Purchase Order - Customisable purchase order tracking
Could customisable tracking fields be added to PO's. There are several steps in our business between SENT and then BILLED. the only way we can track this is using a spreadsheet as when looking at a PO in XERO we can not easily check status. Using the Notes is too slow and awkward.
As an example: We send a PO to Supplier; Items are then Collected by a courier (this could be weeks or months later); Items then Delivered to Customer (also delay here of months). By allowing us to have customised tracking fields we can then update the PO status and quickly understand what is happening with our PO's.

shared this idea
Thanks for sharing this here Paolo. We understand that a lot goes on between when the purchase order is created and fulfilled. At the moment, while there are no extra statuses, you can use tracking categories if you're not using them already. You can fill in the first tracking category as Collected by courier etc and the other tracking category would be delivered to the customer. While this is just a suggestion, we will open this idea up to the community to gain more support. Cheers
