PDF file with order print is always attached to e-mail. File preview can be shown or downloaded using buttons in modal. After submitting, notification about result is shown on bottom of the screen.
Import order from Excel
A file with order lines can by imported by a button in the user interface from the 'Purchase orders' grid. After the job is started, a notification is sent to the user. Invalid lines are skipped. Once the file has been imported, it is shown how many orders that have been created, how many lines that have been imported for each store and how many lines that have been skipped.
Only one item identifier of the 3 is required: SKU, GTIN or Item number, and only one supplier identifier of 2: supplier no. or supplier GLN. Supplier GLN is more important so if the user imports a file in which the 'supplier GLN' comes from one supplier and the 'supplier no' from another, the record will be created based on the 'supplier GLN'. Order line note column is optional. It is also possible to provide an empty/null field for order line note. Such a line will not be skipped during import. If there are empty values or nulls for quantity, wholesale price, supplier discount or delivery date then such lines are skipped. If supplier identifier is not specified, item should be delivered by the main supplier. If there are several lines in the file for different suppliers, corresponding orders will be created for each supplier.
Additional changes:
Import of items from Item Management is extended by the IsMainSupplier flag and it is saved on SupplierItem level in the Procurement database.
Import goods receipt from 3rd party
3rd party systems, usually central warehouse systems, can do goods receipt on behalf of a store, and in such cases we can receive goods through 3rd party JSON import, with similar logic to goods receipts from InStore App. Contract and business rules are documented in Swagger. Required values are StartedDateUtc, SourceSystem, Quantity, ItemIdentifier, ShippingDateUtc. Optional fields are EndedDateUtc (equals StartedDateUtc if not provided), receiveNote, receivedBy (equals SourceSystem if not provided), costPrice (if not provided, when new order line has to be created, price is being fetched from database or set to 0 if not found), orderLineNote (set as note on order despatch line), itemName, storeName, supplierName (these tree used only when entity is not found and placeholder is created, but optional in this case too, identifier is used as name if name not sent).
Other requirements depend on GoodsReceiptType:
- PurchaseOrder - used to receive orders for which there is no Order Despatch Advice
- temporary requirement - all goods receipt lines in this type of import must have same order identifier (no support for receiving lines from multiple orders in one goods receipt)
- order identifier and order line number are required
- store identifier is not used
- supplier identifier is needed only when using supplierOrderNo as orderIdentifier
- imported only when order was found and has status Confirmed or Done - no support yet for automatic approval of draft and submitted orders, and no support for creating new orders with this import
- packageIdentifier and packageLineNo should not be sent
- order line can be received multiple times, value is added to delivered quantity
- Package - used to receive orders for which there are Order Despatch Advice imported
- orderIdentifier, orderLineNo, packageIdentifier, packageLineNo are required
- possible to receive package with lines from multiple orders, or multiple packages within one goods receipt
- each package line (order despatch advice line) can be received only once (as in user interface)
- store identifier is not used
- supplier identifier is needed only when using supplierOrderNo as orderIdentifier
- ManualDelivery - used to receive items for which purchase order was not created.
- new order is created for each supplier, with status 'Done'
- orderIdentifier, orderLineNo, packageIdentifier, packageLineNo cannot be sent
- store and supplier identifier are required

