Purchase orders, supplier bills, payments, and payable control

Procurement & Payables gives the supplier side the same structure as customer billing: supplier records, purchase orders, bills, payments, and due visibility.

Raise the PO, watch supplier commitments, and control payables

Procurement should be clear enough for daily purchasing and structured enough for finance. This sequence shows PO creation, the purchasing library, and the finance view that keeps supplier balances visible.

Supplier, currency, due date, tax, and item rows stay together.
Who opens this

Three people, one record between them

Purchasing

Order against agreed prices

Build the purchase order from the supplier and item records, so quantities and rates are the ones already agreed.

Accounts payable

Know what is committed

Open orders and supplier balances sit together, so a commitment is visible before the bill arrives.

Owner

Approve spend deliberately

What has been ordered, received, and paid reads as one picture rather than three separate ones.

Start to finish

Raise it, receive it, then pay it once

A purchase order carries into receiving and payables, so the same commitment is never entered twice or paid twice.

  1. 1

    Maintain supplier records with terms, currency, contact, and billing details.

  2. 2

    Raise purchase orders and send branded PDFs.

  3. 3

    Convert or record supplier bills and attach payment status.

  4. 4

    Track supplier payments, payable aging, and job cost references.

The honest comparison

What this replaces

Most companies already do this work. The question is what it costs them in re-typing and chasing.

  • Purchase orders emailed and forgotten Orders tracked through to receipt and payment
  • Supplier balances found only at month end Payables visible as commitments are made
  • Prices retyped from an old email Supplier and item records the order reads from
What changes

What stops being a surprise at month end

The point of a workspace is not the feature list. It is what stops being someone's problem.

  • Purchasing stops living in email and spreadsheets.
  • Finance can see what is owed, to whom, and when.
  • Supplier-side costs can connect back to jobs and service work.
Before you decide

Questions we get asked

Ask us something else
Does procurement require Billing & Finance?

Yes. Procurement depends on the billing and item foundation because payables share the same finance and catalog structure.

Can purchase orders be downloaded as PDFs?

Yes. Purchase order PDFs follow the same document theme system as other business documents.
