Procurement Processes:
Zupply offers two procurement methods to streamline purchasing from suppliers:
1. Buy-list
2. Purchase Orders
These two processes provide flexibility in procurement while maintaining a seamless, integrated approach.
Buy-lists capture all ordered items over a selected time period and build a procurement list including in the calculation of Ordered Values, Stock on Hand Values, and Par levels, giving the suggested required amount to purchase from the preferred agents.
Purchase orders can build a purchase order against a specific Agent to secure products directly from them not only related to actual client orders in the system.
