Turn a PO into a supplier bill in one click.

In short

One-click PO to supplier bill in SwiftBooks Pro copies the vendor, lines, quantities, prices and VAT onto a draft bill and locks the PO. There is no goods-received note in that chain — check the draft bill against the delivery, then post.

What you can do

From order to bill, instantly.

No re-entering what's already on the PO.

One-click convert

Create a supplier bill from a purchase order without re-entering lines.

Skip manual bill entry when the purchase order already holds the data.

Accurate figures

Start from ordered amounts, then edit the draft if the delivery differed.
