I purchase the same product from multiple suppliers, but I am forced to have multiple inventory for the same item because it will only input the primary supplier’s item number in my purchase order, i...
This is very needed, thanks Sabre.
The ability to use an "Item" for purchases, sales & inventory really needs some improvement. At this point int time the system is too rigid and narrowing and we end up with thousands of unecessary and confusing long lists of Items numbers and sometimes unecessary stock, to get around these silly restriction as Sabre has posted how they are getting around the blockage.
The Item Card should have a seperate tab for the Buying "description", Currently the same as the Selling description so we have to make a new buying Item and then a build scenario.
Each item card should have the ability to add Extra Tabs for multiple suppliers of the One item if the user needs to add some in. This would allows us to anylse supplier options prices etc, and could even include a comments box for freight info or other options when buying from the named supplier
The Build feature should have a drop down column that offers the option to select an alternate/interchangable part from stock or from a "backup supplier" to fill the void for the particular sale at that point in time - but so that when an alternate is selected, the action does not change the build structure for future use to this alternative supplier part.
Flexibility to cope with the reality of day to day business is really really needed.. I think it could be made awesome buy opening up the flexibility of the item card. Would be very powerful!
