap-c-enter-purchase-order-invoices/989/1). You may, however, decide to cancel a purchase order before it is fully received, in which case you would use this program to close it and transfer the records to the PO History files.

## General Program Operation

Enter a range of PO Numbers, PO Dates and Vendor Codes. Indicate whether to use the latest Actual Received Date (ARD) as the effective close date or enter a date to be used. The effective close date is the date the receipt will be removed from [PO-I-F](https://forum.evoerp.com/t/po-i-f-print-received-not-invoiced/150/1) report. All Purchase Orders falling within the specified ranges will be closed. If a PO within the range has items unreceived or Received but not Invoiced, you will be warned but will be allowed to close the PO. If a PO has items in QC Inspection, you will not be allowed to close the PO. If you close a PO by mistake, it can be reopened in [PO-D](https://forum.evoerp.com/t/po-d-view-po-receivers/140/1).

Note: If you are using this program to close old POs that are listed on the [PO-I-F](https://forum.evoerp.com/t/po-i-f-print-received-not-invoiced/150/1) report that should not be, once the report is cleaned up, you will most likely have to make a Journal entry to correct the balance in the PO/RNI GL Account. Closing a PO makes no GL or Inventory transactions.
