What Is a Purchase Order? Our Guide for AP Professionals
To access new reporting, navigate to the Admin menu and then the Analysis link. Currently, two versions are running in Zahara. You need to be in the newer “V3” part of Zahara to access new reporting. After logging in, head to Purchase Orders from the Documents menu, and then you are in “V3”. If you have the correct permissions, you will see the Admin menu. From here, click Analysis.
You should see this:
Under the word “Dashboard”, you will see a Business Unit selector. Choose the Business Unit(s) you wish to report on. This is shown in the red box below. You can change this and the date range and then click “Update Report”. This will choose the data we are using for the dashboard below and the reports that can be run.
There is a Business Unit filter shown in the blue box below, directly above the dashboard, that can also be selected. This is a filter, whereas the selector above is used to engage the data. There is a subtle difference.
The dashboard numbers are there to save you time trying to calculate these values using reports. If you adjust the date range, then these numbers should be meaningful for you. All numbers shown exclude tax but are converted to the base currency of your first business unit.
Committed Spend
This is the value of Orders raised within the date range, that have been approved. Pending approval or Draft is excluded from this number.
Net GRN Total
This is the Value of orders that are yet to be Receipted. If this value is zero, then everything you have ordered is fully received.
