Your Purchase Orders Page

Page Overview and Purpose

This vendor site page is not yet implemented, and the following information is preliminary and subject to change between now and code finalisation.

 

The Your Purchase Orders Page allows you to enquire on the status of purchase orders that you have informed us about, where the contents of the purchase order will be delivered to us.

 

Typically, when you supply the goods that you wish us to decorate, you place a purchase order with a third party supplier, and instruct them to deliver the goods to us, so that we can use them for your job.


When you supply us with the third party purchase order details (supplier, order content, purchase order number), we create a mirror image purchase order on your behalf in our system, which has the following benefits for you:-

 

 

 

The Purchase Orders page allows you to see these details, so that you can quickly identify and understand the progress of the purchase order that you placed with the 3rd party supplier providing you with all necessary information you might need to escalate any action needed directly with them.
