**The PO Folder is intended ot document the purchases made in support of the program**. 

All PO's and purchases should be recorded in this section. This includes any and all credit card purchases and travel costs. 

The reason for this is two fold. First, as project manager this will be the first place to find true costs and verify budgets. Secondly, this allows for future personnel or multi-year projects to easily keep track of vendors and vendor contacts. 


NOTE: This is not an optional folder. A suggestion unless the program is small is to have folder with the vendor name and within each folder have a sub-folder with the year. Example:
...Swagelok/2002/po12365
...Swagelok/2003/po16543
