Integrated Purchasing System

One of the most power systems in the Project System is the “Order Purchase System.” This tool can automatically generate required Purchase Orders on a “Need To Order” basis. The system is SMART in that, with one key, all items in a project will be ordered taking into account, current inventory levels. The system will automatically separate items by Manufacturer and create separate “Dedicated or Group” Purchase Orders.

Later on when items come in for these projects, the system will automatically “Allocate” the received items to the appropriate projects, placing any unallocated items in stock for future orders. The system also has the ability to FUTURE ALLOCATE ITEMS to projects when extra items are ordered.

After receiving the items, the system can create Picking Reports for moving Inventory around the warehouse and can even store the location of the “Job Bin” where the parts are stored in the warehouse.

Additionally when items come in, the Sales Person and Project Manager is NOTIFIED of the receipt of the items to help expedite the Order or Project (Get the Project ready for Installation).

The Inventory System works in REAL TIME so that you immediately know what Inventory is available at any point in time.

NEW Alternate Vendor / Supplier Capability which allows you to store and use alternate suppliers for an Item. The system records the Alternate Vendor / Suppliers for history and look up Capabilities.

NEW When creating Purchase Orders, you can now pass Messages or Words from a Project / Estimate to a Purchase Order thereby speeding up the Purchase Process. This is useful when you have to tell the Supplier things like Frequencies or Drill Codes or any other information in a Project.
