Cloning a Purchase Order (PO) is helpful when you need to repeat an order previously placed with a supplier. You can clone a PO regardless of its current status.

To clone simply go to the Sales & Purchases tab --> Purchase Orders

On the right-hand side of each PO, you will see the clone icon:

Click this icon to clone the selected PO

For this example, lets clone PO-527

Once you click the clone icon for PO-527, a new PO will be created.

You’ll notice it appears as a “New Purchase Order”, but all relevant details are copied from the original, including:

• Supplier

• Delivery Address

• Items (Quantity, Unit Cost, etc.)

The only detail that changes automatically is the Order Date, which updates to the date you cloned the PO.

You can adjust any details as needed before saving.

When you’re ready, choose one of the following:

• Save as Approved
  Locks the PO and marks it as approved (no further edits allowed).

• Save as Sent
  Marks the PO as “Sent” and locks it from further edits.

• Save to Draft
  Saves the PO as a draft, allowing you to continue editing later.

Once saved, the remaining steps follow the standard Purchase Order workflow.
