What’s a Purchase Order (PO)

In the procurement process, a Purchase Order (PO) serves as a vital document initiated by the buyer and transmitted to the vendor. Approval procedures for POs can vary across companies, influenced by factors such as the nature of the purchase, involved department, and purchase value.

A PO becomes a legally binding document upon vendor approval. Therefore, it’s crucial to ensure thorough scrutiny before it is transmitted to the vendor.