Import | Import POSLogs from multiple stores and workstations (RTC-37024) POSLog import includes RetailStoreId and WorkstationId, so duplicate validation does not happen when we receive POSLog with same SequenceNumber from multiple stores and workstations. In case when new purchase order has to be created, its External Order No. is in format 'POSLOG-RetailStoreId-WorkstationId-SequenceNumber-SupplierNo'. |
Order lines | User interface improvements (RTC-36402) Supplier discount is displayed in order line in grid and in PDF properly when it has some decimals. Red validation message is displayed when creating order line but discount input is empty. Loading circle is displayed when adding new order line (between choosing item in item search modal and new line appearing in the grid). |
Order lines and delivery lines | Import total supplier discount from Item Service (RTC-35004) Total supplier discount is a sum of negative discounts based on wholesale price defined in Item Management. This value is imported to Procurement and displayed during adding new order or delivery line. If in Item Management the discount based on the wholesale price will have only positive values or negative values will sum to something less than -100% (e.g. -102%) then we prefill 0 in Procurement. If an item has no price defined, nothing is prefilled. When adding order or delivery line, 'Wholesale price' is prefilled with 'Net cost' value from price calculation, which already contains supplier discount. This will be changed and 'Wholesale price' will be properly filled with 'Wholesale price in supplier currency' in RTC-34652. |
Procurement API | API for purchase orders with given item and given store (RTC-36258) Endpoint (/api/gateway/PurchaseOrders/[storeNo]/orderedItem) in Procurement Service returns orders for the given item and store with the following statuses: Submitted, Confirmed, Edited and Done. Draft and Cancelled purchase orders are not returned. |
Purchase order | Fix: Order created from InStore App (RTC-36265) Orders created from InStore App are created for correct suppliers in Procurement as supplier received in POSLog is properly identified by supplier number. Handling of InStore App goods receipt for item that was not in order is adjusted to new version of POSLog. Delivery date is set properly when creating orders from Excel file. When importing an order via an Excel file, a separate order is created for each supplier even if the supplier's GLN is not defined in the database (it is null). If the user enters a line for which no supplier-item relationship exists, the main supplier will be selected during order creation. Stock information in order line details (RTC-35861) New column appears in manual delivery details, in purchase order lines, and in items in delivery called "Available quantity" displaying current stock of the selected item in selected store. Field is also visible in order line details and in manual delivery line details. |
Receive goods | Backorders (RTC-35021) Backorder flag on item level is imported from Item Service to the Procurement Service. If there is an item in a purchase order that does not allow back orders, after first goods receipt, order line delivery status is set to Delivered, even if not all ordered items have been delivered (Remaining is set to 0 and deviation is set). |
System | Fix: Date filter (RTC-35746) It is possible to filter by date. Store import is extended by import of store address. StockMerger job is replaced by StockImport job, which imports stock changes published by Inventory Service, without use of staging in database. This improves performance of import, especially when a lot of data is exported. Validation and placeholders logic is removed. Still, stock info older than the one we already have, is not imported. Database is extended with all other stock fields, including 'Available quantity'. Common order points for item are imported as a part of ItemChanges import. Store order points are imported as a part of new ItemStoreOverride import. |

Import order from Excel (part 2)
In 'Import order' modal user can select level of import: Store, Team, Profile or All stores. In case of first three choices - page is shown with a list of active stores/teams/profiles. The list is filtered by access permission of user (and placeholders are excluded). User has to choose at least one from the list. It is possible to filter the list using search input. Then import has to be confirmed using 'Import' button in toolbar. A message appears on the bottom of the page as a confirmation of saving the data to staging table (from where import will be processed by a job in part 3 of this feature). When trying to leave the page during store selection process, modal with a warning appears.
Order proposal
Order proposals are created every night. Those orders can be recognized by checkbox in 'Order proposal' column in Purchase orders grid. Order proposal condition is based on sum of stock in store, existing draft proposals and remaining quantity in submitted, edited and confirmed purchase orders. If condition is below 1 (min. order point) new order proposal is created with quantity, after which sum of above values is 10 (max. order point). Order proposals are created for main supplier of item. Proposals are not created if item has no main supplier or it never was in stock in specific store. If draft proposal exists, and quantities in other orders or stock status has changed since previous job execution, quantities in proposal are updated to match max order point. If proposal is not needed anymore, it is deleted by job, and if this was the only line in order, order is deleted as well.
Job executions contain log with count of created, updated and deleted proposal lines as well as sum of those.
Totals for purchase order is now correctly calculated after import of purchase order or order despatch advice.

