If you need easy, quick and
accurate management of your
goods for sale, AccountMate's
6.5 Inventory Specification
module is an excellent tool to
have on hand. This module
allows you to create categories
for inventory items, such as size,
color, weight and texture, and
then to track and price them by
each category created. This provides
you with the ability to
quickly suggest a similar item
when the desired specification is
not available, thereby keeping
sales strong. Standard item
specifications can be applied to
any inventory item. Inventory
Specification integrates with
Inventory Control, Sales Order,
Accounts Receivable and
Purchase Order modules. |

Inventory Specification Module
Establish a Multi-tiered Inventory Structure
with Easy-to-use Menu Options
You can now create multiple categories
of inventory items in one single inventory item record so you do not
have to create an item in Inventory Maintenance for every specification
type and code.
Inventory Types and Item Specification
You can pre-select which inventory item types will use Item Specification.
The selected inventory items that are assigned a particular inventory
type will have item specification activated upon creation of the item
record.
Define Warehouse Reorder Points and
Quantities for Specification Items
Warehouse reorder points and quantities can be set up for each specification
code combination assigned to an item. You can add or change the reorder
point level and quantity for each item specification code, if necessary.
The reorder point levels and quantities you set up will help determine
what goods will be ordered when using the Create Purchase Order by
Reorder Quantity function in the Purchase Order module.
Assign Specification Easily
After you have created an inventory item and you are ready to assign
specification codes, you simply click the Setup Spec. button in Inventory
Maintenance. You then select from the previously created specification
codes in the system the combination that you want to assign to the
inventory item you're currently working with.
Create Unlimited Specification Codes
You can create as many specification codes as you need for each specification
type. For example, if you have a specification type designated as
"color," you can create codes for as many different colors as you
might have stocked in inventory. If you have twenty different colors,
you save valuable time that would otherwise have been spent setting
up a separate inventory record for each color version of the inventory
item. You can also make changes to the specification codes as needed
without making changes to the inventory item itself.
Inventory Item Specification Reporting
Features
You can run several reports that will give you valuable information
regarding the specification types and codes you create:
• The Specification Type and Code List displays each Specification
Type created along with its Specification Codes and descriptions.
• The Inventory Specification List displays each inventory item and
its associated Specification Type and Code.
Integration
with Inventory Control, Sales Order, Accounts Receivable, Purchase
Order and Price Control Modules
Integration with Inventory Control results in enhanced capabilities
in the Inventory Adjustment, Warehouse and Bin Transfer and Physical
Count functions that allow you to transact with inventory down to
the item specification level. Integration with Sales Order, Accounts
Receivable and/or Purchase Order enhances the basic functionalities
of each of these modules to support the posting of orders and/or invoices
up to the specification level. Integration with Price Control provides
the ability to create multi-level pricing for each specification code
combination through Inventory Basic Price Maintenance.
