Questions about the PDF purchase order template
Is it really free?
Yes. The download is free, with no sign-up, no email and no watermark. The online builder is free too.
What's the difference between a purchase order and an invoice?
You (the buyer) send a purchase order before delivery to place the order. The vendor sends an invoice after delivery to ask for payment, quoting your PO number so you can match the two.
Is there a version that calculates totals?
Yes. The Excel purchase order template has formulas, and the online maker works out every total for you.
Is it the right paper size?
The blank PDF is US Letter. If you need A4, choose pounds or euros in the online maker and download from there, or print with Fit to page.
