Introduction
Product Purchase Management is by far the most important plugin to better manage your inventory, increase process efficiencies, and take your business to the next level. Centered around purchasing and supply chain, the plugin allows you to formalize purchase and vendor management. It does so by allowing you to raise Purchase Orders, receive goods against the POs and record goods returned to vendors. The plugin also allows you to carry out Goods Receipts and Goods Issues.
Features
Raise Purchase Orders
This plugin allows retailers to raise Purchase Orders on vendors, receive goods against the Purchase Orders and even allow them to return goods back to the vendors, if required. You can also import Purchase Orders from an Excel spreadsheet using the import feature.
Goods Receipt against a Purchase Order
Reduce duplication of data entry by converting the Purchase Order to a Goods Receipt. Doing so copies the terms and conditions like discount, surcharge, etc. on to the Goods Receipt document.
Support for staggered receipts
Many times a Purchase Order is fulfilled in multiple shipments. Ability to receive products across multiple shipments ensures consistency of data across multiple receipts.
eMail support
Go Green by sending the Purchase Order to your supplier on an email. Purchase Order can be sent directly to the email id specified in the address details of the vendor.
Goods Receipts and Issues
Using this plugin, you will be able to record all types of goods receipts, especially the goods received from vendors (suppliers). Goods issue is a transaction that comes handy in not only returning goods to vendors, but also to adjust inventory levels in the stores.
