How to Create a Purchase Order

When you’re purchasing goods or services, you’ll typically begin by creating a Purchase Order (PO). A PO formalises the request, ensures accurate tracking, and provides a clear record for both your team and your suppliers.

Latner offers several ways to create a Purchase Order, depending on the workflow you’re in.

1. Manual Purchase Order

Use this option when you need to raise a PO directly, without linking it to another process.

2. Through a Rental Contract

When purchases are tied to a rental contract, you can generate a PO linked to this rental contract.

3. Through Transport

If external transport is required, you can raise a PO directly from the transport docket.

4. Through a Work Order

For maintenance, servicing, or repairs, POs can be created directly from a Work Order.
