Zoho Purchase Order

Description

The Zoho Purchase Order activity allows users to manage purchase orders in Zoho CRM by performing operations like retrieval, creation, update, and deletion. It supports both single-record and bulk operations, making it ideal for procurement automation and vendor data syncing.

Use this activity to:

  • Get – Retrieve a single purchase order by ID
  • Get All – Retrieve all purchase orders
  • Create – Add a new purchase order record
  • Create Many – Add multiple purchase orders using field mappings
  • Update – Modify an existing purchase order
  • Delete – Delete a purchase order by ID

Use case: Inventory monitoring workflows can trigger purchase order creation via ZohoPurchaseOrder when stock levels drop. Vendor and product details can be mapped using StaticLookup and Fill Columns. Approvals can be requested via Notification, and vendor updates can be sent through Send Email Attachment.
