our company got switched to the new layout, but I can't seem to figure out how to create a PO from an estimate there. Can anyone help?
Online I can only find the instructions for the old layout, which do not work.
Thanks
Thank you for your effort in searching for the conversion instructions for the old layout, @Matteo_S. I'm here to clarify the feature changes for the new one.
I can see how challenging it is to navigate the new layout. Please know that converting an estimate to PO in the updated template is currently unavailable. You can only do so for invoices.
If you still see the Old layout button, you may switch back to get the option of transforming the estimate to a purchase order. You'll also want to send Feedback to our developers so they can review and consider this for future updates.
To proceed, open the estimate transaction. Take a look at this screenshot for your guide:

You're always welcome to comment below if you have other questions about estimates or purchase orders. I'll be here to answer them for you. Have a great day!
Is there a plan to re add this feature in the new layout?
Thank you

I was trying to do this for a client of mine. This is the worse way of doing anything! Why would this team change something that worked just fine? My clients are frustrated and hate the fact they cannot change an estimate to a PO to then turn to an invoice. This is horrible. I wish I could change to the old layout, but that's not an option for my client. Can you not touch things that worked just fine? Your team should be fired for changing a perfectly working system. Estimate to PO to Invoice -- what you have now is complete trash.
