Create a Purchase Order

A purchase order is an agreement established between a lender –usually a financial institution– and a customer. The purchase order in Fairways Debt represents an envelop of individual loans (i.e. loan orders) used for different projects requiring substantial investments. These loans are then negotiated between a lender and a borrower and submitted to a validation workflow between this lender and this borrower.
