You can create a purchase order for goods or services you need from a supplier. You might do this to fulfil a sale or to order goods for your business. Your purchase order will detail the goods or services you need from the supplier, their prices, and a shipping address. You can then send the purchase order to the supplier.

Once you receive the supplier's bill for the things you've ordered, you can convert the purchase order into a bill. This lets you pay the supplier just like any other bill.

If you've ever created a bill in MYOB, you'll find creating a purchase order is much the same.

Creating a purchase order

Go to the Purchases menu and choose Create purchase order.
Choose the Supplier you're ordering from.
(Australia only) If the order will result in a reportable payment, select the option Report to ATO via TPAR. Learn more about Reportable contractor payments.
Enter the Shipping address where you'd like the order delivered.
If necessary, change the Purchase order number. This number is automatically generated, based on the last number used.

If you change the number, you’ll change the automatic numbering. For example, if you change the number to 000081 , the next time you create a purchase order, the new number will be 000082 .
If you have a Supplier invoice number or Promised date from the supplier, enter these.
Select whether the amounts in the order are Tax inclusive or Tax exclusive.
Click Field layout and select the applicable option based on what you're ordering.
Enter details of the items and/or services you're ordering. Here's our example:
