Emails in the purchase process are used for multiple purposes, including requesting product specifications, sending purchase orders to suppliers, confirming or acknowledging orders, sharing shipping and delivery updates, and sending invoices or payment confirmations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accessing Purchase Orders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To create a new purchase order or RFQ in Odoo, start by opening the Purchase module from the main menu. Here, you can also view the details of previous purchase orders. To initiate a new RFQ, click the \u201c+<strong>New<\/strong>\u201d button, which opens the form for entering purchase details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the RFQ form is open, the next step is to select the vendor from the Vendor field. For example, you might choose a vendor like GK TRADERS then, select the product to be purchased in the Product field, such as \u201c<strong>[2014064] <\/strong><strong>SHORT SIZE NOTE<\/strong>\u201d. After saving the form, Odoo automatically generates a Purchase Order Reference ID, such as \u201c<strong>CHN\/PO\/001230<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After entering the basic purchase details, the RFQ can be sent directly to the vendor via email. By clicking the <strong>\u201cSend by Email\u201d<\/strong> button, a pop-up window appears displaying the recipient\u2019s name and email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup-1024x535.png\" alt=\"Odoo Integration Compose Email Popup\" class=\"wp-image-34436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup-1024x535.png 1024w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup-768x401.png 768w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup-1536x803.png 1536w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/Tenthplanet-Odoo-Integration-Compose-Email-Popup.png 1831w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The email subject is automatically filled based on the RFQ details. The RFQ is attached in PDF format, ensuring the vendor receives all relevant information.
