Purchase Orders¶
As of Sales Pack v2.0.
The Purchase Orders feature is available in Sales Pack.
Purchase Orders are issued to suppliers. They specify the products the company needs to purchase from the supplier, along with their quantities and agreed prices.
Access to Purchase Orders is controlled by Roles.
The Purchase Order has the Supplier field. Upon selecting the supplier, the Purchase Order's address fields will be automatically populated. The selected supplier also determines prices that will be applied for products in the order.
Purchase Orders can be printed to PDF and sent in an email.
Multiple Receipt Orders can be created from one Purchase Order. If Receipt Orders created for a Purchase Order do not fully cover all its items, the next created Receipt Order will include the missing items. You can also add extra items to the Receipt Order if needed.
