After you have created a purchase order, you have to add one or multiple purchase order lines. For each item you want to order, you can add a purchase order line to the purchase order. For example, if you need to order 50 boxes of printing paper, you add 1 purchase order line stating the purchase item (printing paper) and the quantity (50). Other relevant data such as the unit, prices and tax rates are populated automatically on selecting the purchase item.

For information on purchase order lines fields, refer to Purchase order lines data.

The procedure for adding purchase order lines is identical to adding order lines. For more information, refer to Adding order lines.
