Purchase order
Once a buyer and a seller have finalized their negotiations through the purchasing contract negotiation process an agreement has been reached, a purchasing contract is created.
Depending on the purchasing contract type one or multiple pairs of procurement orders and customer orders can be created. The purchase order is the business object on the customer side, the customer order is the business object on the vendor side. They are bound together through the b-op network, if both parties have their b-op digitals and they share enough trust.
If there is not an existing contract that governs the relationship between buyer and seller, the purchase order can be used in place of a contract. Each purchase order is assigned it’s own unique number, known as the purchase order number.
