Purchase Order Management
[This is an Optional Component of Galvin].
This component of Galvin manages all aspects of Purchase Order creation and maintenance.
Purchase Orders can be created directly from the Item Forecasting screens with the results of any simulations inserted into the Purchase Order.
Existing Purchase Orders can be accessed instantly [for anywhere in the system] to be either reviewed, modified or cancelled.
Audit trails are kept of all activity occurring at the order line level providing a detailed chronology of everything that has happened to that line, such as: every receipt, cost change, delivery date change, over/under shipments, vendor payment, etc.
Some of the other features in this module include:
The ability to Print/Fax/Email/EDI Purchase Orders and all other supporting documents to the supplier.
The ability to manage Backup and Unconfirmed Purchase Orders and process acknowledgements as well.
Up to three levels of approval can be invoked with unique criteria on a user by user basis. All approvals happen real-time, meaning a Purchase Order can be created, approved, transmitted to the supplier and acknowledged in minutes.
The module has real-time interfaces to your receiving system and your Order Management Systems.
This is a paperless system meaning that no copies of Purchase Orders are retained in-house. Powerful search capabilities allow you to find a Purchase Order based on a number of criteria, and in seconds.
