FAQ
Purchase Order — Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions UAE founders, freelancers and SMEs ask about the purchase order.
- Is the FoundersNeed Purchase Order Maker really free?
- Yes — the first 100 documents every 30 days are free for every user, no signup required. Upgrade to Pro (79 AED/month) if you send more than 100 documents per month or want saved history.
- Do I need a TRN to use the Purchase Order Maker?
- No. A TRN (15-digit FTA tax number) is only required if your business is VAT-registered. If you do have one, add it to your saved company profile and FoundersNeed will print it on every document automatically.
- Does the Purchase Order Maker support 5% VAT?
- Purchase Order documents usually don't carry a VAT line. If you need a tax invoice instead, use the FoundersNeed Invoice Maker.
- Can I add my company logo?
- Yes. Upload your logo once on the Purchase Order Maker and FoundersNeed embeds it at the top of every PDF you download. Pro users can save it permanently in their reusable business profile.
- What format does the purchase order download in?
- A clean, print-ready PDF that renders identically on desktop, tablet and mobile. You can also print directly from the browser or share the document over WhatsApp and email.
- Is the Purchase Order Maker usable across the GCC, not just the UAE?
- Yes. The defaults are UAE-localised (AED, 5% VAT, emirate addresses), but every field is editable so the Purchase Order Maker works for KSA, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait — just swap the currency and tax line.
- Where is my purchase order stored?
- Free users keep nothing on FoundersNeed servers — the PDF is generated in your browser and downloaded directly. Pro users can opt in to save full document history to the dashboard for instant retrieval.
- Can I edit a purchase order after I download it?
- Open the Purchase Order Maker again, change any field, and re-download. Pro users can reopen any saved document from the dashboard, tweak it, and re-export — useful for revisions, addendums and reissues.
