My suppliers get confused with the way you show the PO numbers.
They dont know if the letters PO are a part of the purchase order number ( ie PO1122) or if it is not part (1122).
So they enter it the way they think and it is not consistent and makes bookkeeping a mess. I would suggest that you fix this to not include the letters PO right next to the PO number. IE like this PO Number: 1112.
Or if you want the letters PO to be a part of the number, again the same thing: PO Number: PO1122
Hi Ray,
Thank you for the post and your feedback.
Currently we are including the letters "PO" as part of your Purchase Order numbers to help prevent confusion with order numbers.
In addition our default email message includes the phrase "purchase order PO1001", and your PDF purchase orders will specify PO Number PO1001 in the top right corner.
Hopefully that should help to clarify the actual Purchase Order numbers for your suppliers.
Thanks.
