How do you create a purchase order in QuickBooks Online?

To create a purchase order in QuickBooks Online, you need to follow the procedure that aligns with how QuickBooks structures its transaction entries. By clicking on the "+ New" icon, you access a menu of transaction types, including the option for "Purchase Order." After selecting this option, you can enter the necessary details for your purchase order, such as vendor information, item descriptions, quantities, and any other relevant notes. Once all details are filled out, saving the purchase order finalizes the creation process.

This method is straightforward and user-friendly, aligning with QuickBooks Online's design to simplify accounting and tracking of expenses. The process directly supports efficient management of purchasing activities, allowing you to maintain organized records for inventory and vendor transactions.
