Purchasing

iMaint realizes the importance of issuing and tracking purchase requests and purchase orders. To make this process more efficient and accurate, the Purchasing Module will automatically generate purchase orders as they are needed based on the re-order method specified for each part. Furthermore, iMaint allows you to generate purchase orders two other ways; you can enter them through a purchase request, or you can manually enter them in the purchase proof. iMaint can generate a “re-order alert report;” this report shows you what needs to be ordered including parts you need for outstanding work orders. Additionally, maintenance users and other users outside the maintenance department can submit purchase requests for parts to be ordered by the iMaint purchasing system. You can also set approval limits on a per dollar, per user basis; ensuring your employees don't purchase too many items.
