Understanding Visit Charge Purchase Order

A “visit charge purchase order” typically refers to a purchase order issued to a Vendor or Supplier for services rendered during a visit or an appointment. This type of purchase order is commonly used in industries where services are provided on-site, such as maintenance, repair, or consultation services.

When a Vendor or supplier makes a visit to a customer’s location to perform a service, a purchase order is issued with the details of the service, including the visit charge. The purchase order serves as a formal agreement between the customer and the Vendor or Supplier regarding the services to be performed and the associated costs.
