Purchase Orders in 3.70B

Hi!

I'm wondering what is difference between 2 order menus in NAV.

1st is Purch & Payables menu -> ORDER MENU->ORDERS->ORDER RECEIVE
2nd is ORDERS on main Purch & Payables menu.

I can see few orders in 2nd menu and I cant remove them(f4) and cant add new (f3) - the values from those orders are visible on Posted Receipts.
We usually create orders through 1st order menu and I dont know how they've got to 2nd?

Orders receive is for people who might be in a receiving dock somewhere, maybe in a warehouse. They only receive items and have no control over what is ordered.

The standard form is for adding orders. They can technically control everything, but generally won't be the ones receiving the items.

Strange is that on 2nd menu I'm not able to add or delete any orders. I can do it on 1st menu (ORDERS->ORDER RECEIVE)
Maybe there is some customization done by NAV partner - have to check there.
