InterAcct "Quick" Purchasing| ü | You select a Product Item from the Stock Database. | ü | There is now a new menu item for Product Items - Create Purchase Order. | | ü | Viewing the current stock position, and the suggested re-order information, you decide you want to purchase more of that stock item. | ü | By selecting this menu, all you need input are two fields (the Operator, and the Quantity). | | ü | Rather than selecting all products that need purchasing at that time, you simply want to raise a "Quick" purchase order for just that product item. | ü | At this point, the Purchase Order is created automatically. |
Software Features: | ü | There are actually two places under a Product Item where you can create a "Quick" Purchase Order. One, under the Product Item itself, and the other under a Warehouse for that item. | ü | The Min/Max stock level, the Minimum Order Quantity, and the Order Multiples are copied in (as a guide) from the Suggested Re-Order info. | | ü | The current "Net" stock balance is shown too. That is, stock on hand, less Reserved stock, less Customer Backorders, and plus outstanding Purchase Orders for that Product Item. | ü | |
| ü | There are essentially only two fields required to input in order for InterAcct to automatically create a new Purchase Order | ü | The required delivery address is copied in automatically based on the default Warehouse location. You can also select other locations. | | ü | The latest unit cost price is copied in automatically, but this can be amended if necessary | ü | You have the opportunity of updating the Supplier's Part Number here too, plus the Min/Max stock levels. | | ü | The Purchase Order date, and normal delivery lead time are copied in automatically. The expected delivery and payment dates are calculated automatically as a result. | ü | Delivery instructions can be appended, plus a line of comment. In addition, at the next menu you can input any number of 'free format' notes. |
| ü | Once you have input the two fields (Operator and Order Quantity), the system has created the Purchase Order automatically. | ü | Further notes may be added to it, or you might decide to add more Product Items to your purchase from that Supplier (see Menu 1 above). | | ü | It links you automatically through to display that Purchase Order. You can simply "print" (email) it now. | ü | All the normal search enquiry files have been updated automatically during this process. That is, purchase orders outstanding by Product, Supplier, Warehouse, Stock Transactions, etc. |
