Purchasing

There are no significant requirements to begin manual purchase ordering other than to define your suppliers and associated supplier statistics. You should replace any non Acumen purchase orders as quickly as possible if you intend to use stock control. If you have multiple branches you will wish to establish branch address details using the Branches utility option.

To begin using automatic purchasing you will first have to complete the following tasks:

• Define your Suppliers.

• Acquire stock control (See below).

• Establish a Supplier Product Catalogue. The Supplier Product Catalogue

• Establish Optimum and Maximum months required stock.

• Establish Minimum stock levels where necessary.

• Wait until the sales system has established reliable average sales figures or manually establish monthly average sales.
