Hello, bill@airwavedeve.
I know how important it is for you to connect Office 365 mail to QuickBooks Online to manage your purchase orders. Currently, direct integration isn't possible.
We're unable to provide the exact time frame when this will be made available. For the time being, you can search for any third-party application capable of integrating QuickBooks Online and Office 365 mail. Go to the Apps menu to find one.
I also advise you to submit product requests through QuickBooks. Our Product Development Team will evaluate your request. Once approved, they'll include it in the next update.
Here's how:
- Go to the Gear icon.
- Select Feedback.
- Enter your suggestion.
- Hit Next to submit.
You can use this link to track feature request: QuickBooks Online Feature Request.
To help you turn a purchase order into a transaction for your supplier, you can save this article for later use as a reference: Add purchase orders to expenses, bills, or checks in QuickBooks Online.
If you have further questions, please let me know. I'll be around to assist you.
