Once you create a new vendor, you then can establish which of your inventory items will come from this vendor. To do so, click the Vendor tab, locate the desired vendor, and click Vendor Inventory.
1. Complete the following:
- Product # – check the product associated with this vendor
- VenProd# – enter the vendor’s product # (which may be different than your product identification)
- VenDesc – enter vendor’s description.
- Cost – enter the cost of the product per the vendor
- Quantity – enter the quantity normally purchased, in increments of the UnitCov value
- UnitCov – enter the unit conversion from the vendor’s quantity to yours. For example, you may sell Zing Energy by the bottle, but you buy it from your vendor in cases. A case holds 20 bottles. Your UnitCov should be 20 (1 case becomes 20 units into your inventory). When you order the item on the PO, quantities are translated as follows:
-
- Order qty 20 = qty 1 of the vendor item
- Order qty 40 = qty 2 of the vendor item
- Order qty 80 = qty 4 of the vendor item
2. Once you have entered all inventory information, click Save to save your data.
