Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The receiving department's copy of the purchase order will help them ensure that the goods received match the order placed with the vendor, which strengthens internal control. The purchase order sent to the receiving department may have additional notation or instructions specific to that department, but it should contain the same information as the copy sent to the vendor. The copy sent to receiving should have a unique identifier, such as a sequential number, to ensure proper tracking and verification of receipt. Therefore, options A, B, and C are incorrect.
