Purchase orders

What is the purpose of a purchase order?

The order form is a document intended to be sent to the customer so that they can return it to the establishment to validate or formalize an order (for example in a B2B, administrative, or remote ordering context).

Document contents

The order form looks like an invoice in its presentation, but it clearly displays the words "Order Form".

• The total amount
• VAT amounts
• The invoice number (if available)

Download and send

The order form can be downloaded and sent in the same way as other documents: download as a PDF, send by email, by SMS, or any other transmission method offered by the software.

Mention of quote or order number

If the order is validated, the expense report will indicate the order number.

If the order has not yet been validated, the expense report will clearly display the mention "Quote" to indicate that the order is still in the quote stage.
