Purchase Orders in Brightflag (Overview)

Brightflag’s Purchase Order (PO) feature allows organizations to track and control legal spend by linking invoices to Purchase Orders at the matter level.

POs are managed directly on each Matter.


What POs Do

  • Link invoices to approved funding

  • Track spend against a PO amount

  • Restrict vendor usage (if assigned to a specific vendor)

  • Support multi-line PO tracking (if enabled)


Where to Manage POs

Go to:
Menu > Matter Management > Search/Add Matters
Open a matter → Select the Purchase Orders tab


Important Behavior

  • If a PO is Inactive, it cannot be assigned to invoices.

  • Each PO can be linked to a specific vendor, or left unassigned.

  • POs must match the invoice currency.
