At this stage a purchase order is created related to this sales order.

If you have EDI / e-commerce gateway setup to drop the purchase order information to supplier, it should trigger now.

Supplier ships the parts to customer and will send us back the confirmation.
Once the confirmation is received we need to create a receipt.
