A Customer Purchase Order (PO) is a document that represents the initial offer of negotiated types, quantities, and prices for products or services. Customer Purchase Orders can be created by sales users or administrators as sales orders for long-term contracts.

Configuring Customer Purchase Orders and Purchase Order Items

Administrators are responsible for setting up Order Management to allow users to work with Customer Purchase Orders. To configure Order Management for Customer Purchase Orders, perform the following tasks in order.

Under Visualforce, click New.
Click the Visualforce Page drop-down and select ManageCustomerPO.
