This simple 2-screen program derives it's power from it's integration with COBRA's Job Master Pro, Kwik Estimator, Inventory and Accounts Payable programs.
Special features in our Purchase Orders program include:
- Imports of Material Lists from all other areas of COBRA; Jobs, past POs,
Estimates and ad hoc Material Lists.
- Create Bid Requests for quotes from multiple Suppliers.
- Evaluate Material Lists for lowest Price by Item or the entire Lot Price and
generate POs from the results of the evaluation.
- Back-Order Lists can be printed by Job to give to project managers who
need to line up Labor based on when Materials are due at the Job Site.
- Receipt directly to Jobs / Inventory OR create a Job Inventory when
Materials are received and then record the Items as they are installed.
- Line up purchases for the future to ensure product availability and lock in
pricing.
- Update Inventory On Hand Quantities when Items are receipted to
Inventory.
- Automated Price History is generated each Item is receipted, so
Contractor can monitor which Suppliers are consistent in their pricing.

over billed, allowing clerk to set a Dispute on the Invoice while waiting for
a Credit Memo.
