Anyone know how we might be able to add the retail or sell price to the purchase order? When we receive the goods, it would be nice to be able to populate a field like this so the product can be tagged upon receipt without looking up the item in RMS.
Adding the retail price to the purchase order

Jack,
You need to programatically add a column into the PO template.
Good luck, Matt
Jack,
The file is:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Retail Management System\Store Operations\ReceiptTemplates\PO.xml
There are also other PO files, but I don't know if you need to alter those yet either. The value you will add is PurchaseOrder.Entry.ItemPrice
Take a look and fiddle around with it in the "PO Entries" section. I would suggest making a copy of the original as a backup if there are any errors. It's in XML.
Good luck, Matt
Jack,
You can replace an entry in one column with the purchase order price value if you don't need to use a particular column. Otherwise, you'll have to know a little XML to get it done. That's why I suggest making a copy of the original first, so you can afford to mess up.

tahts the best way . . .
we d> Jack,
Jack,
This example will allow you to replace the lookup code with the price instead.
First, right click the file, copy , then paste a copy of the file in the same directory. Then right-click PO.xml again, go to properties, and uncheck Read Only.
In PO.XML replace PurchaseOrder.Entry.LookUpCode with PurchaseOrder.Entry.ItemPrice Also, replace "Lookup Code" with "Item Price" or something similar that you'd like.
Save the file and then try printing a PO again. If you're still having problems, or don't feel confident enough to attempt it, I would suggest contacting a partner for help.
Good luck, Matt
