Example - Standard Report

Multiple Vendor - Below Minimum Summary

Note:    For items to be pulled to the order, the amount on hand has to be lower than the minimum amount to stock.  The maximum amount to stock, less the amount on hand, will be recommended for ordering. Vendors with no items below the minimum amount to stock will not display.  This report reads the vendor number in the IVM "Vend 1" field.

Note:   Edit the items listed for each vendor and tag with a "p," "d," or "s" if you want to make an order for the items.  Save the report and go to IVO ("Make Purchase Orders") and choose "Order from a Saved Work Order."  Enter the distributor you want the items that are tagged with "d" or "s" to be ordered from.  This will create a purchase order for the distributor and each vendor that you have tagged with a "p."

Headings
