Purpose
The PO.P3 procedure recalculates and sets the open order amount in the vendor file. This amount is displayed on query procedures such as the vendor inquiry ( VENDOR.Q ).

Frequency of Use
The open order amount is maintained automatically as purchase orders are entered and receipts are processed. Therefore, the only time you really need to run this procedure is when the file has been corrupted or records have been purged from the purchase order file.

Prerequisites
Entry of purchase order records ( PO.E ).
