Confirm what you intend to fulfill
Use this document after reviewing the customer’s request. Identify yourself as Seller, enter the customer’s purchase-order reference and list the agreed products or services. Add fulfillment timing, delivery arrangements and exclusions in the notes.
Track an order through fulfillment
A customer orders five units at 120 each. The sales order records a pre-tax value of 600 and the expected delivery date. A packing slip can later record the units actually shipped, while an invoice requests payment under the agreed terms.

Keep the document’s purpose clear
A sales order is a confirmation record, not proof that goods were delivered or money was received. This tool does not reserve inventory or email the customer. Save a version and send the PDF through your normal business channel.
