If you are trying to automate your purchase ordering system and you
use the warehousing feature this application can save you a huge amount
of time. The Roundtable Software Advantage Accounting System includes minimum
quantity fields for each item and warehouse. This field can be used to
print reports and generate POs based not just on overall quantity on hand,
but the quantities on hand at each of your locations.
The only problem with this system is that there is no way to automatically
set the warehouse minimums. While the software offers great tools to automatically
determine what your overall stocking quantities should be, there are no
tools for working with warehouses.
The Warehouse Minimum Calculator automatically determines the proper
minimum quantities for each warehouse based on historical sales data. The
raw data used to calculate minimums is pulled from your Inventory audit
trail—once sales are determined, you can have the Warehouse Minimum Calculator
fine–tune minimums based on your ordering frequency.
