Purchase Orders are typically issued by the buyer and also include details of payment terms, shipping instructions, product specifications, delivery schedules and more.

If you’re looking for some protection when purchasing products from another party consider using a purchase order!
A purchase order can also provide protection in case there is a dispute between the buyer and seller about what was ordered or delivered while making it clear who has legal responsibility for returns, refunds or damages if necessary.
