ALCIE Purchasing

ALClE's Purchase Order module provides enterprise-wide instant tracking of Orders and Requisitions by requisitioner, buyer, vendor, item, order, project or job. Purchasing is automatically integrated with ALCIE's Distribution, Manufacturing and Financial modules. Requisitioning is either item or vendor driven and supports non-purchase order expense requisitioning. Accounts Payable vendor invoices reconcile with both purchase order receipts (with automatic inventory cost adjustments as required), or non-purchase order requisitions.

Some Distinguishing Features:

• Unlimited line item comments.
• Dual requisitioning methods.
• Centralized buyer-oriented Purchasing model.
• Distributed vendor-directed Purchasing model.
• Automatically generate purchase orders from requisitions.
• Multiple requisition types can be user-defined with not-to-exceed thresholds.
• Non-purchase order requisition types may be defined.
• Define whether requisition type automatically reserves Purchase order numbers or not.
• Automatic generation of requisitions by Order Entry (drop-ship orders) and Inventory Control.
• Accrual system used for items received, but not yet invoiced.
• Vendor, item and pricing history may be retained indefinitely.
