If you want to order items to fulfil a sale, you can create a purchase order using sales quote or sales order details that you have recorded.
To create a purchase order from a sale

Locate and select:
■
a quote—click the Quotes tab and select the required quote
■
an order—click the Orders tab and select the required order.

Click Create PO. The Purchases window appears with the new purchase order displayed. The items you entered for the sale automatically appear as line items on the purchase order.
