Purchase order (PO)
A buyer’s document confirming what they intend to purchase.
A purchase order is issued by the buyer to the vendor and lists items, quantities, agreed pricing, and delivery details. It helps both sides align before fulfillment and can be referenced later on invoices and receipts.
