Purchase suggestion
Purchase suggestions are created if:
• stock is replenished;
• a requisition for a non-stock item is accepted and processed into purchase orders. When the requisition is accepted, a purchase suggestion is created for every requisition line of a non-stock item;
• a requisition line under a work order or planned maintenance order is accepted.
Multiple purchase suggestions can be combined into a single purchase order by clustering them.
For example, if you are purchasing two different items (a laptop and a printer) from the same vendor, the purchase suggestions for these items are combined into one purchase order with two purchase order lines (one for the laptop and the other for the printer.)

For more information on clustering purchase suggestions, see Generating a purchase order.
You can cluster purchase suggestions based on the following criteria:
• the Property of the related product requisitions;
• the Property and delivery address of the related product requisitions;
• a Specific property and delivery address that you subsequently select in the relevant fields.
 | As soon as an order (requisition / work order / planned maintenance order) is set to Administratively completed, any corresponding purchase suggestions will be deleted. |
