The "Open Purchase Orders" report displays CLOSED Vendor Purchase Orders
I do not see anyone asking this question so let me give it a shot
What is NetSuite's logic for CLOSED Vendor Purchase Orders ("VPO's")?
1) We create a Vendor Purchase Order
2) For whatever reason the item(s) on the VPO are no longer needed
3) We do not want to delete the VPO because if anyone needs to go looking for it later, they will not find any information.
4) Therefore, we add a note to the SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS field explaining what happened and why. Then we click the CLOSE button on the VPO.
5) The VPO remains intact, the "On Order" fields are zero'd out the Inventory item(s). It is all good.
