Parts Inventory / Receiving
Explanation
As parts are purchased / received, they should be entered into ExpressMaintenance. This allows the application to properly track the most recent cost of the part and the quantity on hand. ExpressMaintenance is not intended to be a purchasing, invoicing or accounting application. However, the Parts Purchases screen does provide a convenient method of tracking purchases / receipts and updating parts inventory as shown below:
Auto Populating From PO
You can automatically populate a receiving record from a purchase order transaction. Simply click to insert a new receiving record, enter the PO number and click the "Populate From PO" button. The receiving record will be populated with the records from the purchase order and ready for further editing as needed. Clicking the same button at the top, you can close a PO or view the summary of receipts on the PO.
Inserting / Editing
To insert or edit a record, simply click the edit button on the data navigator at the top of the screen.
