Field Definitions: PO Compliance Form
The following is a list of field descriptions for the PO Compliance form. Many of the descriptions include links to other topics that provide additional information about or related to the topic.
PO#
Enter the purchase order number or press F4 to select a PO from a list.
The vendor associated with the selected purchase order will display in the upper portion of the form, and the compliance codes associated with the PO will display in the lower portion of the form.
If a compliance group was selected on the purchase order in the PO Purchase Order Entry form (Info tab> Compliance Group field), all compliance codes assigned to the compliance group will populate in the lower portion of the form. Compliance groups are created and maintained using the HQ Compliance Groups form.
Compliance Code
Enter the compliance code number or press F4 to select one from a list.
Compliance codes are created and maintained using the HQ Compliance Codes form.
You can add the same compliance code to a purchase order multiple times, for example Receipt of Material Safety Data Sheets or Receipt of Certifications of Specifications. Each duplicate compliance code will be assigned a unique sequence number. More
Sequence Number (Seq#)
This field is display only and identifies the sequence of each compliance code on the purchase order. If there is only one occurrence of each compliance code, the sequence number will always be 1.
If a compliance code is added to a purchase order multiple times (such as Receipt of Material Safety Data Sheets or Receipt of Certifications of Specifications), the Seq # will be the next sequential number for that occurrence of the compliance code.

Supplier
If this compliance code relates to an additional vendor/supplier (2nd party), enter the vendor number (from AP Vendors). If you do not know the vendor number, enter the vendor sort name, or press F4 for a list of vendors.
If this compliance code relates only to the vendor on the purchase order, leave this field blank.
Verify
This field initially defaults according to the selection in HQ Compliance Codes .
Check this box if this compliance should be verified in Accounts Payable. Verification depends on flags checked in AP Company Parameters , on the Audit Options tab. If compliance is not met, then you may be warned at the time of invoice entry, invoices may not be pulled for payment, or you may just receive a warning on the AP Payment Preview with Compliance report, which is run when payments are selected.
Do not check this box if compliance does not need to be verified in AP.
Exp Date
For Date type compliance codes, specify the date this code is effective through.
If using the Verify feature, this date is checked when printing the AP Payment Preview With Compliance report. If the code has expired (expiration date is older than the invoice date), a warning displays stating that the purchase order is out of compliance.
