There is this Doofus narrative, Prepare a flow chart from it..

The storeroom supervisor checks the manual inventory perpetualrecords to identify items that need to be reordered. He prepares atwo-part prenumbered purchase requisition [PR] to replenishinventory. The supervisor sends part 1 to the purchasingdepartment, and files part 2 by requisition number.The purchasingdepartment selects a vendor and prepares a five-part prenumberedpurchase order [PO]. Part 1 is sent to the vendor. Part 2 is sentto the receiving department. Part 3 is sent to accounts payable,which files it until it gets a receiving report. Part 4 is sent tothe storeroom, which compares the PO to the PR, and files the twodocuments together in the PR file. Part 5 is filed with the PR byPO number.

The receiving department files part 2 of the PO by PO numberuntil the goods are received. When the goods are received,receiving inspects and counts the goods, compares the vendor'spacking slip [PS] with the PO, and prepares a three-partprenumbered receiving report [RR]. Receiving sends the PS and part1 of the RR to purchasing. Part 3 is filed with the PO by vendorname. It then delivers the goods to the storeroom with part 2 ofthe RR.When the storeroom receives RR part 2 with the goods, itupdates the inventory perpetual records and files the RR with thepreviously filed PR and PO.

When the purchasing department receives the PS and RR copy 1from receiving, it files them with the previously filed PR and PO[by PO number] until it receives the vendor's invoice [VI].Purchasing then compares the VI, PO, PR, PS and RR. It sends part 1of the RR, along with the VI, to vouchers payable [a function ofthe accounting department]. Purchasing then files, the PR, the PO,and the PS in a permanent file, by PO number.

Accounting files the PO by PO number until it receives the RRand VI from purchasing. Accounting then prepares a payment voucher[an authorization to pay the invoice] and posts the payable to theVouchers Payable journal. Accounting sends the payment voucher,invoice, PO, and RR to the cash disbursements department forpayment [do not be concerned with cash disbursements].

NOTE: You may assume that appropriate action is taken wheneverany identified comparison reveals a discrepancy [In other words,you may ignore dealing with, say, receiving finding a mismatchbetween a PS and PO]. Otherwise, assume that if some thing oraction is not described, it does not exist or is not performed.
