Overview
Our group buy purchase order feature is designed to streamline your inventory management process, and allows you to effortlessly manage purchases for multiple locations in one go. This feature can be leveraged during the Planning process, when using the PO Builder from the Purchase Targets tab.
Leveraging Group Buys
Review Purchase Targets
In the Purchase Targets section, you'll see each of the purchase orders you can work on, with each PO associated with one purchase location and one supplier.
Select all of the POs you want to work on, and click on PO Builder to initiate the building process.
Customize Purchasing Locations
After determining quantity to order by line, once you navigate to the Purchase & Transfer Orders section (Step 2 in the PO Builder) you will see a “Group Buy” toggle that allows you to group locations for a supplier.
Toggling the Group Buy option on will allow you to combine purchases from various locations into one purchasing group. You can now set group purchasing locations, with the flexibility to easily set the purchase location to be a different location - all while having clear visibility into all requirement locations.
Simply update the purchasing location to align with your buying plan and the items will allocate to new purchase groups.
Finalize your Purchase Order
In the final step, Recurrency will summarize your changes, displaying the total lines and cost per Purchasing Location, while allowing you to set the due date, carrier, and mark them as approved or unapproved.
