Hi there, @Mercy.

 

Thank you for visiting the QuickBooks Community. I can share details to ensure you're able to create a purchase order.

 

To proceed, let's enable the purchase orders from the Preferences. Here's how:

  1. Go to Edit and select Preferences.
  2. Select Items & Inventory, then the Company Preferences tab.
  3. Check the Inventory and purchase orders are active checkbox and select Ok.

 

To learn more about estimates and purchase orders, feel free to open these links:

 

I've also got this handy articles under Income and expenses for your future references when managing your income and expenses in QBDT.

 

Additionally, you can generate reports to have a view of your expenses and accounts payable, see this link for the detailed steps: Vendor reports. This article will also provide you with steps for customizing those reports. 

 

Post your replies here if you have any other concerns with your purchase order. I'm more than willing to lend you a hand.
