Authorise

A new feature to allow control over the amount an employee can order was implemented in Q3, 2021.

If you enter a purchase orders order and your limit is below the amount of the order it will require authorising by a user who has a higher limit and one which is above the value of the order.

...

The Authorise Purchase screen will show the Purchase orders that have been keyed by users that have a Purchase Limit against their user.

...

This These controls to allow the authorisations of purchases have been added, this is controlled by a new field against the system users which defines up to what limit the user is allowed to order. A purchase will be held if it exceeds this value, waiting for a user with a sufficient limit to allow it in the new authorisation screen.

• You can enter any number of received units against the line (including more than was Ordered if you need to) and save the PO.

• The remaining unreceipted unit or singles will be placed on a new outstanding line on the Purchase Order. Receipt the outstanding stock against the new line when it arrives (or remove the new line if you are not expecting any more stock).

title P.O.P VAT Analysis
POP VAT Analysis This screen is used to record the information displayed on the supplier invoice received: Enter their invoice number in the ‘Invoice Number’ field along with the invoice date in the ‘Transaction Date’ field. All other information should already be accurate from the information already entered against the purchase order, if it’s not and no special circumstances apply then consider cancelling out of the PO invoice entry using the ‘Close’ button and modifying the Purchase Order before continuing. The information in ‘Invoice Details’ and below can be edited, however, for example, if the Supplier has provided a discount. If you choose to do this the stock will continue to be received into the system with the original value entered and not the value entered here. Click the Process button to complete the process, the system will check that the values in the bottom half of the screen are equal to the totals entered in ‘Invoice Details’ and if they do not you’ll see this message: Otherwise, if Vision Commerce is integrated with a finance system the purchase invoice will be sent to the purchase ledger in that system and the Purchase Order will be marked as ‘Invoiced’.
