To raise is to commit.
Purchase orders put quantities, delivery dates and totals in front of both parties. Acknowledgment updates the status you share, so the commitment is visible beyond the document you sent.
Once acknowledged, a promise is visible.
The response includes the details you need to act on. Review the document, capture the confirmation, then check what is actually declared for shipment.

Declared for shipment · not a receipt
The warehouse can see what to expect. Received quantities are recorded when the delivery arrives.
Submitted by Elena Costa · 14 Sep 2026, 08:30Before commitment, approval remains yours.
Review the proposed purchase order before authorizing creation. yukti cuts the PO within your rules; it appears as pending in beacon for the supplier to acknowledge.
- Proposal trigger
- UNCONFIRMED: the event that generates a proposal.
- No response
- UNCONFIRMED: unattended-proposal behavior and expiry.
Fulfillment starts with agreed quantities.
Forward demand comes from core. Submitted ASNs declare what the warehouse should expect, within the open PO balance. Keep the demand view separate from the confirmed shipment when checking what is coming.
Shared responsibility belongs in the portal.
The supplier-facing PO workflow is part of beacon. Procurement data supplies the purchase orders; the portal supports acknowledgment, rejection, history and exports. It does not own the underlying procurement record.
Questions, answered.
The distinction between editing, responding and shipping matters.
Can the supplier amend the PO?
No. Amendments are made in merchmix; the updated document appears in beacon.
Does an approved range become a PO without retyping?
UNCONFIRMED: a direct approved-range-to-PO handoff is not established in the available capability details.
Can I take the document outside the portal?
Yes. Download PDF or CSV exports for filtered or selected purchase-order data.
Is supplier acknowledgment the same as shipment?
No. An ASN separately declares eligible lines, quantities, expected arrival, carrier and tracking details.
Real commitments deserve a practical test.
Use your own purchase orders in a free 6-week POC, with no contract. Check the acknowledgment, amendment and partial-shipment steps against the work you currently chase by email.
