A Purchase Order (PO) is an online order that includes detailed product information—such as quantities, sizes, colors, pricing, and delivery terms—that you send to a brand / supplier. Once the brand approves the PO, it becomes a confirmed order and the brand can prepare and ship the goods to you.

Placing your first order in NuORDER helps streamline how you buy inventory. You can browse digital catalogs, select products, and submit wholesale orders in one place—and, if connected to Lightspeed Retail POS (X-Series), import approved orders directly into your POS for faster receiving and inventory management.

Before you begin  

Make sure that:

• Your Retail POS (X-Series) account is connected to NuORDER.
• You have access to at least one brand.
• You are assigned the Buyer role (if applicable).

Placing your first purchase order

Your first order always starts in your NuORDER account. Here, you can browse more than 4,000 brands, connect with the ones you want to work with in the Marketplace, explore their product catalogs, and select items that match your store’s style.

Once you place an order, you can import it directly into Retail POS (X-Series), making receiving and inventory management faster and significantly easier.

Each brand is a separate order. Place them individually. Follow the same steps for every single brand.

To create your first purchase order in NuORDER:

1. Open your NuORDER account. (Optional: From your Retail POS (X-Series) backoffice, go to the Wholesale page, then click Explore the Marketplace. You’ll be redirected to your NuORDER account.)
2. Hover over Marketplace from the left navigation menu and select Shop Products (if applicable).
3. Choose a brand you’ve already connected with to access its catalog.
4. Browse the product gallery or linesheets.
5. Select a product to view its details and choose sizes and other attributes.
6. Click Add to Order.
7. Repeat for other products.
8. When finished, click the Cart icon in the upper-right corner to finalize your order.
9. Review your order: check out totals, confirm variants and quantities, verify shipping information.
10. Click Submit.

What happens next is the Order status changes and the Brand receives notification.

Now, you can also reorder directly from your Retail POS later; integrated orders are automatically submitted from Retail POS to the matching supplier in NuORDER.
