Purchasing

The Purchasing module manages the purchasing cycle from entry of the order and receipt of the goods through to the allocation and processing of the supplier’s invoice.

The Purchasing system is broken down into the following three main processes.

  • Purchase ordering (manual and suggested entry)
  • Shipping invoice tracking
  • Purchase receipt entry (and their associated inquiries and reports)

Also provided is the option to automatically create and place orders on the Suggested Order File. A report of the suggested orders is printed and the user may alter or cancel the order or any of its titles. Official order forms can then be printed (by supplier) and the ordered titles transferred to the Open Order File. [Read more…]
