One of the most effective ways to handle purchases is through the use of Purchase Orders. A purchase order (PO) is a formal document that helps businesses keep track of items they wish to buy from suppliers. TallyPrime, one of the most popular accounting software, makes it simple to create and manage purchase orders.
What is a Purchase Order?
A Purchase Order is a document sent to a supplier indicating the types, quantities, and agreed prices for products or services the buyer intends to purchase. It is an official record of what has been ordered and serves as a contract between the buyer and supplier.

- Convert Purchase Order to Purchase Invoice when goods are received.
Once the supplier accepts the order, it becomes a legally binding agreement. The purchase order helps businesses track pending orders, manage inventories, and ensure proper delivery.
