A purchase order is for a possible FUTURE sale. That sale could be months (or even years) away. And it is NOT a guaranteed sale.

It could be a purchase order for something that is no longer carried, in stock, or manufactured. It could be for a quantity that the company would not be able to deliver on. It could be for some new piece of tech that hasn't even been created yet.

There are many reasons why a purchase order is NOT equal to a sale.
