The first step is to Create a purchase order record:
- Click Purchase orders then click New
Print a purchase order
Once created, if required you can print or email the purchase order to your supplier.
Place a purchase order on order
Place the stock on-order to see the stock ordered.
Print a goods received note (GRN)
When you receive deliveries, view or print a Goods Received Note for your records. You can print this later if required.
Update ledgers to post purchase invoices
To make the purchase invoice appear on your supplier ledger, you must now update the ledgers. This creates a purchase invoice from the purchase order.
