The new front-end Purchase Order page gives front-end admins the ability to create and manage purchase orders. The front-end PO management page is turned off by default but you can provide a front-end admin access to this page via their user settings.

This page gives front-end admins the ability to search for existing purchase orders and create new purchase orders.

Purchase Orders created on the front end will appear on both the front end and back end Purchase Order page. Back-end admins can also opt into getting an email whenever a front-end admin creates a new PO.

Benefits to the Client

  • Create new purchase orders on the storefront.
  • See existing purchase orders on the storefront.
  • Enable front-end admins to manage purchase orders.

How It Works

To give a front-end admin access to the Purchase Orders page:

  1. In the back end, go to Portals / Select a Customer / Users / Select a User.
  2. On the Basic Information page, find the Admin Pages section.
  3. Check the box labeled “Purchase Orders”.
  4. Save.

As mentioned above, back-end admins can get alerted via email whenever a front-end admin creates a purchase order. To receive these emails:

  1. In the back end, go to System / Backend Users / Select a Backend User.
