Converted POs are POs which undergo a change to their PO number. In these cases, the old PO number is no longer valid for invoicing and suppliers are requested to invoice against the new converted PO number.

The most common reasons for Intel converted POs are migrations of POs from one system of record to another, or conversions due to the migration to the Euro within Europe. Intel communicates to its suppliers during the timeline of such conversions.

The Intel® Web Invoice application will not permit a supplier to submit an invoice against a PO that is no longer valid, as a result of a PO conversion. To assist suppliers in locating the valid PO number, which replaces the old number, the Intel® Web Invoice application provides a Converted PO Query.

The Converted PO query will retrieve a table that lists a supplier's old PO numbers next to the new PO numbers, which provides the cross reference. The list is supplier specific and only lists the POs for the supplier logged in to the application, per the registration profile.

Please note that the application does not automatically replace the old PO number with the new PO number and the supplier should note the converted PO number and then proceed with the Create Invoice process using the new PO number.
