Sophisticated and Comprehensive

A PRONTO-Xi Inventory Master Record maintains all the information and transaction history of an item. To create or maintain an item, you can use the main inventory maintenance screen or industry specific screens. Chemical, paper, retail, wholesale distribution, timber and mining are some of the industries with specialised maintenance screens.

In addition, Inventory Management supports different types of items:

Stocked or Standard – This is a normal, saleable item. It is typically purchased, but can also be manufactured;

Kit – This is a combination of normal items that together make up a single SKU for sale to customers;

Raw Materials – These items are not saleable and they do not have a Bill of Material (BOM). They can be transferred using a transfer sales order;

Manufactured – These items are manufactured. They typically have components, a Bill of Material (BOM) and routings and are generally managed via PRONTO-Xi Manufacturing operations;

Labour – These items cannot have a warehouse record as they are used to cost the labour in BOM or Kits as component items;

Indent – These items are not held in stock, but are ordered from your suppliers on demand as your customers purchase them;

Specials – Typically, these items are not controlled as stock. A supplier record is required, but there is no warehouse record because they are typically used for expense items such as consumables, electricity, water, etc.

Inventory Master Records can also include additional information or notes such as hazardous or dangerous goods documentation. Finally, Inventory Master Records contain comprehensive traceability details for food companies supplying into the United States of America who need to meet Public Health and Bioterrorism Preparedness Act of 2002 (Bioterrorism Act) requirements.
