Name of Business

Type in the name of your business as you would like it to appear on the top of purchase orders.  You have 45 characters of space available.  Note that if you plan to use logos on your purchase order, keep the length under 30 characters. You can click on "Check Length" to find out how many characters your name is.  If the length goes over 30 characters, the logo will overlap it.  If you don't plan to use logos, the name can be as long as desired.

Note that your Registration Code is keyed to the name of your business.  If you decide to change your business name, drop us an email and well be very happy to provide you with a new code.

 

Address

Type in your business street address, box number or both.  For instance, you might type in something like to the following: P.O.

First Line After City/State (Line 1)

This line appears just under the city/state line on the printed purchase order.  You can enter whatever information you desire.  Most people use this space for their business phone and fax number.  For example, you might type in something like the following: Phone:  208-233-0410 / Fax: 208-234-5679.  You have 70 characters available.

Second Line after City/State (Line 2):

This is the second line that appears after the city/state line.  You can enter whatever information you desire.  Most people type in their email or website address, but other numbers can be entered such as a Federal ID number.  Here's an example: Email: wattron@isu.edu / Website: www.greatbooks.com.  You have 70 characters of space available.

 

Configuring the Program for More Than One Business Name & Address - Level III

Level III users can purchase an add-on which allows you to have more than one business name and address on the purchase order.  This might useful if you have different company divisions, different imprints, or different product lines.

The cost is dependent upon the number of additional business names that are required.  Check with the developer for pricing.

If you purchase the add-on, you'll be provided with a registration code.  After entering the registration code, you find a new button the "Business Address" page:

POExtra1

When you click on this button, the following dialog box appears:

POExtra2

 

The "Additional Business Names" dialog box allows you to add more company names and addresses.  The default company name (the one that you entered above) should be the name and address that you plan to use the most.  All other names and addresses can be entered in the "Additional Business Names" dialog box.

AnyPO uses the PO Code on the Main Purchase Order Screen to determine which business name and address to use.  The location of the Purchase Order code is shown below:

POPOCode

 

When filling out the "Additional Business Names" dialog box, make sure you have a checkmark beside: "Turn this feature on."  The PO code that you have chosen is entered in the field circled below:

POExtra3

 

Note that if there is no PO Code on the Main Purchase Order Screen, then AnyPO will use the default business name and address on the printed purchase order.  If there's a code, however, it will use the business name with the matching code from the "Additional Business Names" dialog box.

Fill in the rest of fields on the dialog box with the business address, phone numbers, email, etc.  You can even have different logos on the printed purchase order depending upon the business name.

More business names can be added by clicking on the "Add New" button.  If you have several business names, you can move back and forth through them by pressing PageUp and PageDown on your keyboard.

If, sometime, in the future, you need to delete a business name, that's done by selecting EDIT >> DELETE THIS NAME AND ADDRESS.
