Cases and Single Items

Mar 09, 2006 5 Replies

We order cans in packs of 12 or 24, but sell them individualy, when I create a P.O., (having set the suppliers tab in the item properties to reflect the case quantities) we are generating orders that sometimes lists the cases required, and sometimes lists in individual cans, but at the case price!! When we receive the order, the programme sometimes stocks as individual cans, which is what we want, and sometimes lists the cases which can mean we have as much as 48 cans in stock, but we think we only have two.



This means we always have to check and recheck anything we are buying in case lots. Any idea how to fix this anyone?

We have an advance PO Processing module for RMS that handles this as well as supplier discounts by QTY etc...

I might not understand completely what you are asking but if you only order one size i.e. single cans, then why not set all the cases sizes so they cannot be placed on a PO? This is accomplished from the properties of the individual item's properties on the Options tab. Check 'Do not allow this item to be placed on purchase orders'.

I order and sell cans the same way you do Jay, thanks for the explanation, I'll try it.
