Key screens and actions
1
Manage suppliers
Maintain supplier records; a supplier can be created, edited and deactivated.
Each supplier’s related purchase orders are visible from its detail.
2
Raise a purchase order
Create a PO for a supplier with the units and quantities to order. The
purchase-order list tracks each PO’s status.
3
Receive a purchase order
Record receipt of a PO’s lines; the variance view highlights differences
between ordered and received quantities, and receiving updates stock.
4
Return to vendor
Raise an RTV, ship it back to the supplier, and record the credit once
settled.
