Use Case: Creating Customer Purchase Orders
Business Context
Customer Purchase Orders let users record and link a customer's PO to orders, line items, or billing schedules, so invoices can be validated against PO terms before billing. This speeds up invoice approval, reduces revenue leakage from mismatched or expired POs, supports customer compliance policies, and gives finance teams a clear audit trail between what was sold, authorized, and billed.
A customer PO must be created before a sales order is created from it.
Requirement
The requirement is to capture the details of the customer purchase order by creating it manually using the Order Management UI.
Customer Purchase Orders can be created automatically through integration, as long as the Purchase Order data comes to Conga in a machine-readable format (for example, XML or JSON). For assistance with this procedure, contact Conga Professional Services.
