How do I change the status of a purchase order?

PO statuses follow a one-way lifecycle: CreatedRaisedUpdatedPartially deliveredDeliveredReconciled. You cannot move a PO backward in the lifecycle (for example, from Raised back to Created). To advance:

  • Created → Raised — Select the PO and click Raise (or use bulk raise for multiple POs). This requires the Raise order permission.

  • Raised → Delivered — Click Deliver and enter delivery details. Partial deliveries keep the PO in Raised status.

  • Delivered → Reconciled — Click Close to finalize the PO. This step is permanent.
