Inventory Reorder screen

Overview

  • Provides the ability to quickly create purchase orders for products that have reached their minimum stock level.
    • Scope - Examines the inventory in an Inventory Area (Hospital Unit), for all vendors, or a single vendor.
    • Minimum Stock Quantity - For each vendor, lists the products that have reached their 'Minimum Stock' quantity - based on the 'Default Vendor' for each product.
    • Needed Quantity - Populated with the Minimum Stock Quantity plus the Reorder Quantity minus the Current Quantity, rounding up to the nearest whole stock unit for the default vendor.
    • Default Vendor - For each product, the 'Default Vendor' can be changed on-the-fly.  The change will affect the current activity, or it can be saved as the default vendor for future orders.
    • Ignore Pending - Pending quantities are those quantities that have been ordered on a purchase order that has been sent, or printed, but not yet received.  This will help prevent placing duplicate orders.

Inventory Reorder report

  • Provides the ability to quickly create purchase orders for products that have reached their minimum stock level.

Functionality

  • Products are added to the reorder list automatically.

    • The default vendor can be changed to another Vendor from a list of Vendors that have previously provided the product.

    • Vendor/Product attributes, such as sales unit for the product, and stock unit, order unit, S:St ratio, St:O ratio, vendor product number, and vendor product name, must have already been specified for the default vendor.

    • The 'Reorder Actual' quantity is calculated based on the minimum, reorder, and current quantities.

    • After the 'Generate List' button is clicked, the page will display a list of vendors that are associated with the reorder products, as the 'Default Vendor'.

    • If the product has been ordered but not yet received on a purchase order, the quantity ordered will appear in the 'Pending Qty' column.  These products can be filtered out of the list (ignored) so that they are not ordered unnecessarily.

    • If a contract is used for the default vendor, the contract will be used on the new purchase order.

    • Selecting all, or some, of the products for each vendor, then clicking the 'Create P.O.' button will automatically create a purchase order for each vendor, containing only the selected products.

    • The 'Purchase Order Search screen' screen will open, allowing the User to specify a 'Univ. PO Number', make any necessary changes, then send or print the purchase orders.
