  2. What is a Purchase Order? A purchase order is a binding contract that outlines the exact details of an agreement, between a business and its vendors. The documents are essential for any business looking to buy goods from its suppliers or create custom orders with their respective manufacturers; it specifies details about what goods are being purchased, how many items need to be delivered before payment can happen, and when they should arrive in the possession of the said business.

  3. Benefits Of a Purchase Order • Removes duplication of orders • Helps to track incoming orders • Serves as a legal document between the purchaser and the suppliers

  4. Types Of Purchase Orders 1. Standard Purchase Order Standard purchase orders are the most used type of PO and the easiest to understand. The use for a standard PO often falls under the need for sporadic purchases, one-off orders with specific requirements. Despite this flexibility, Standard POs are always more detailed than other types, making them ideal when businesses want certainty over absolutely everything that will be bought from a supplier.

  6. 2. Planned Purchase Order Planned purchase order (PPO) differs from a standard PO in that delivery information is omitted. Thus the delivery date and location for each item are not included when creating one of these documents, but all other details like what items will be purchased, the number of units of a product to be purchased, and also the price at which item will be purchased can be committed to the buyer.

The list of what items will be purchased is still included in a BPO - just without any detail on quantities or prices.
