Purchase orders
What you have ordered from a supplier and at what price, before anything arrives.
Steps
-
Open it
Purchasing → Purchase Orders → New.
-
Pick the vendor and warehouse
The warehouse is where the goods will be received.
-
Add the lines
Products, quantities and the cost you agreed. Tax on a purchase is worked out from your tax rules, not typed in by hand.
-
Send it
Email it or share a link. MCPOS records that it was sent and when.
-
Track it
The order shows what has arrived and what is still outstanding as goods receipts come in.
Good to know
- A purchase order alone does not change stock or your accounts. Receiving the goods does.
