    PQM Page

    Vendor quote processing starts with the PQM page. This topic describes the fields and functions on this page that are specific to COSMO Discrete Manufacturing. For more information about the other fields on this page, see PQM Page in the COSMO Purchase Quote Manager Help.

    A PQM document can be created from one or more selected Document BOM, Construction Order, or Construction Inquiry lines by choosing the Create PQM action on the source page (Document BOM line: Create PQM action on the Actions menu, Construction Order or Construction Inquiry line: Functions > Create PQM on the Lines FastTab.).

    Existing PQMs can be opened from source lines through the Purchase Status or Purchase Exists field when the line is in Purchase Status = PQM created. You can also open existing PQMs from Tell Me by choosing Purchase Quote Managers and selecting the relevant record.

    Note

    If the Create PQM action is used for selected Document BOM or Construction lines that already have active linked PQM lines, a confirmation asks whether new lines should be created. If No is selected, creation of new PQM lines is skipped and the existing PQM context for the source line is opened. If Yes is selected, source-line prerequisite checks are executed; if prerequisites are not met (for example, Purchase Status is not blank), processing stops with a validation error.

    General FastTab

    The Description field is initialized from the related source header (Document BOM or Construction header, including inquiry scenarios). It can be edited to provide more details about the PQM, such as the reason for requesting the quote and specific instructions for vendors.

    Lines FastTab

    The fields on the Lines FastTab that are specific to COSMO Discrete Manufacturing are described in the following table.

    Field Description
    Source Unit Cost Initialized by PQM line cost calculation from transferred source values. For Document BOM and Construction sources, this is typically based on the source Unit Cost (CC).
    Source Status Indicates the source-link state of the PQM line:
    - From Document: created from the source line.
    - Updated: source data was updated from placing results.
    - Release: source link is released from active PQM processing.
    Order Date Indicates the system date the PQM line was created from the Document BOM or Construction line.
    Due Date Defaults from the Due Date, Starting Date, or Shipment Date of the source Document BOM or Construction line. If none of these dates are specified, defaults to the system date.
    Planned Lead Time Calculation When the Order Date is set, changing the Planned Lead Time Calculation recalculates the Due Date. Changing the Order Date also recalculates the Due Date from this formula.
