Free Purchase Order Template (UK)

A straightforward purchase order for UK small businesses that want to control what they buy and keep suppliers clear on what was agreed. Raise a PO with its own number, set the order and delivery dates, list what you are ordering, and the net, VAT and total work themselves out. There is a delivery address, terms and an authorised-by line, so approvals are recorded and nothing is ordered by accident. Sending a clean purchase order also makes your supplier invoices easy to check, because you can match them back to the order. Enter your details in the blue cells, send it to the supplier, and keep a copy for your records. It is free to download and reuse for every order.
