[Evergreen-acq] Direct charges on POs

[Morgan, Christine]

Hi Tiffany,

Our libraries add charges directly to invoices. In most cases, they don't
know these amounts until they receive the invoice. Not having them
encumbered with the PO does not seem to be an issue since the amounts are
small.

Hope this helps,
Christine
