Step 1: Receive Purchase Order

Type: Save Data Entry

In this initial stage of the purchasing process, a purchase order is received from an external entity. The receiving party reviews the order for completeness and accuracy, ensuring that all necessary details such as product specifications, quantities, and delivery dates are included. The receiver also verifies the authorized individual or department responsible for approving the purchase within their organization, typically involving procurement personnel. This step sets the foundation for subsequent actions by providing a clear understanding of the requirements outlined in the purchase order. Key information from the purchase order is extracted and documented, including any specific instructions, delivery schedules, or product configurations. The received data serves as a reference point for downstream processes, ensuring that all parties involved are aligned with the customer's expectations.
