# Supplier Purchase Orders

> 📍 **Where can you find this module?**
> *Main menu > Purchases*

Like any purchasing management tool, Kafinea provides an entry form for purchase orders.

It is possible to create a ***Supplier Purchase Order*** in three different ways:

- Directly from the ***Supplier Purchase Orders*** module, via the path: ***Purchases > Supplier purchase orders***
- From the record of a ***Supplier*** ***Account***. The contextual button* "Create supplier purchase order"* opens the form, pre-filling the supplier with its own information.
- From a ***Customer Order***. The contextual button* "Create supplier purchase order"* opens the form, pre-filling it with certain details from the Customer Order, namely: the detail lines with their comments, and the Customer’s delivery address.

The purchase order is similar to other purchasing forms you are familiar with. Once your document is saved, your purchase order is displayed.

You will find the functions you are used to for purchases. Tabs at the top of the document allow you to quickly view important information, such as related documents and the goods receipt notes associated with your purchase order.

- you can send the purchase order directly to your supplier by email
- you can convert the purchase order into one or more delivery notes

[box]** Tip:** From a **Supplier** record, among the various available tabs, you can view the orders already saved for this supplier and add others. A contextual button is also available to create a purchase order directly. [/box]
