Purchase Management

OpenERP enables you to organize your company’s purchases by enabling you to manage the entire process right from creating request for quotations to accepting delivery of goods and payment.

Request for Quotation

Request for Quotation (RFQ) is the primary process in Purchase Management. OpenERP Purchase module allows you to request a quote from the supplier for the list of products that need to be purchased. Upon receipt of the best quote from the supplier, the manager can approve the RFQ using the module and generate a purchase order. While some RFQ are created manually, some of them are generated automatically due to events such as computation of minimum stock rules.

Purchase Order

An approved RFQ is a Purchase Order. The module equips users with the power to confirm Purchase Order and raise a pro-forma supplier invoice to be paid. All Purchase Orders can be viewed according to the state they are currently in.

Supplier Contacts

Contact information of all suppliers including the address, price lists, concerned authority and other details is maintained in centralised address book. At any point of time, users can view all the transaction carried out with a supplier using the history tab.

Invoicing

Generate supplier invoices automatically on purchase and send them for approval to the finance department.
