Who is this article for?

Anyone receiving stock or tracking supplier orders

Create a Purchase Order from supplier paperwork or enter it manually, then review the matched lines before submitting stock updates.

Start the Order

1
Open Purchase Orders and choose + Create Order.
2
Confirm the receiving Location. Inventory updates apply there when submitting.
3
Choose Upload Invoice for document processing or Create Blank Order for manual entry.
Create Purchase Order screen with Main Venue selected and Upload Invoice or Create Blank Order options View larger
Choose the receiving location before uploading supplier paperwork or starting a blank order. This is the initial choice screen; nothing has been submitted.

Add Pages and Items

A blank order starts with No Pages Yet. Choose Add First Page to open the working editor.

Review Supplier Name and Invoice Date, then add or match the items on each page. You can upload invoice pages and add further pages for a multi-page document.

For uploaded invoices, check extracted quantities, prices and catalog matches. Document processing does not replace your review of the supplier invoice.

Validate and Submit

Review Validation Status and resolve incomplete or incorrect lines. Confirm the receiving location and all pages before choosing Submit Purchase Order.

Submission processes the order's inventory updates. Do not submit a duplicate order simply because an upload or processing step is still loading; review the existing order and its status first.

Find an Existing Order

Use state tabs, supplier or order-number search, location and invoice-date filters on Purchase Orders. Open the matching order to continue its review.
