  22. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps • 1. Begin by selecting Purchasing> Purchase Orders> Reconcile POs> Reconciliation Workbench to display the PO Reconciliation Workbench Search page.

  23. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps • 2. Select a Workbench ID. In this example, the Workbench ID is CLOSE PO. • If using the process for the first time, users must create a Workbench ID. • Select the Add a New Value Tab • Select or Verify that your Business Unit is correct in the Business Unit Field • Create your Workbench ID by typing a name in the Workbench ID Field, such as PO_CLOSE • Click the Add Button

  24. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 3. The PO Reconciliation Workbench - Filter Options page displays.

  25. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 4. The PO Reconciliation Workbench page displays. This page shows the results of the search.  The key piece of information on this page is the Last Activity column.  If the last activity is within the last 30 days, the purchase order will not qualify for closure.  In this screen you will need to select the purchase order(s) that you want to attempt to process.

  26. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 4. Then click on the Close button to allow the application to validate whether or not the purchase order meets the criteria for closure.

  27. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 5. If you have selected multiple purchase orders, click “Clear All.” Core-CT removes the checkmark in the checkbox to the left of each purchase order that display in the PO Reconciliation Workbench.  This step is precautionary. By selecting Clear All, you are able to choose which purchase orders you want to process through the PO Reconciliation Workbench. Review the list of available purchase orders.  Locate and select (by selecting the checkbox to the left of the Purchase Order field) the purchase order(s) that you want to close from the PO Reconciliation Workbench page.

  28. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 5. If you did not limit your search to an individual purchase order or to a small number of purchase orders, you may have several pages of purchase orders to review. Click the arrows to move forwards and backwards through the list of purchase orders that display in the PO Reconciliation Workbench.

  29. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 6. This Processing Results page shows the results of the process.  In this example the Purchase Order is not qualified for closure.  To view more details about the reasons that this PO is not qualified, click on the Log link next to the Purchase Order number.  If this purchase order was qualified for closure you would click on the Proceed (Yes) button and there would be one final chance to verify that you want to close this purchase order.

  30. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 6. If you have multiple purchase orders, review the list of qualified purchase orders to determine that each purchase order in the list should be closed. In the event that you have a qualified purchase order that you do not want to close, click the minus button associated with that PO.  Once you have reviewed each purchase order, continue with this procedure.

  31. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 7. Click “Yes” button.  Core-CT automatically processes all qualified purchase orders that remain in the Qualified group box and any selected purchase orders from the Not Qualified group box. You are prompted with a confirmation message asking you whether or not you would like to close the qualified purchase orders.  Click “Yes” button to confirm that you would like to close the qualified purchase orders. Core-CT may take a few moments to process this request. 

  32. Review of PO Reconcile/Close Steps 8. If you chose the Log link, the Purchase Order Logs page would display. This shows us that this purchase order required receiving and the receipt has not been created to date. Resolution is to create a receiver and complete the payables process.
