David, Thank you so much for your reply! I am sorry I wasn't more clear, it is late and I was rushing to get it out tonight.
I understand that it is a sales order for me, however I still need to track it differently than other sales orders in a few ways. For one thing, the customer purchase order is almost a payment method. The sales order should consider itself paid when a customer PO# is accepted, however the invoice should remain open waiting for the real payment to follow within the terms of the customer PO. I suppose this means that customer POs aren't already implemented in ofbiz like this, and we will have to build it. Again, thank you for taking the time to assist me, Rebeccah > -----Original Message----- > From: David E.
