Working with Purchase Orders
A
Purchase Order is an order placed for procuring products or services
from your vendors. It is a legal binding document that protects
interests of both the vendor and buyers. In general, a Purchase Order
(PO) contains the PO number, date, line items (products) including the
quantities and prices based on the Sales Quote, Billing address,
Shipping address, and Terms & Conditions. You can use the PO for
communicating your product and pricing requirements to vendors so there
will not be any pricing questions in future. You can also use the PO to
cross-check the products shipped to your shipping address and invoices
sent to you. In addition, your vendor can use the PO as a legal document
in the event of nonpayment in a court of law.
