Anyone use a software package to generate purchase orders?
 

We currently use old school carbon copy, handwritten purchase orders at our office and the last package of them is soon to run out. We would like to get some software that can be installed on the terminal server and allow a number of us to create a PO when required. It just needs to take the next number and maintain a list of who the PO's were sent to.

We do not need it to integrate into any other accounting that we use. Anyone got any recommendations?

I'd take a look at Quickbooks. It does a whole lot more but basic P.O.'s are right up it's alley. One of the businesses I've helped uses Quickbooks for his small business. He has the multi-computer access version and it works great for him.

Have you considered simply using Google Documents?

It's free, will most likely be exactly what you want, cloud based, more than one user can access files at a time, just back it up frequently in case of a huge Google catastrophy.

I set it up for my company and everyone loves it.

You get Word and Excel type access - a spreadsheet should do what you want.

I'm going to check out the solutions offered.

We could just do it in excel or word, but that means we have to rely on people to take the next number and not save over each others files. It also means we have to rely on people to keep the list of PO's uptodate.

Trying to make it fool proof.

Will check out the ideas above - thanks all.
