    Prepare purchase order creation

    Select the supplier and budget lines, then enter description, quantities, prices, terms and delivery date. Review the total and attach the required commercial support.

  3. 03

    Complete the workflow in Perfour

    Prepare the order as a draft, submit it, approve or reject it, and track execution until completion or cancellation. Statuses separate an editable request from an authorized commitment. The order can start from authorized line items and preserve its allocation.