Deliveries | Fix: Receive many lines (RTC-35026) When there are more than 100 lines to receive, all of them are affected after using 'Select all' and 'Confirm items' buttons (before it affected only first 100 lines). 'Select all' selects only the lines which match current filter in the grid. |
Import | Delivery status after import of order despatch advice (RTC-34093) If the user imports order despatch advice by 3rd party to an order on which the receive goods have not yet been executed, the imported delivery has the status 'Not received'. After importing order despatch advice into 'Done' order, the delivery status is set to 'Partially received'. It's not possible to receive goods if external order despatch advice exist for the order. 'Receive goods' button is hidden.
Business rules and file contract for import of goods receipts are available in Swagger. There is also example of files with required data and examples for each goods receipt type.
Remaining quantity of order despatch advice line is supported in import from 3rd party. This is an optional field. By default it is null - after receiving such order despatch advice line, remaining of order line is reduced by value that was expected to be delivered in this order despatch advice line (deviation is set if we received other number than expected). |
Items in purchase orders | Fix: Filtering by delivery status (RTC-34747) Active deliveries (all except Done and Cancelled) are displayed in the grid by default. Filtering by delivery status works properly. Any status can be selected. |
Purchase order | Order confirmation print (RTC-35332) PDF file with order confirmation is redesigned. The file can be downloaded using 'Print order' button which is available when order has status 'Submitted'. The file contains purchase order number, order submit date, delivery date, store name, supplier number, name and address, order note and list of order lines - SKU, Supplier item number, Description (item text), Quantity, Unit price, Discount, Amount and Total amount of the order. The order lines heading is continued on the next page when the lines do not fit one page, and the page number is displayed in the page corner.
Change of buttons texts (RTC-34646) Procurement management is displayed in side menu with label 'Procurement' and links are placed in 'Purchasing' section. 'Items in purchase orders' is placed right below 'Purchase orders' in menu. "New order" button is changed to "New purchase order". "Edit date" button is changed to "Edit delivery date". Overview section in overview tab is renamed to "Details". Fixed issue which led to no possibility to submit goods receipt from purchase order (delivery of order without import of external order despatch advice). |
System | Import of stock status from Inventory module (RTC-34425) There is a 'StockMerger' job in ProcurementServiceintegration package. By default, in runs every 2 minutes. The following information about an item from a given shop is stored in the Procurement database: id of the item, id of the shop, stock quantity and stock update date. This information is taken from the 'Inventory' module. A maximum of 3 decimal numbers are stored in the database for stock quantity. If the number exported from Inventory has 4 decimal places, the last digit is ignored. If more - there is a validation. If any imported store or item does not exist, placeholder is created. If any of incoming store identifiers does not contain storeNo and placeholder must be created, exception is thrown. If incoming stock date is before stock entry date, there is no update in the Procurement db. At least one identifier is required: StoreNo or GLN for store and Sku or GTIN for item. |

Purchase order | Create purchase order from InStore App (RTC-30507) 'Item ordering' from InStore App is processed by Procurement and results in creating purchase order. It creates a draft purchase order with external number 'POSLOG-sequenceNo-supplierGLN'. For each ordered item such order is created, and when there already exists draft order created from InStore, with matching store and supplier - item is imported as new line in such order (one item ordering in InStore can contain items from multiple suppliers and will result in multiple orders in Procurement). Receipt note is saved as order line note. Quantity and net price is imported. Supplier discount is set to 0%. Order line number is generated. |
Purchase order and delivery | Expand row to show panel with order line details (RTC-32514) A panel with the following information has been added to each line, under both the 'Purchase orders' tab and the 'Deliveries' tab: ORDER (Order line note, Quantity), STOCK LEVEL (Ordered), PRICE (Wholesale price, Supplier discount) and DELIVERY DATES (Delivery date) only in 'Purchase orders' tab. When a new line is added to the purchase order, the panel is open and the focus is on the quantity field. In the 'Deliveries' tab, the panel does not open when a new line is added. The plus and minus buttons allow to expand or collapse the panel respectively. When the page is refreshed, all panels for all lines are collapsed. The panel can be edited when the order line has statuses: 'Draft', 'Submitted' or 'Edited'. For all other statuses a read-only panel is displayed. Delivery line can be edited when the delivery has draft status. There is no panel for other statuses of delivery. Setting a past date for purchase order line is possible. Preset price (RTC-32590) The price is automatically filled out when a new item is added to a purchase order or to manual delivery. Active wholesale price for item for given store is returned. The user can change it. The most current price is always entered based on the 'Valid from' column in the 'Store price' tab in the item view in Item Management. An exception is when store, profile and/or price zone prices are given. In this case, even if the profile/price zone price is more recent, the store price will be entered, as it has greater priority. When the price information is being searched, input is in 'loading' state, 'Wholesale price' field is blocked and it's not possible to enter any value there. Focus is on 'quantity' when price is successfully found and 0% is automatically entered in the discount field. If the item does not have a price or a price is equal to zero, focus is on the price field. Store number (RTC-32755) Column named 'Store no.' is visible in the Purchase orders and Deliveries views. This column is hidden when user has permission to only one store. There is an information about store number in overview tab, next to the store name. Column 'Store' is renamed to 'Store name'. |

After clicking the button, he is taken to a view where he can add items and then click 'Submit'. When leaving goods receipt from manual delivery view without submit, status of delivery stays 'Draft'. Manual delivery can be edited until the user presses submit. Submit modal is added to goods receipt from manual delivery. After submitting delivery, user is redirected to previous view ('Package' tab or 'Order' tab). Purchase order status is set to 'Done', order delivery status is set to 'Done' and package status is set to 'Done'. Submit of manual delivery triggers export of purchase order and goods receipt.
