How to Consolidate Transfer Orders into a Purchase Order | Orderlink Guide

How to combine transfer orders into a single purchase Order in Orderlink

Now that you have your transfer orders—whether they were imported from external systems or created in Orderlink—you might be wondering, “How do I combine these into one purchase order for my supplier?” 

As shown in the image below, you can filter your transfer orders by supplier, consolidation status, or order number. Select the orders you want to consolidate, but remember, they must be from the same supplier. That’s because you're creating one purchase order for each supplier in your consolidation warehouse.

Once you’ve selected the orders, click on the three dots in the top-right corner and choose "Create Consolidated Purchase Order." This will take you to the purchase order page.





On this page, you’ll see all the items from your transfer orders, now combined into one purchase order. The delivery date for each item is calculated based on your settings in the master data, but if you want everything to arrive on the same day (for example, at your warehouse in China), you can set the date in the ETA Date field and check the highlighted flag. This ensures all your items will arrive together.

Don’t forget to set the priority for this order—this helps when allocating stock to your transfer orders. You can edit details like price if needed, but most of the information will be pulled from your product settings anyway.

Once everything looks good, hit the Create button at the bottom of the page (skip the Draft option for now, as it’s not live yet). After you’ve created the order, you’ll see a success notification.




To find your new purchase order, go to the Purchase Orders section. Sort the Create Date column in descending order, and your latest order will appear at the top!




In this case 10015 is the consolidated order. You can click on the order number to check out the order details. Checkout this article if you want to download pdf or excel copy of your purchase order.
