Welcome to FlairSuite. A purchase order tells a supplier exactly what you want to buy, how many, and at what price. In this short video, we will create one, and then find it in the list.
First, sign in with your username and password.
Purchase orders are under Vendors, Purchase Orders. The list shows each order with its number, supplier, total and approval status. To start a new one, click Create purchase order.
A new draft order opens. Click the Supplier field, and choose who you are buying from. You can type the first letters of their name to search.
Click Add Item, and choose the product you need. Then enter the quantity, ten pieces, and the price the supplier quoted, twelve dinars each. The totals update as you type.
Click Save. The order is kept as a draft, so you can still change it. When it is ready, Send to Approval passes it to your manager before it goes to the supplier.
Back in the Purchase Orders list, type the order number in the filter and click Apply Filters. Here is our new order, with its supplier, total, and draft status.
That's it. We created a purchase order, chose the supplier, added a product with its quantity and price, saved it, and found it in the list. Thank you for watching.
