Purchase Order Numbers

What's a Purchase Order Number?

Medium and large companies almost always use a Purchase Order Number system to track orders placed by their employees. Purchase Order Numbers are typically issued by Accounts or Contracts & Materials departments and ensure that when suppliers submit invoices they can be matched up with orders and paid. Difficulties in matching invoices to orders can cause long payment delays which is why future implications insists upon being supplied with a Purchase Order Number (or equivalent, see below) before commencing work.

We will commence work on the strength of a Purchase Order Number given verbally and continue working so long as written confirmation is received promptly thereafter. Work will not be delivered until such written confirmation is received.

Our company doesn't use Purchase Order Numbers, what can I do?
