What is the difference between a Sales Order (SO) and a Purchase Order (PO)?

A Purchase Order (PO) is sent by the buyer to request goods or services, whereas a Sales Order (SO) is issued by the seller/supplier back to the customer to confirm stock allocation, agreed pricing, shipping terms, and dispatch dates before invoicing.

Can I reference the customer's Purchase Order number on my Sales Order?

Yes. Our Sales Order generator includes a dedicated Customer PO Reference field alongside your internal Sales Order number so both accounting teams can match documents effortlessly.

Is this Sales Order PDF generator completely free with no signup?

Yes. You can create unlimited Sales Orders and export crisp A4 PDFs directly in your browser without creating an account.

How Sales Orders Streamline B2B Fulfilment & Invoicing

A Sales Order (SO) bridges the gap between receiving a customer's Purchase Order and issuing a final VAT invoice. By confirming exact SKUs, quantities, carrier method, and dispatch dates in writing, your warehouse and accounts teams prevent shipping discrepancies and speed up invoice approval.
