Purchase Order Entry

You can use Purchase Order Entry or the Purchase Advice report to create and manage purchase orders. Our software includes available product information including current inventory levels for products, current customer demand, previous sales history, reorder quantity, critical quantity, and more. You can also review information like brand name, packed by, last cost, market cost, last three order quantities, units of measure, and date of purchase. 

Maintain an order guide for each vendor, so you can quickly and efficiently create repeat purchase orders. You can even track vendor promotions and rebates to take advantage of vendor deals. Purchase orders can be printed, faxed, emailed, or sent using Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). 

You can also control who purchases what by assigning products to purchasing agents and controlling their purchasing with purchase order approval options. 

Use purchase order charges such as freight, fuel surcharges, and inspection fees to add miscellaneous costs onto a purchase order. These costs are then allocated against the products on the purchase order to maintain a true landed cost.
