How does the purchase suggestion work?

The purchase suggestion is a feature that simplifies your stock control! This feature uses the sales records of the last 60 days, combined with the minimum and maximum stock values configured for each product, thus calculating a suggestion of the restocking quantity needed for each item. This way, you can keep your stock within the configured minimum and maximum limits, making control easier and preventing shortages or excess items.

Let's learn how to generate a purchase suggestion?

1. On the Stock screen, access the Stock by product tab.

2. Click on the arrow icon.

3. Click on Tools and then on Purchase Suggestion.

The system will automatically generate a list with the purchase suggestions. The Suggestions column will show the suggested minimum and maximum quantity to purchase.

4. If you wish to filter the information, showing products from a single supplier, click on by Supplier and then on the arrow to the right of the field to choose the supplier.

5. To export the suggestion information, click on the floppy disk icon in the upper right corner.

6. To print the suggestion information, click on the printer icon in the upper right corner.

Done! Now you have a report with the purchase suggestions for your stock, based on the minimum and maximum stock configurations of your products.
