Auto-generated purchase requisitions

Let E21 ERP purchase order management software do the heavy lifting

As a first step in the procure-to-pay process, thanks to E21’s integrated ERP material requirements planning (MRP) and distribution requirements planning (DRP) tools, purchase requisitions are automatically generated for online review and ultimate conversion to purchase orders. Designed to handle both centralized and decentralized purchasing environments, E21 ERP purchase order management software supports single and multi-company as well as single and multi-warehouse environments.

Among the data analyzed by the system when generating suggested purchases are the following:

Using requisitions throughout the enterprise

E21 purchase order management software enables manufacturers and distributors to leverage the requisition system for far more than raw material or finished good purchases. Every department can create a series of purchase requisitions for materials and supplies needed. With E21’s preventative maintenance management solution, purchase requisitions can even be generated automatically for machine parts and supplies.

E21’s built-in purchase order management software was designed with enterprise-wide integration in mind. From managing blanket purchase orders and supplier contracts to creating drop-ship purchase orders directly linked to customer sales orders, E21 provides the backend support for real-world transactions manufacturers and distributors engage in daily. Integrated with E21 ERP’s manufacturing software functionality, purchase orders can be generated for outsourced assembly and processing operations, accounting for material cost changes and inventory consumption at each step of the process. And with integrated import management, multiple purchase orders can be consolidated into a single container for streamlined maintenance of expected delivery dates and material tracking.

Don’t settle for email. With E21 ERP, manufacturers and distributors can leverage modern technology to communicate with suppliers. Organizations can take advantage of E21’s built-in EDI software and available EDI VAN services. When suppliers do not have the ability to communicate via EDI, organizations can turn to E21 Connect, E21’s integrated ERP vendor portal allowing for streamlined electronic data exchange for purchase orders, shipments, and supplier invoices.
