Purchase Advice

Overview

The Purchase Advice Report looks at inventory levels to determine what quantities need to be ordered, of a specific inventory item based on the quantity on hand, on order, allocated and available. It then will determine the quantity to order by looking at the minimum, maximum and recommended order quantity for the item, which is set up in the Inventory Entry screen. This report is paper version of the PO generator and really should not be used once the PO generator operational.
