Occasionally a user may need to adjust the quantity or cost of a purchase order after it has been received.

When a purchase order is edited, Sprout automatically updates all related records, including:

  • inventory quantities
  • lot costs
  • financial records

Only users with the appropriate permissions can edit a received purchase order.


Company Site Restrictions on Editing Purchase Orders

Different organizations may have different policies regarding how long purchase orders can be edited after receiving.

To configure this restriction:

  1. Navigate to System → Company Sites.
  2. Select the Company Site.
  3. Locate the Edit PO After Received Days setting.



  1. Enter the number of days after receiving during which the purchase order can still be edited.
  2. Click Save.

After this period has passed, the purchase order will be locked and cannot be modified.
