When you return to the browser tab with WISK, you’ll see a prompt asking if you have placed the order.

If you have placed the order, click “Order placed”, otherwise, click “Not yet”.

When you click “Order placed” the purchase order that you generated in WISK is archived. This is because when the order arrives, you’ll receive it by importing the invoice from the SAQ Portal directly. To learn more, please see:
