Merge Purchase Order
The Merge Purchase Order module allows you to merge the purchase orders in Quotation State. It helps to reduce the RFQ for same vendors and thus orders can be easily managed. You will also get further customization when you select orders and go for the âMerge Orderâ stage. Here are some of the customization Aktiv has provided with the Merging of Purchase Orders.
- After the selection of purchase order when user goes to the âMerge Ordersâ the first option will be displayed as- To create new order and cancel all selected purchase orders.
- Further the second option will work for the vendors who want to see a new order by merging similar purchase order and deleting rest of the selected orders.
- For the third option you can see a purchase orders field where you can select existing order and add other orders by cancelling rest of the selected orders.
- The fourth customization is similar to third with a small difference where after you select order and add other orders then rest of the selected orders will be deleted.
Prerequisites before Installation

Configurations
For merging purchase orders, you will have to select multiple orders displayed in the quotation stage and go to the âActionâ tab to avail the Merge Purchase Order feature.

When you click on the âMerge Ordersâ you will be asked to choose from four different options before merging the orders.
As shown in the below image you can:
- Create order by merging orders and cancel the selected orders.
- Create new order by merging orders and deleting the selected orders.

- Select existing order and add other orders to the existing order and delete others.
Letâs consider adding two purchase order for merging with fourth option- âSelect a purchase order and other purchase order to the existing order and delete other ordersâ.
You can see a 'Purchase Orders' field, in this you can select an existing order in which you can add another selected order. After clicking on Merge Orders button, you can see other orders merge with selected existing order. And rest of all selected orders will be deleted.
