What is a purchase order?
A purchase order is a document a buyer sends to a vendor to formally request goods or services. It lists the items, quantities, agreed prices, and delivery terms, turning a verbal or informal request into a clear, trackable record that both sides can reference and that helps control spending.
What information should a purchase order include?
A purchase order should include a unique PO number, the buyer and vendor details, an itemized list of products or services with quantities and unit prices, the total amount, payment and delivery terms, and a requested delivery date. Clear details help vendors fulfill the order correctly and avoid disputes.
What is the difference between a purchase order and an invoice?
A purchase order is created by the buyer to request goods or services and confirm what will be ordered. An invoice is sent by the vendor after delivery to request payment. The PO comes first and authorizes the order, while the invoice closes the transaction by billing the buyer.
