I archive my purchase order... if I post, it dissapears!!!

demi222

I go to purchases and payables...

I make an order and then I archive it.

I then go back later, and post the order.

Then I go to documents, and what I had previously achived is gone.

What is wrong? Can anyone help?

Open Form 5167 (Purchase Order Archive) from the Object Designer. You'll find your archived document in that form.

I didn't find the corresponding link in the main menu though ...

When you fully post a purchase order, Navision will remove the order from the database, but not the archived copies. When they wrote the archive function, Navision forgot to think about the fact that people would also like to access the archive AFTER posting the order (go figure, who would ever want something weird like that :roll: ).

The forms exist (do a Ctrl+F2 from the archived PO), all you need to do is add access to the form to the P&P menu. Just copy the Orders button, rename it to 'Archived Orders' and change it to call the archive PO form.
