Basic excel template help

[floorcrete1]

Hey, i am making a excel PO forum for my company.

i've created a basic template, but was struggling with a few things.
I want to set it up like quick books, where after you log a po ( either saving it or opening a new tab),
a new template appears with the locked info (date, name, ect. cells) but i want the PO to automatically generate in a numerical order.

is this possible?

( i guess if thats confusing. i need help setting up a template that with every tab the same "po page" appears, and the PO number generates on its own)

Thanks. if that wasnt to confusing

( ps im a total novice at excel / computers so be gentle please)

You said your pretty novice, are you at all familiar with macros? As long as the template format doesn't change this should work. This is assuming labels are in column A and the data is entered in column B(all of which to be changed based on however your template is set up), B1 would be your PO number. I would assign it to a big button with text something along the lines of "Save & New". Make sure it's saved as an xlsm file.
