Overview

An acknowledged Purchase Order (PO) is one that has been approved for fulfillment, meaning that items on the Purchase Order will be prepared for shipment. 

When a PO is generated in the system, it gets populated at the seller portal automatically so that the seller can acknowledge the PO and complete the transaction. This article explains how to acknowledge a PO.
