Stock Reorder
From the main menu select Stock, Reorder
- AutoMagic will suggest which stock items need to be reordered.
- Allow you to make adjustments to the list of items to be ordered.
- Add the selected items to a new purchase order, if the reorder is for a specific supplier.
How is the quantity calculated?
The quantity for order is calculated as the maximum value of any of the following.
- The Reorder qty in the stock list.
- The difference between the
stock on hand
andstock maximum
- The suggested sales, if this calculation is activated.
Why does the stock item not appear in the reorder list?
- The
stock on hand
is too high; thestock on hand
is not below the stock minimum. - The stock item does not match the supplier or group selected.
- The stock minimum is set to zero.
A stock minimum of zero means “We do not stock hold stock for this item” see Stock Fields
Why did the system not create a purchase order when I press Add to order items?
A purchase order is only created when you select a single supplier form the reorder options.
If the suppliers drop down box is left on All Suppliers
, the reorder table will show order items from different suppliers that cannot be added to a single purchase order. Therefore, you will not have the option of creating a purchase order when “All Suppliers” is selected.
If you select All Suppliers
from the reorder options. The selected items will appear in the Create orders list.
I have extra items on my purchase order that I did not select
The software will search through the Create orders list. If there are items waiting to be ordered they will be added to the order when creating a purchase order at the end of the reorder process. This ensures that items that were already on order for that supplier, but not yet placed on a purchase order, are not forgotten.
