Hello, @arundel.

 

Allow me to assist you in creating a purchase order.

 

Before we proceed, I would like to ask which statements you are referring to. 

 

Currently, the feature to add receive orders and purchase orders to statements is unavailable in QuickBooks Online (QBO). However, I can guide you on how to turn on and create purchase orders.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear (Settings) icon in the top right-hand corner. 
  2. Choose the Account and Settings option under the "Your Company" column. 
  3. Tap the Expenses tab. 
  4. Press the Pencil (Edit) icon in the Purchase Orders section. 
  5. Turn on the User purchase orders option. 
  6. If you want, enter up to three custom fields and a default message for vendors. These are optional. 
  7. Click Save and then Done when ready. 

 

For more detailed information on how to create a purchase order, you can refer to this article: Create and send purchase orders in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you receive inventory from the purchase order (PO), we can convert the PO to a bill each time you receive the item. This way, the quantity of the item will be added to the inventory (Products and Services) list. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the +New button.
  2. Under Vendor, choose Bill.
  3. Click the Vendor drop-down arrow and then choose the vendor's name.
  4. All existing PO's will display on the left side. Select the correct PO and click Add
  5. Click on Save and close once done.
