Drafting purchase orders
From the dashboard's low-stock list, tick the items you want and click Draft PO(s) in Xero. ReorderPilot creates one draft PO per supplier with:
- quantities from your rules (never below the MOQ),
- unit prices from each item's purchase cost in Xero,
- each line posted to the item's own purchase account — nothing is hardcoded,
- tax left to your organisation's defaults — ReorderPilot never sets or overrides tax,
- a "Created by ReorderPilot" reference.
POs are created as drafts. You review, approve, and send them inside Xero — ReorderPilot never sends anything to a supplier.
Duplicate protection: items already on an open draft or submitted PO are skipped automatically, so clicking twice can't double-order. Every PO created is listed on the Activity page with a direct link into Xero.
