When an order is created or a quote is converted to an order, a purchase order is automatically generated for each supplier within the main order.

To access the purchase order(s) for an order, go to the Orders section of the project and on the order number.

From the order details, click on Purchase Orders from the options on the left.

Each purchase order will be listed with a status indictator of "PO Not Sent" or "PO Sent". Click on the three dot icon in the upper right corner of the listing to expand the preview and sending options.

The options in this menu are:
