Are you able to track change orders to a purchase order with out the project module? Everything I’ve read regarding change order management all seems to require the project module.

Hi @shores6 

The change order functionality is part of ‘Projects’ module.  Hence, its not possible to use the Change order functionality to track changes to a Purchase order without Project module. 

Hope this clarifies,

How does one issue a Purchase Order Change order? Not a Project Change, but a change to an Open Purchase order that indicates it is a change to the previous version of the Purchase order.

Hi @rlugar39 

At present, one can track changes made to the document by using ‘Audit history’. However, there is no option to available to track changes using a version number.

Here is the documentation link to Audit history functionality:

Here is an existing feature request for this functionality :

Hope this clarifies,

@shores6 , 

Yes, you can track PO changes in Acumatica without using the Project module, but you won’t have the full Change Order Management functionality available through Projects.

For a standard PO, you can use PO revisions/history, audit/history tracking, and approval workflows to monitor changes to quantities, prices, dates, and other PO fields. If you need formal change-order numbers, versioning, approvals, and a clear audit trail, you would typically need either the Project module or a customization.

Logistify.ai can also help automate a lightweight PO change-order workflow without requiring the full Project module—capturing changes, maintaining revision history, and routing significant changes for approval.
