Purchase order overview

A purchase order is a legally binding commercial document between you (the buyer) and a supplier. The purchase order indicates the types, descriptions, quantities, agreed prices, payment terms and delivery dates for products or services you want to purchase from the supplier (also known as, seller or vendor).

DecoNetwork Business Hub lets you create purchase orders instantly by automatically generating the list of products required based on the orders that you receive. The automated purchasing workflow is designed to make the purchasing process more efficient and to help optimize inventory levels and minimize spending. It allows you to order only what you need at the click of a button.

Use purchase orders in Business Hub to plan your purchases and track receipt of stock. You can quickly and easily create fully customizable purchase orders from within an order or from the Purchase Orders page and instantly send them to your suppliers. You can email the purchase orders to your supplier within Business Hub if the supplier does not support live ordering. If a supplier does support live ordering and you have set it up, purchase orders can be automatically sent to your supplier's ordering system.

Only users with Administrator or Purchasing roles can access the Purchase Orders page.
