Purchase orders
Overview
The easiest way to add terms and conditions to your vendor orders is to set them as a default in your company settings. Once saved, they are attached to every vendor order you send out.
Set Default Terms and Conditions for Vendor Orders
- In the bottom left corner of the left-hand menu, click Settings (the gear icon).
- Click Estimating settings.
- Scroll down near the bottom, past the profit margin defaults and your company-wide terms and conditions. The company-wide terms and conditions are the ones sent on your quotes to clients.
- Under Vendor/sub settings, find Default terms & conditions and enter the terms and conditions you send to your subs and vendors.
- Click Save changes.
Your terms and conditions are now attached to your vendor orders.
Summary
Go to Settings > Estimating settings, scroll near the bottom to Vendor/sub settings, enter your terms under Default terms & conditions and save. They are then attached to all of your vendor orders.
