Reorder function

Save time on repetitive purchasing with Zudello's dedicated Reorder function. Instead of manually creating new purchase orders from scratch or using complex workarounds, you can instantly recreate frequently ordered purchase orders with just one click.

Best practices

To ensure accurate reordering:

  • Use reorder only for purchase orders with consistent line items and suppliers
  • Review the recreated purchase order before submission to verify quantities and pricing
  • Update delivery dates and any time-sensitive information
  • Confirm supplier details remain current before placing the reordered purchase order

Required permissions

To use the reorder function, you need the following permission:

  • Purchasing Order Reorder

Contact your organisation administrator if you are unsure about your permissions.

Understanding the reorder function

The reorder function creates a new purchase order based on an existing one, while:

  • Copying all delivery, coding, and supplier information
  • Resetting the new purchase order to your team's default PO status
  • Clearing document numbers, dates, and placement information
  • Maintaining all product details, quantities, and pricing from the original

This ensures you get a clean, ready-to-process purchase order without any historical information that shouldn't be carried forward.

Important note

The Reorder function bypasses requisitions entirely.
If your organisation uses requisitions to approve purchases, please check with your organisation administrator before using the Reorder function.
