To create linked requisitions for non-stock and special products though the 'Purchase Orders' option of  Sales Order Processing .  1. From the  ProStix Main Menu  select ' Sales Order Processing ' then ' Order Processing ' then ' New Order '. 2. Complete the order header information and add (CPF ordered) products to the order. 3. Select <F4> to exit from the order details screen and select the menu option 'Purchase Orders'. You are presented with a list of all the products on the sales order; CPF ordered products are marked with a ' C ' in the 'CPF' column on the right hand side of the screen. 4. If you want to raise a requisition for a CPF Product, then select it by using the <Space-Bar> on your keyboard and then select the <F1> function key. After <F1> has been selected the following message appears:  'Do You Want To Raise A P/O For The CPF Ordered Products Instead of a requisition? 5. If ' ye s ' is selected, a Purchase Order is created with the CPF Product, if 'no' is selected, a branch Stock Requisition is created for this product. 6. If the 'POCPFStop' flag set to  'yes',  and the Branch is not the CPF nominated branch, then the following message appears: 'Cannot Select CPF AND non-CPF Products'  7. Once the <enter> key has been selected, you may then select to add the CPF product to a requisition via the <Space-Bar> to select the product and then by selecting <F1> to add it to a requisition.  8. Once a Requisition or a Purchase Order has been created for each line, select the line by pressing the <Space-Bar> (a > sign appears next to the line) and then press/click <F1>, alternatively you may select the <F8> (Req Enq) function key if selecting a product that exists on a Requisition. If the line is to be ordered through Stock Requisitioning, you are taken into SR Maintenance. If the line is on a Purchase Order, the user is taken into Purchase Order Maintenance. 9. The ' INVPoAvail ' flag causes the program to check if the available stock minus the quantity required is greater than zero, and if it is, a warning shows the quantity which will satisfy the quantity on order. The program also asks if you want to continue creating the linked purchase order or requisition. 10. Select <F4> to return to the Sales Order processing screen. If you select both products where one is one a Purchase Order and one is on a Requisition and then presses <F1>, the following error message is displayed: 'Cannot Select across Different Orders or Types'  The error stems from the fact that the system has created a CPF requisition and a purchase order for the non-CPF product and is attempting to view both the requisition and the purchase order simultaneously.
