Generate Orders

Learn how to generate purchase orders from your production plan using Moselle's AI recommendations.

Overview

Once you have finalized your order quantities in the Production Plan, you can automatically create purchase orders.

How to Generate Purchase Orders

1. Navigate to your Production Plan.

2. Ensure you are satisfied with the Actual Order quantities in the schedule.

3. Click Generate Purchase Orders.

4. Select your preferred optimization option (see below).

AI Order Criteria

Choose how the AI prioritizes supplier selection:

Cost Selects the lowest-priced supplier for each SKU across all available vendors.

Lead Time Selects the geographically closest supplier with the best price, minimizing shipping time.

Important Considerations

Current Behavior: Purchase orders are currently generated for the full coverage period (e.g., January to June combined).

If you need monthly purchase orders:

• Export your schedule using the Export option.

• Create the POs manually in your procurement system based on the monthly breakdown.

• Monthly PO generation is coming in a future update.

Activate Purchase Orders

Generated orders start in draft status.

1. Click Activate PO to change the order status to active.

2. Once activated, manage your orders through the Orders feature, where you can view details and make adjustments as needed.
