Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 Inventory Management Brochure

 

Multiple Warehousing	A separate inventory of each inventory item can be maintained at any number of locations. In addition, items can be transferred between warehouse locations.
Physical Count	Inventory can be physically counted without interrupting the normal Sales Order Entry process. Physical Count Worksheets simplify the physical count process and speed data entry. A variance report provides data that highlights the difference between current physical count and the count shown in the system.
Alias Item Numbers	Alias items provide the ability to assign alias item numbers to each customer and vendor. Alias items permit the user to type alias item numbers in the Purchase Order and Sales Order modules, allowing the system to find regular item records and stock status. All alias item numbers print on invoices and purchase orders.
Sales Kit Processing	Groups of items priced and sold together can be defined as sales kits. A single-level bill of components can be defined for each kit. The Sales Kit Listing, Sales Kit Where-Used Listing, and Costed Sales Kit Report are available. Sales kits can be entered during order entry to automatically explode the components.
Comprehensive Pricing and Costing Methods	Detailed price schedules based upon customer price levels and the quantity sold can be created for each item. Prices can be calculated as a discount of the standard price or markup of the standard cost, and can be calculated based on standard cost, average cost, LIFO, FIFO, and lot/serial methods. Sales promotions and customer contract pricing may also be established. Standard, last, and average costs are maintained for each item regardless of costing method.
Transaction History	A detailed history of all inventory transactions can be retained indefinitely, and a transaction audit trail can be produced for a specified date range.
Bar Code Printing	Inventory labels with bar codes can be printed for inventory items. Both Code 39 and Code 128 bar code formats are supported for a variety of printers.
Reordering	The Reorder Report lists items of stock on hand that has reached a specified reorder point (which is unique to each item at each location). The suggested reorder quantity can be based upon an economic order quantity, maximum stock quantity, or reorder point.
Commission Method	Commission on each item can be calculated using different methods. Commissions can be based upon percentage of price, percentage of cost, or percentage of gross profit plus a base commission amount.
Item Delete/ Renumber/Merge	This program allows you to delete, renumber, or merge existing item numbers using wildcard characters to mask selected groups of item numbers. All changes are recorded in a Delete/Renumber/Merge log. There is an Item Masterfile Audit Report that allows you to review any changes, deletions, or additions.
Drill-Down From Item Inquiry	When viewing an inventory item in sales history, you can see all the invoices that contain the items sold to a particular customer. The list shows the invoice number with the invoice date that contains the items purchased. From the list of invoices, you can select an invoice and drill down to the invoice line item to see the details of the quantity and price of the item that was sold.
Unlimited Vendors Per Item	The lookup displays the last purchase price of an item, the lead time (based on the date of the last purchase order compared with the date of the last receipt), and available quantity price discounts. You can even sort vendors by last cost and by lead time.
Warranty Tracking	The warranty expiration date for items, optionally calculated on shipment or invoice date, prints on invoices and packing slips for your customers. Warranty history is maintained and automatically recalled when items are returned using the integrated Return Merchandise Authorization module.
Lot/Serial Tracking	Items may be tracked by lot or serial number. This helps improve quality while providing an audit trail to the source purchase order or work order.
