Firm Orders

A firm order is a one-time order for a specific item. Most firm orders are for monographs. However, you may also use a firm order for certain types of serial items, such as an order to replace a specific issue of a journal that has already been published.

Since Horizon’s purchase order process is geared toward firm orders, there are no special procedures for firm-order items. Simply follow the regular ordering, receiving, and invoicing procedures that are outlined in this manual.

After you order, receive, and invoice (or cancel) all copies of a purchase order, Day End records the purchase order as “complete.” The completion of a purchase order is indicated by a date in the Completed field on the PO header. If you later add one or more lines, the purchase order will revert back to an uncompleted state.
