- Sales Order Module
- The Sales Orders module allows users to easily transform quotes into orders, and
quickly print quotes, orders and packing slips. Quotes and orders can easily be
modified by using the Forms Designer within the software. While entering a quote
or order, inventory availability can be displayed for each item. When orders are
partially filled, back-orders are automatically created for the remaining items.
- Purchase Order Module
- The purchase order module includes tools to help users keep the best sellers in
stock and limit the slower moving items. Standard reports help users monitor stock
and order the appropriate quantities for all inventory items. A ‘suggest orders’
function, can look at existing sales orders and/or past sales history, and create
a suggested orders report from which users can immediately edit or place orders
with vendors. Purchase orders can also be generated directly from sales orders.
When users are entering orders for customers, they can easily see which items are
currently on order.
- Ratios Module
- Use the ratios module to pinpoint areas of strength and weakness in your business
so you can increase profits and reverse negative trends. A wide variety of industry
standard ratios are included, and there is no setup necessary as data is based on
categories already set up within CenterPoint. Powerful drill–down capabilities
allow you to see the data behind the indicators, and trend information can be graphed
for any number of years in your database. Analysis has never been so easy!
