After the PO (Purchase Order) is confirmed and sent to the supplier, the supplier may respond with an Acknowledgement that they have received the PO, and that they intend to fulfil it. When an Acknowledgement is entered, the PO status is updated to Acknowledged, and it will show the Expected Date on the Sales Reps’ app.
A PO can be Acknowledged with optional ‘Expected Date’ and ‘Vendor Reference’.
