Purchase Order Essentials [Part 1]: The Header

Описание: Stop shipping delays and credit holds by mastering the PO Header. In Part 1 of my Purchase Order Framework series, I break down the foundational data every PO needs to be accurate.

Does your PO have the correct legal letterhead? Is your PO number truly unique? In this comprehensive 30-minute masterclass, I dissect the anatomy of a Purchase Order Header. I go beyond simple data entry to explain the "why" behind PO numbers, vendor legal names, and the critical difference between "Ship By" and "Arrive By" dates.

What You’ll Learn:

The "Secret Sauce" of a unique PO Number convention.

Why duplicate POs are an Accounts Payable nightmare.

How a simple error in the PO Header leads to a failed 3-Way Match.

Why "Requested Date" is too vague for international shipping.

Payment Terms: Net 30 vs. 2% Net 10 explained.
