If you create a sales order and don't have enough stock of the desired item, you can consider this order as a reservation for the item when it becomes available, and create a purchase order from the sales order to provide the desired item.
In this article, we outline the steps to do so.
Creating a Purchase Order from a Sales Order
Go to the Sales module.
Open the “Sales Order” page.
Search for the sales order you want to generate a purchase order from.
Click on "More Actions".
Click on "Create PO".
You will be redirected to the Purchase Order page, and all the items and quantities from the sales order will be automatically filled in.
Select the destination warehouse (usually the branch’s warehouse).
Click on "New".
Select the Supplier.
Click on "Save".
If you encounter any challenges or have any questions during these processes, you can contact our technical support team, who are ready to assist you.
