creating Purchase orders

Good day, @JT5882.

QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) allows us to copy an estimate into a purchase order. This takes a few clicks from your account and I'm happy to guide you how.

First, enable your inventory and purchase orders from the Preferences.

1. From the File menu, select Preferences.
2. Click on Items & Inventory at the left pane, then go to the Company Preferences section.
3. Check the box beside Inventory and purchase orders are active.

Then, create a purchase order from your estimate.

1. Open the estimate transactions.
2. Tap on Create Purchase Order at the upper-right corner of the page.
3. Select either you'll Create purchase order for all allowed items or Create purchase order for selected items, then click OK.
4. Fill in the necessary information from the Purchase Order page, then hit Save and Close.

I've also got this handy articles under Income and expenses for your future references when managing your income and expenses in QBDT.

Keep in touch with me if you still need more help with this. I'll be here. Keep safe, @JT5882!
