You can create supplier orders directly from the purchase list (Purchasing → Purchase list) by selecting the desired products there and clicking the blue button at the top. To do this, each product must have a supplier assigned to it.
You can find out how to check whether your purchase list reaches your supplier's minimum order value here.
Editing a supplier order
Once you've created the supplier order(s), you're automatically taken to the overview of all supplier orders (Purchasing → Supplier orders). Click on an order there to open it.
Using the blue Edit button, you can edit the fields in the upper area under Summary and, for example, adjust the destination warehouse. The address of the selected warehouse is used as the delivery address on the order document.
In the Sales Channel field, you can select the Sales Channel for which the order document should be created. If a Sales Channel is selected, the logo, billing address, and business information from that Sales Channel's document configuration are used on the document. The delivery address continues to be controlled by the selected warehouse. If no Sales Channel is selected, the global document configuration is used.
You can find out how to customize the document configuration per Sales Channel in the article How do I customize the documents for my supplier orders?.
In the Order items section, you can double-click a row to adjust the order quantity and purchase price, or use the context menu to remove a product from the order. If you make a change to the purchase price here, a prompt will appear asking whether you want to permanently apply the price to the corresponding supplier. If this is the default supplier, the purchase price in the product details under the General tab will be overwritten accordingly.
If at least one goods receipt has already been recorded for an order item, and its purchase price differs from the ordered purchase price, a warning icon appears next to the item's purchase price. This lets you immediately see that the actual delivered purchase price doesn't match the ordered price, without manually comparing the order and goods receipt.
Printing product labels from a supplier order
You can generate product labels for the items in a supplier order directly from the order — for example, to prepare the labels before the goods receipt.
To do this, open the supplier order and go to the Items section. Use the Print all product labels button to generate labels for all items in the order. The number of labels per item is based on the Order quantity.
If you only want to print individual items, select them using the checkbox column and use the Print selected product labels action for your selection.
The window for defining barcode content, layout, and size is identical to label creation from the product overview. You can find out more in the article How do I create labels for my products?.
Next to the blue edit button at the top, you'll find another button with a downward arrow. There you'll find various actions related to the supplier order.
In the Documents and photos tab, you can upload files directly to the supplier order, e.g., quotes, order confirmations, or other documents from your communication with your supplier. To do this, click the Upload button and select one or more files (PDF, PNG, and JPG/JPEG are supported). The uploaded files are displayed as individual tiles in the Supplier order section and can be deleted again via the context menu.
Additionally, photos and documents recorded via the WMS App for linked goods receipts are displayed here. These appear in a separate section with the corresponding goods receipt number as the heading and cannot be deleted from the supplier order.
In the Comments tab, you can view comments that have been recorded for the supplier order or add your own comment using the Edit button.
In the Custom fields tab, you can maintain additional information such as internal references, order notes from the supplier, reconciliation flags, or approval notes. To do this, corresponding custom fields must have been configured in advance. Detailed information on this can be found in this article.
Well-maintained custom fields can help you with a wide variety of processes and can be fully customized to your needs. For example, you can use them to:
Document internal approvals & review steps
Approved by team lead
Budget reviewed
Second approval required from €1,000
→ The complete approval status is visible directly on the supplier order — without external lists or email coordination.
Record agreed delivery terms & deviations
confirmed delivery date
partial delivery approval
replacement item agreed
deviating packaging or quantities
→ Everything clarified in exchange with the supplier is transparently documented in the system.
Individual process notes for goods receipt
Check sample first
Straight to photo storage
Quality check required
Campaign: Black Friday
Special placement: Storefront
→ The goods receipt team can immediately see how to handle the order — without anyone needing to be informed manually.
You can then send your supplier order. You can find out how this works here: How do I send a supplier order?
Can I add products to supplier orders afterwards?
If you want to add products to an existing supplier order afterwards, you can do so directly within the order — for example, to respond flexibly to replacement delivery offers or additional deliveries from the supplier.
Completed supplier orders can no longer be changed. In this case, the input field is grayed out and shows the note "Items cannot be added to completed supplier orders."
To do this, open the corresponding order and click Edit at the top. Then scroll to the Order items section. Here you'll now find a search bar with the note: Select a product to add it to this supplier order. Here you can search by product name, product number, supplier product number, or manufacturer number. Only products that are already assigned to the respective supplier and are not yet part of the order will be displayed.
Select a product to add it. A window will then open where you can set the Order quantity and Unit price.
The order quantity is automatically pre-filled with the minimum order quantity from the product-supplier assignment (default value: 1), and the unit price is pre-filled with the supplier's purchase price. You can adjust both values if needed.
You can find out more about sending supplier orders afterward here.
