If you want to open ALL of the POs in the list, press “Enter” or click the “OK” button. However, if you want to select just one PO from the list, or some smaller subset of POs, click the row buttons of the PO(s) you wish to open. Press “Enter” or click the “OK” button.
TIP: If you’re selecting several rows by clicking them with your mouse, hold down the control key so previously selected rows remain selected.

The Results grid initially defaults to all purchase orders and narrows down based on the search criteria entered. To open a PO place a check in the box at the beginning of the row and click the OK button. If you want to open multiple POs, check each box then click the OK button.
