Input Purchase Orders > Supplier Invoices
Currently POs feature is quite vague. There is very limited information that can be added. I am suggesting that:
- POs can be used to log a current purchase order (and this would include individual items that were ordered and their cost).
- There's often delivery charges attached to a PO. This needs to be added.
- POs would be linked with both parts and inventory, giving us the users the ability to decide if items in a PO should go to parts or inventory. Repairers who don't have a shop most often do not need a big inventory, but order specific parts for specific tickets as needed.
- A PO should be able to be closed when invoiced by the supplier and paid. So we have a transition from a PO > Invoice > Paid Invoice. This allows for better reporting.
With this, we don't have to refer to printed out invoices or delivery notes to track past suppliers, or third party tools, or the supplier's tool. It's all interconnected within RepairShopr. POs to Supplier to Supplier Invoice to Tickets to Inventory to Parts.

I cant say I fully understand your suggestion, but I do whole heartedly agree with improving the connection between POs and Tickets. Dan, Could you ellaborate on the Parts vs inventory situ? our company requires a PO for every thing we order, so I have completely ignored the parts module at this point. Which makes it a real Pain managing inventory as EVERYTHING goes into inventory. Is there a better way to do this?

Great idea, we undertake work for Samsung in-warranty repairs and all DO numbers must be added to the claim. Just need to work on the Engineer appointment and routing
