AccountMate - Inventory Specification Module
If you need quick, easy and accurate management of your inventory, AccountMate’s Inventory Specification module is an excellent resource. This module allows you to create categories for inventory items such as size, color, style and texture, and then be able to track and price them by the assigned categories. This provides the ability to quickly suggest a similar item when the desired specification is not available, thereby keeping sales strong.
Standard item specifications can be applied to any inventory item.
The Inventory Specification module integrates with the Inventory Control, Sales Order, Accounts Receivable, Purchase Order, Upsell Management and Pricing Control modules.
Inventory Specification Maintenance
Establish a Multi-tiered Inventory Structure with Easy-to-use Menu Options
Assign multiple categories of inventory items to each item record so you do not have to create a separate inventory item for every specification combination.
Activate Item Specification for Inventory Types
You can predefine which inventory types will use Item Specification. Inventory items that are assigned a particular inventory type will have item specification activated upon creation of the item record.
Maintain Unlimited Specification Codes
Create as many specification codes as you need for each specification type. For example, if you have the specification type “color,” you can create codes for as many different colors as you might have stocked in inventory. If there are twenty different colors that apply across a broad range of items, you save valuable time that would otherwise have been spent setting up a separate inventory record for each color version of each inventory item. Update the specification codes without changing the inventory item itself.
Assign Specification Easily
After you have created an inventory item and are ready to assign specification codes, simply select from previously created specification codes.
Define Warehouse Reorder Points and Quantities at the Specification Level
Warehouse reorder points and quantities can be set up for each specification code combination assigned to an item. The reorder point levels and quantities you set up will help determine what goods will be ordered when using the Create Purchase Order by Reorder Quantity function in the Purchase Order module. Use this feature to designate separate reorder information for faster moving item specifications.
Integration with Inventory Control, Sales Order, Accounts Receivable, Purchase Order, Upsell Management and Pricing Control Modules
• Integration with Inventory Control results in enhanced capabilities in the Inventory Adjustment, Warehouse and Bin Transfers, Internal Stock Issuance and Physical Count functions that allow you to process inventory transactions up to the item specification level.
• Integration with Sales Order, Accounts Receivable and/or Purchase Order modules enhances the basic functionalities of each of these modules to support the posting of orders and/or invoices up to the specification level.
• Integration with the Upsell Management module provides the ability to set up a separate list of accessory or upsell items for each specification code combination and to designate a particular specification code for a qualified upsell item.
• Integration with the Pricing Control module provides the ability to define basic and multi-level pricing for each specification code combination through Inventory Basic Price Maintenance.
Other Features
• A Specification Type and Code Listing that displays each specification type created along with its specification codes and descriptions
• An Inventory Specification List that displays each inventory item and the assigned specification type and code
