MYOB Advanced : Part Shipment of PO's

We have short listed MYOB Advanced as a potential replacement for our current system but have some concerns regarding part shipment of PO's and how part shipments (ETA's & qtys ) are handled & reported in MYOB Advanced. We need to provide customers with accurate vessel ETD, ETA & Qtys shipped against PO's, unfortunately we have several suppliers that will either ship half the SKU's or tonnes required.

  • Hi HCAM 

     

    Which MYOB Partner are you talking too? The reason I ask is that there is a new Container Tracking feature available for MYOB Advanced that they may not be aware of. 

     

    Container Tracking for MYOB Advanced allows companies to view inventory in transit by allowing users to create container information tracking transactions. Items in transit can be easily loaded from existing purchase orders into container transactions created by selecting entire purchase orders, specific lines of a purchase order, or partial quantity of a purchase order line.

     

    Users are able to track the container status using user-defined container status codes such as; on the water, customs, inland transit, foreign dock. In addition, this enhancement allows for tracking of the expected and actual departure & arrival dates, payment due date as well as custom & duty information. The landed costs info is entered at the container level and is allocated to each item in the container. Landed Costs are loaded into created Receipts of Goods transactions for the container.

     

    If that is the level of detail you are after let me know the partner as the sales person may have missed this feature which was added this year. I will have a chat with the partner to upskill on this new feature.

     

    Best regards,

      Hi Carl,

       

      we are still in early discussions with Star Business Solutions. To date they have been exceptionally helpful.
