Are the totals calculated correctly?

Yes. Each line total is quantity times unit price, the subtotal is the sum of all line totals, the tax is the subtotal times your chosen rate, and the grand total is subtotal plus tax. Everything is rounded to two decimal places so it reconciles.

Is this real purchase order data?

No. Every vendor, buyer, PO number, and amount is randomly generated and fictional. It exists only to give procurement and ERP software realistic-looking input without using anyone's real records.

Can I control the currency?

The amounts are shown as plain numbers with two decimal places and no currency symbol, so you can treat them as whatever currency your test environment uses. Only the tax rate is configurable.

How many line items does each PO have?

Each purchase order has between two and five distinct line items drawn at random from a catalogue, with quantities and unit prices generated within realistic ranges for each item type.

Is anything sent to a server?

No. All catalogues and the calculation logic are bundled into the page, so generation happens entirely in your browser with no network requests and no data leaves your machine.

Fake Purchase Order Generator

This tool generates fake purchase orders for testing procurement software and ERP system demos. Each document includes a PO number, a date, a fictional vendor and buyer, a set of priced line items, and correctly computed subtotal, tax, and grand total. Because the maths reconciles, you get test data that behaves like the real thing without touching anyone’s actual records.

How it works

The generator assembles a complete, internally consistent purchase order:

It creates a PO number in the form PO-YYYY-NNNNN, a recent date, and picks a random vendor and buyer.
It draws two to five distinct catalogue items, assigning each a random quantity and a unit price within a realistic band for that item.
It computes each line total as quantity times unit price, sums them into a subtotal, applies your tax rate, and adds tax to produce the total.

All money values are rounded to two decimal places at each step so the document reconciles exactly when fed into accounting or procurement software.

Tips and notes

Set the tax rate to match the locale your software targets — for example 20 for UK VAT or 0 for tax-exempt tests.
The copy-as-text output is convenient as a fixture file or for pasting into a ticket.
Treat every value as fictional; never mix this output with real vendor or financial data.
Everything runs locally in your browser, so you can generate as many distinct POs as your test suite needs.
