Purchase Order can be Trade or Non-Trade but adding new record is basically the same for both. There are just some fields that are not available in Trade but only available in Non-Trade (e.g. Department) purchase order.
You normally use Trade to purchase goods and Non-Trade is for internal purposes only
Go to Purchasing (Menu) > Purchase Order (Sidebar Menu) > Trade (Sub Menu)
Purchase Order Page with some default values will be displayed in MAIN tab.
Label ending with an asterisk * indicates that the field is mandatory.
