Raise a PO to a supplier and link it to a job from your mobile phone

QuickBooks Online

Hi there, @lee-valleyelectr.

As of the moment, there isn't an integrated way to create a purchase order and use its related functions while logged in on the mobile application. It is recommended to enter your purchase orders and link them to a job by logging in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account in a web browser.

Therefore, I'm adding this article to learn more about how you can enter purchase orders: Create and Send Purchase Orders in QuickBooks Online.

While the option is not yet available, it's best to let our product developers know about your request by sending feedback. This way, the program, and system design can be improved concerning the option to enter purchase orders on a mobile app. I'll show you how.

Open the QBO app on your mobile device.
Go to Menu.
Under All, select Feedback.
Enter a few words describing how you wanted to have the option to enter purchase orders while using the mobile app.
Select Send feedback.
Click Got it.

I'm including our Customer Feedback for QuickBooks Online page to track the status of your request and get the latest updates from our developer team. Updates such as how the recent enhancement made to QBO helps our business owners, like you.

It'll always be my pleasure to help if you've got other questions aside from working with purchase orders in QuickBooks. Use the Reply button and leave your comment below so that I, @JonpriL, can assist you further. Take care always and stay safe!

Welcome to the Community, shaun. I'll share insights about generating purchase orders (PO) in the QuickBooks Online (QBO) Mobile App.

Currently, the option to create a purchase order using your QuickBooks Online (QBO) Mobile App is unavailable. I acknowledge the benefit of making this available on mobile applications to make transactions handy for your business.

The feature may not be available for now, I suggest sending this suggestion to our product development team. Our product developers are responsible for evaluating and implementing new enhancements, so they would be better equipped to determine the feasibility and benefits of your suggestion for our users:

Go to the Gear icon.
Select Feedback.
Enter a brief description of your product suggestion.
Click Next to submit feedback.

For now, we can create your purchase orders by logging into your QBO company file on a web browser. Moreover, use this article as a reference in running PO reports to ensure that orders are accurately processed, and deliveries are timely: How to run purchase order reports.

Keep me posted if you have additional queries about managing transactions on the mobile app. The Community always has your back. Take care!
