The operating problem
What needs to become clearer
Purchase Order: Meaning for a Small Business affects more than data entry. It influences how staff communicate, how the owner reviews work and how quickly a mistake is corrected during creating, correcting, printing and retrieving sales documents during normal business hours; purchase order needs one accepted source of truth.
Recommended approach
Start with the workflow, then test the software
Build the purchase order routine around the decision it supports. To make that decision reliable, document the present billing path and test it from item selection through payment and day closing and review sample invoices, correction cases, payment records and a signed day-end check on a fixed schedule.
