How Meteroid Helps You Get Paid Faster with Purchase Orders

What is a purchase order number and why it matters

A Purchase Order Number (PO Number) is an internal reference the customer provides to their Account Manager. It links the invoice they receive back to the original quote or contract, allowing the customer's finance department to validate and approve payment.

For many large companies, including a valid PO Number on the invoice is mandatory. Without it, payment can be delayed or blocked entirely. Managing PO Numbers accurately is key to a smooth Quote-to-Cash process and healthy cash flow.

Manage purchase order numbers with Meteroid

Meteroid makes it simple to capture and apply PO Numbers across the Quote-to-Cash process:

1. At quote signature: When a customer signs a quote, they can enter their PO Number directly. Meteroid automatically carries it forward to the corresponding subscription and invoice.

2. At subscription creation: The Account Manager can add the PO Number to the subscription in Meteroid. All subsequent invoices will automatically include it.

This way, every invoice matches the customer's internal approval process, eliminating delays, disputes, and manual back-and-forth.

Get paid faster

By embedding PO Number management directly into your billing workflow, Meteroid helps you align with enterprise procurement requirements and get paid on time.
