About the Fields

A determining factor on whether purchase orders and detail line items display on this report is made by your selection in the Warehouse field. If all warehouses are selected, all purchase orders matching the criteria are displayed. But if a single warehouse is selected, all purchase order headers from that warehouse are listed, with or without line items; line items matching the criteria are only listed when they come from the selected warehouse and are S, N, or O line types.
