Purchase-agreement

The terms and conditions meant to be agreed upon between the customer and the vendor can be specified in a Purchase Agreement. Before creating a purchase order, it is important that both parties agree to the terms and conditions specified in the purchase agreement. You will get a separate platform in Odoo to manage such purchase agreements. These purchase agreements can be used by creating purchase orders.

First, you need to activate the Purchase Agreements option from the Settings menu. It will be available under the Orders tab as shown in the screenshot below.
