Square’s comprehensive purchase order management software takes the legwork out of your procurement process, allowing you to generate orders when stock runs low. Pulling through data from your inventory management ensures purchase orders are more accurate. It also stores all your vendor data in one place, allows you to track and compare vendor performance and can make smart forecast reports on exactly what you should reorder and when.

Purchase order systems will cut down on human error during the ordering process, reduce procurement and inventory storage costs, and save time on dull but essential admin tasks. You can use it to keep control of purchases, costs and payments.

Simply go to your Square Dashboard and click on Items > Inventory Management > Purchase Orders. From there, you’ll be able to create purchase orders, input the details, save them and send them to the vendor.

You can use a template to create a purchase order but with Square’s purchase ordering system, all the hard work is done for you. Head to inventory management on your dashboard. Select on purchase orders and follow the steps to add items, vendor details, and delivery date, to create a new purchase order.
