    Ordering Samples (pretend business) hee hee

    Ok here is the situation, I am trying to follow suit of some people on this forum. I am trying to "act" like a business to order a "sample". Well just being a teacher and not to business minded, they asked for a "Purchase order". So what should I give him? How do I do this?

    Thanks for any tricky advice!

    I've worked at more than one company whose p.o.'s were just the persons initials and a date and then an a,b,c,etc or 1,2,3 at the end if there were multiple orders in one day.

    the PO number is just simply for your "records". They only do this so that in case your "company" has a policy to not accept anything ordered without a PO. Honestly where I used to work we would always say "just use the date" and no questions were ever asked.

    NO, NO, NO, I am not abusing "Free" Samples, I'm paying for them. But instead of buying 2000 in bulk, I would like to try their product out first....

    I had to ask for a sample because the part wasn't available anywhere else. Half the popular maxim chips are that way, digi-key and mouser don't carry them.
