We see both. Our organization, B2B, uses only PO's. Most of our
customers, B2B, use PO's. One customer has a mix, B2C - credit cards,
B2B - PO's and their largest customer PCards.

Are organizations still writing Purchase Orders? Or, are they buying
with Purchase Cards? My gut feel is that most organizations are issuing
Purchase Cards (Visa, Mastercard, etc.) to employees, assigning various
credit limits to cardholders, and having people order directly from
vendor web sites, rather than going through a PO approval process. But
I thought I'd ask.

I'm in the middle of designing a database for a Purchase Order system -
part of a new IBM i Financial Accounting system. Purchase Orders have
long been a standard component of enterprise financial accounting
packages, but I sometimes question their relevance in a world where so
many vendors are putting up shopping cart applications on their web
sites.

Thanks,

Nathan.
