Purchase orders and delivery notes

Business includes purchase order and delivery note workflows for teams that need more operational documents.

Purchase orders

  • Create a purchase order when goods, services, or operational work need formal tracking.
  • Keep supplier, customer, item, quantity, and price details accurate.
  • Use consistent references so purchase records can be found later.

Delivery notes

  • Use delivery notes to record what was delivered, supplied, or handed over.
  • Link delivery records to related sales or operational documents where the workflow supports it.
  • Keep delivery notes with the customer record for later reference.

When these tools are useful

  • Agencies, service firms, suppliers, and operational teams that need proof or structure around what was ordered and delivered.
  • Businesses where invoices alone do not provide enough delivery detail.

Good to know: Use these documents consistently from the start, otherwise reporting becomes difficult later.
