More Information on Purchase Order Options 

...

USASWEB/Purchase Order will allow one item to be charged to more than one account. The line item will be divided, displaying the separate account codes on the screen; however, the line item will be combined into a single item on the printed purchase order
There are two ways of combining items:

• Splitting the Quantity: involves splitting the quantity of a particular item among several different account codes. The price must be the same for each item, and you must enter the quantity desired that will be split up among different account codes before clicking on the qty icon.

• Splitting the Price: involves splitting the price of a particular item among several different account codes. The quantity must always be one, and you may enter the total price desired that will be split up among different account codes before or after clicking on the price icon.< >

If the total price is greater than 9,999,999.99 it MUST be entered into the pop up rather than the original item screen

Image Removed

The collapse button Image Removed  rolls all of the split items up into the first account code, so you only see one account code, which is how the purchase order will look when printed. The first account code entered is called the "combined item" meaning the line item the rest of items are being rolled up into when collapsed. The line items underneath the combined line item are called "split items."
