34.2. Purchase Order Status
Once a purchase order is created, you can associate a status with the purchase order if useful.
Immediately after creation, a purchase order is by default "pending". You can continue to make changes as needed.
By clicking "submitted" you will effectively put the purchase order on hold (e.g. waiting for the vendor to approve it).
Once the order has been submitted and processed, you can update the status to either reflect that the purchase order was "accepted" by the vendor (and is awaiting fulfillment) or "rejected" (meaning additional changes need to be made).
At any time while the invoice is pending, submitted or accepted, you can mark it as "fulfilled". When the purchase order is marked as fulfilled, you will have a chance to review the shipment to ensure it includes the expected items. The next page provides more detail on fulfilling a purchase order.
If a purchase order is rejected, you can make further edits. Once you revise the purchase order further, it will prevent to a pending status for resubmission.
Finally, at any time before fulfillment, purchase orders can be "canceled", meaning that the item and order were canceled.
