Purchase order (PO)

A purchase order (PO) is the client's formal commercial document authorising the supply of services or goods at agreed terms; its number must appear on reports and invoices for the client to process payment.

Published

Also known as: PO, PO number, client PO.

In practice

The PO arrives by email, is quoted on the report, then re-typed on the invoice weeks later by someone else. Every re-typing is a chance to get it wrong.

PO numbers in AMPS

Enter the PO once on the job in AMPS and it is filled automatically into the Word report; when the job is marked ready for invoicing the invoice is created in Xero with the job’s references. Email actions let you create jobs or add costs by emailing AMPS.
