I've got a couple of clients who generate Purchase Orders, Repair 
Orders etc from Access (Heck - I wrote a system which did this in 
Dataflex back in the late 80's).  

Even have one system where the manager approves them, generate them 
as reports, convert them to PDF and emails them to suppliers (plus 
internal notifications  to various departments) all with a single 
button click.

If you have people filling out paper forms and then hope it gets 
entered properly later, you always run into data inconsistencies and 
missing records.
