Part Purchases: To Be Ordered - Multi-Vendor Page

The To Be Ordered - Multi Vendor Page includes a chart that organizes Purchase Order Requests for multiple vendors with filterable columns. On the default layout, important columns include type, location, vendor, item, quantity, costs, salesperson, and more. The table’s selector and merge column is to the left. Users can create and save customizable layouts as well as choose shipping type, confirm and delete purchase requests, export table, and change chosen columns. [Add pictures/videos]

How to select bulk or specific Part Purchase Orders

The Multi Vendor Purchasing table allows creation of orders with multiple vendors. Selecting items with different vendors will combine all orders into a single purchase order of multiple vendors. When on the To Be Ordered - Multi page, users can select as many items, regardless if they are of different vendors, when creating purchase orders.

  • This allows for easy ordering to distributors instead of ordering from a specific vendor
  • To purchase items from one specific vendor, use the To Be Ordered - Single Vendor page

How to Filter or Search in different columns

To view a specific purchase plan, use the search tool to filter for either the SO Reference # (if created in the Point of Sale), or Item #. To view purchase plans made to multiple vendors:

  1. Filter by clicking on the Vendor’s filter icon
  2. Select the desired vendor
  3. And then select OK

The searches will filter for a manageable list of Part Purchase Requests ready to be all selected at once and then bulk ordered. The creator and salesperson are also a filterable classification allowing users to see which order requests they, or another user created.[Add pictures/videos]

Item, superseded Column

Users can access the item dashboard by clicking the item numbers listed in the item column. The item column includes item information such as if the item is Superseded, as well as if it is a stock order, or has a Core. [picture of icons]

  • Superseded: A superseded item is an item that has been replaced with another updated item
