EPO Wizard - Details and Items

The final step for an EPO is to complete the Details and Items page. All required fields are marked with an asterisk (*).

When you create the EPO, you can choose to Add Back Charge To EPO or Add EPO To Multiple Jobs. Currently an EPO with a Back Charge cannot be added to multiple jobs.

 

To complete the Task Detail section:

  1. In the Task Name field, type the name of the task you want to add.

  2. In the Description field, type a brief description of the task.

  3. In the Request Date field, type the date the materials are needed from the supplier/trade.

  1. Use the Supplier Instructions field for notes to the supplier/trade.

  1. Choose an EPO Reason code.

  2. In the EPO Notes field, type any relevant notes for the back office.

  3. If needed, click the Schedule Change Reason field and make the appropriate selection.

  4. If needed, click the Schedule Change Supplier field and make the appropriate selection.

  5. In the Add Item Quantities section, change the value in the Quantity field as needed. The Unit Price may be updated if your company has the correct module turned on and the proper role assigned.

  6. In the Enter Additional Items Freeform section, enter the SKU, Description, Quantity, and Unit Price for each item in the EPO.

  7. If the task has options, you can choose an Option for each line item from the drop-down list next to the Description column.

  8. If the EPO is ready to be submitted for approval, click the EPO Ready check box in the bottom left of the page.

  9. Click the Create EPO button. The new EPO task is added and the Job Task page appears.

 

If your company is integrated to BuildPro, EPOs will be exported to the accounting system once created and marked "Ready". The EPO will be locked down in BuildPro until the updated details are received from the accounting system and reconciled in BuildPro. The reconcile process could take as little as a few minutes or a few days depending on the type of integration.
