What is a Sales Confirmation used for?

When Buyers and Sellers in International trade place new orders, the seller (exporter) can send a Sales Confirmation document to the buyer (importer) to reconfirm all of the details of the new order. A Sales Confirmation document is usually sent to the buyer after the buyer has issued a Purchase Order document to confirm the new order. The Exporter must ensure that all information is clearly stated in a correctly formatted Sales Confirmation document to avoid having any disputes relating to product quality, specifications, pricing and delivery terms.
