Connected Sales to Purchase Ordering
Due to a reliance on manual processes, many companies often take customer orders for items they do not have in stock, and in some cases the customers want the items drop shipped to them directly from the vendor. This requirs a lot of manual tracking between the sales orders and purchase orders, and they often have trouble tracking which items they received belong to specific customer orders.
With Microsoft Dynamics GP, you have the ability to configure Sales Order processes to easily track back ordered and drop shipped items, as well as easily create and link the necessary purchase orders, so they can eliminate the manual work to track and fulfill these transactions. Testdrive Dynamics GP now in order to learn how to:
- Place and order for an available item and review inventory levels
- Change the shipping information for an order
- Place and order for an out of stock item
- Generate a PO for a backordered item
