Small Business POS

Great new upgrades from LivePOS! The Inventory Dashboard has been revamped with two new features! The Transfer Inventory feature has been replaced by Move Inventory. You can now choose up to 10 locations and 200 items per transaction, instead of only 50 from the old feature. Also, the Reserve feature has been added, where you can set aside items for later shipment. Once a set of items are reserved, no other order request can be made for it because future order requests will be deducted accordingly from the specific location specified when the items were reserved. Aside from the Reserve feature, a Save as Draft feature has been added to let you create and save a temporary draft of a purchase order for later use. This is a very convenient feature especially if you or your managers have to create the same purchase orders frequently. The Purchase Order Dashboard has also been improved. Aside from a better user interface, a Reserved tab displays all currently Reserved Orders. With this come the abilities to cancel Reserved Purchase Orders and cancel Purchase Order Drafts. The good news hasn't run out yet! There are new fields in the Inventory Reporting pages. Units in Transit shows how many among the items in a particular location are currently being shipped. Units Reserved displays how many of the items are reserved, and Units Available shows how many of the items are available for shipping. Here are the other new pages in Inventory Reporting: Daily Inventory Count Report, Update Location Inventory, Ass Location/Warehouse Inventory, and the Live Inventory Report. Accordingly, LivePOS has updated other general features to support the new Inventory features: The Request Purchase Order feature now shows only the fields that are “available” currently in the warehouse. Available = Total Units – Units Reserved – Units In Transit. Receiving Purchase Order correctly deducts the shipped items accordingly from the Reserved or Available items. Reserved Orders made in a certain location will deduct from the Available items of that same location. Sounds like a mouthful of new good things that just came from LivePOS! Watch out for more useful features to be added in the coming weeks. Don't forget that you can have your say in adding features by using the Feature Request capability in your dashboard.
