  • Click on "Add Purchase Order", Then, enter the Purchase Order number, Vendor, currency, date, and other relevant details.
  • Below these details, you'll find a section for product details, like description, account, quantity, and price. You can also add a cost center or tax rate, either from the drop-down menu or manually by clicking "Add Tax Rate".
  • For taxes, you can specify the price as either "Including Tax" or "Excluding Tax".
  • To add another product to the Purchase Order, click on "Add Line" and enter the new product's data.
  • (Optional) You can add Notes & Payment details in the designated box.
  • Click on "Add Stamp or Signature" and upload the corresponding file to the Purchase Order.
  • Click "Save" in the upper left corner to save the Purchase Order as a draft.
