Key Features and Benefits:

• Straightforward supply chain management
  Sage MMS allows you to easily manage all your purchaseorders, quickly finding individual orders and drilling down toview the details.

• Integrates fully with other Sage MMS modules
  By working with the Stock Module and Sales Ledger, the Purchase Order Processing module ensures that once goods are received they are available to your customers. As soon as the invoice is matched with goods received, all relevant information is updated automatically throughout the system, including stock pricing, supplier balances, VAT return and management reports. Full links to the Sales Order Processing module allow you to see which customer orders are linked to a particular purchase order.

• Manual or semi-automatic Purchase Order Processing
  You can create Purchase Orders manually if you wish; alternatively, the system can compile lists of what you should order based on shortfall (by warehouse, if necessary) and what's required for back-to-back orders. You can then choose who to buy from and what to pay. Sage MMS will then create a set of reports to base your negotiations on; once you're satisfied that you've got the best deal it will create and collate a series of Purchase Orders for you.

• Full matching of POs to invoices and deliveries
  2-way or 3-way GRN matching is supported, and Sage MMS calculates a running total when matching invoice line items to orders - making it easier to spot errors as you go.

• Disputed invoices
  Sage MMS allows you to record the invoice but flag it up as disputed. It won't go through to the Purchase Ledger until the dispute has been resolved - either by accepting it 'as is' or matching it to further deliveries or a credit note. You can also generate reports on disputed items.

• Full Back to Back ordering
  Sage MMS has a full link between Sales and Purchase Order modules so you can see the effect of the non-availability of a product on a particular sales order, or the effect on a PO of the cancellation of a sales order line.
