You can create a purchase order directly from the internal planning process, even without going via the purchasing overview.

1. Click on  Purchasingin the upper toolbar of the input window to directly trigger new orders or add to existing orders.
   Note: The event date must be in the future. Orders with different suppliers must be created one after the other.
   a) If no supplier is assigned, go to Purchasing >  Consumables and create a new order. The overview opens on the date of the event,
   b) If a supplier is assigned, select Purchasing > Supplier > Create Purchase Order. The order opens pre-populated with the supplier, the event, the segment item and the quantity required.
   c) If a purchase order already exists that you want to add to, select Purchasing >  Supplier > Purchasing > Purchase order and add the purchase order.
2. If you want to purchase for all events of an event at the same time, click on event > base, before you open the orders or the purchasing Summary.
3. Update the internal planning segment if you have made changes in the customer segment, if necessary via  Update > Reset item to sales item in the horizontal toolbar above the segment items.
