Can anybody tell me how to make text or descriptions in PO?

I want to know how it works inside the PO for instructions to the supplier.

Thanks.

Can you explain further on what you want to achieve? That would definitely help. Thanks

Leave blank (or clear) Type field in PO line, and enter the text in Description field.

If you do it regularly, you can use the Extended texts feature - in ItemCard / Item / Extended texts you can define such extended texts, different for Sales, Purchase or Service docs, even in different languages. Those can be then inserted in docs easily, no need to retype again and again.

updated: Removed Verified, as it turned out system in question is AX, not NAV. Thread moved to AX.

I already made a PO but the thing is that I would like to have a note to the supplier about the item with instructions to where and when is the delivery?

regarding where and when - this info IMHO is included in the header part of printed doc, that for ShipTo-Address and Requested/Promised/Expected Receipt Dates exists… The abovementioned dates aren’t printed on standart PO, but you can easily add them.

Extended texts generally are used to add more info about Item, not only the “name” of it - e.g. Serial/Lot nos, if applicable, ExpiryDates, other significant data for special types of merchandise when legislation requires special handling or references to supplemental docs.

Nevertheless, leaving Type=blank allows to enter freeform text in between the Item lines. You are limited to Description field length (50 chars), but NOT limited in line count, add as many lines you need to fit in whatever you need.

This is a complete picture that you gave me.

Thank you very much.[:D]

Hello Arthur, in AX 2009 the delivery address is at the PO header, the delivery date can be maintained at the line level, therefore you can have different delivery dates for every item in the PO.

Thank you for your replying Hector, I already solved the problem.
