When Purchase Order inventory drops to a specific quantity you can configure the system to send out an alert to a designated employee or group of employees. This section describes how to define a notification threshold and set up the notification.
To define the threshold at which a material needs reordered:
- Click Admin > Accounting > Materials.
- Use the SEARCH and/or column filters to locate the material you want to track inventory for. Note: If the material does not exist, refer to the section called Creating a New Material.
- Click the material NAME.
- Click Track Inventory field.
- Enter the current total material inventory in the INVENTORY QTY field.
- Enter the reorder threshold in the REORDER AT QTY field.
- Click the Edit Group to the right of the Track Inventory check box to add or remove employees from receiving notifications about a material that needs to be reordered.
- Clicking the + sign next to employees listed on the left will add them to the notification group.
- Clicking the x next to employees listed on the right will remove them from the notification group.
