Run purchase-order statistics by type
Compare count and cost grouped by PO type. The guide then takes you through the correct route, the checks to complete before making changes, the workflow in order, and the evidence to review afterwards.
Where to goAdmin Area → Purchase → Reports → Statistics by Type
Before you start
- Use an account with purchase_reports: View and confirm the intended record or setting before making a change.
- Follow the exact route above. If the screen or action is absent, check module activation, ownership and permissions rather than using another person’s account.
- Use controlled test data for configuration, integration, email, AI, payment, portal or automation changes before production-wide use.
What you’ll accomplish
Compare count and cost grouped by PO type. The instructions reflect the supplied module’s registered menus, controller actions, views, settings and code-backed validation flow.
Follow these steps
- Go to Admin Area → Purchase → Reports → Statistics by Type.
- Select the relevant record, filter, report, model or configuration described below.
- Use the displayed action or read the current values without altering unrelated data.
- Compare the output with the code-backed rules and expected result in this guide.
- Record or correct any mismatch before relying on the output in production.
Fields and options to review
FiltersReport type, period/month/year/date range, currency, status and vendor/project filters where displayed.
OutputTable/chart totals derived from purchase records visible to the authorised user.
Rules the system enforces
- Reports require purchase_reports view capability.
- Figures depend on stored currency/rate, status and date values; reconcile against source records.
How to confirm it worked
- The supported run purchase-order statistics by type flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
- The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
- Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.
Security, privacy and operational checks
- Apply least privilege to purchasing, vendor, invoice, payment, return, contract and report permissions.
- Verify vendor identity, bank/payment details, tax, currency, totals and approvals before creating financial commitments.
- Treat public links, signatures, portal files, attachments and exported reports as controlled business records.
- Test settings and automated jobs with controlled records before production-wide use.
