Orders and payment
Accepting purchase orders by PDF, Excel or CSV
Buyers submit a PO from your storefront or upload their own file, and the app prices every line.
Pro Plan
How the flow really works: wholesale buyers send POs to you the same way they always have (email, PDF, EDI). Inside the Miko admin you upload the PO line items as a CSV. Miko matches SKUs to Shopify variants, applies the correct group pricing, and creates a Shopify draft order tagged with the PO number and customer, ready to send for payment or fulfilment. This is a merchant-side admin tool, not a customer-facing portal.
How you process a PO
- Your buyer sends you their PO by email or PDF (no change to their workflow).
- You open Miko in the Shopify admin and click Purchase Orders → Upload PO.
- Upload the line items as a CSV (SKU, quantity, optional unit price override).
- Miko validates the SKUs, matches them to your Shopify variants, and previews the order with the correct group pricing applied.
- You confirm and Miko creates a Shopify draft order. From there you can send an invoice, apply NET terms, or convert to a paid order.
CSV format
| Column | Required? | Example |
