The Accounting Department receives the invoice and copies of the purchase order and receiving report.

  4. A purchase requisition is a list sent to the purchasing department showing the items to be ordered. A purchase order is an order to the supplier of goods specifying items needed, quantity, price, and credit terms. A receiving report is a form showing quantity and condition of goods received.
