When writing an order letter, you will include all the information the reader need to identify the merchandise, such as: Quantity Material Capacity Dimension Pder by sending an order letter
In an order, the buyer must state clearly and accurately all the terms of transaction. Usually an order should include name of commodity, quantity, article number, specification, total amount, and price terms (CIF, FOB, etc.), mode of packing, delivery date and port of destination.
2. The following points are about tips on how to reply an order.
(1) Begin the letter with many thanks of the client’s interest in your goods. (2) Accept or reject, acknowledge the order immediately. (3) Better repeat the terms stipulated in the order when it is accepted. (4) Give reasons when the order is rejected. (5) Offer suitable substitutions in case the goods needed are unavailable. There is no set principle for writing such kinds of letters. As long as the purpose it achieved, the writer can compose it freely.

Guidelines for writing
1. Here are some points which may be useful for writing order letters:
(1) Begin an order with referring to some previous contact. (2) Give a detailed description of the goods needed including names of commodity, models, quality and quantity, etc. (3) Specify the package, mode of payment, port of shipment, time of delivery, etc.
Guidelines for writing
I. Placing an order
Sometimes, a buyer might use a business letter to place his order. Usually, however, they are written on a company’s official printed order form called a “Purchase Order”, which makes it easy to read all the important information. A buyer can use its own company’s form or it can fill out the seller’s form.
