Navigating Purchases

  1. Select the Download button to download impact reports
  2. Search the Purchases page by typing into the search bar. For example, you can search for jeans to show all of your jeans on the purchases page.
  1. Sort the Purchases page by clicking the arrows next to the column. For example, you can sort the PO Date column for the purchase order date. You can also show or hide columns within the table.
  1. Group the Purchases page by dragging a column header to the top of the table. For example, if your products were purchased in several different companies, grouping by the Country header can help organize your inventory more efficiently. The grouping feature also aggregates the Quantity and Total Impacts as indicated by the Sum total in each column.
  1. Toggle between Compact and Normal views by selecting the toggle at the upper right corner of the table. You can change your view depending on your viewing preferences.
  2. You can also save a view by selecting Save Columns and giving a name to your view. Saving a view makes it easier to access an already customized table specific to your organization.
