Order Entry Module for Supply Chain Software
The Order Entry module is designed with high volumes and fast processing in mind; fill and ship orders according to inventory availability with OpenPro ERP software. The Order Entry module performs an extremely valuable function in OpenPro’s Supply Chain software by providing a direct link with the Accounts Receivable and Inventory modules. On-line query of any account or data item field can be made to obtain information on the status of an order and whether a shipment is on hand, back ordered, or committed.
Order Entry Form:Orders are entered on an order form. The form includes customer information, product specifications, shipping information and billing terms. An unlimited number of detail lines (items ordered) are available on each order. Order Entry works with the Accounts Receivable system by collecting all the information necessary for the creation of an invoice.
Order Status: An order may be opened at one time and completed later. Income and sales are realized only after the order has been shipped and billed. If there is a shortage of inventory, a partial shipment can be made to complete as much of the order as possible. Orders can be filled either manually or by computer. Order Entry prints the packing slip for shipment.
Reports: There are a variety of reports available in the Order Entry module that allow sales evaluations to be made quickly and easily. Reports can be printed listing all orders shipped with a comparison of requested and actual ship dates, salesperson commissions, gross margin by item, and back orders by product.
The OpenPro Order Entry module shares the customer file with Accounts Receivable and the inventory item file with the Inventory Control module. All of the customer information in Accounts Receivable and the product information in Inventory can be viewed without leaving the Order Entry module.
