In this blog, we will see how to create a Sales order in Sage 100 ERP (formerly Sage MAS 90/200 ERP) using Special Items as its Line Items.
In Sage 100 ERP, Users can use Special Item Code to those Inventory parts that have been written off or slow-moving but are still sellable. This is done by assigning ‘*’ sign to the Inventory item in the SO or Invoice entry detail Line * (example: #12345).
“Pre-requisites for Installing GUMU™ Sage 100 integration with Sage CRM”
In the below example, we have explained the process in detail;
- We will create a Sales Order against the Customer “Abercrombie, Kristy”
- Here, we are selling an Item “Brass Hinges” to this Customer.
- Inventory activity for this particular Item has been slow moving with only sales of 5 units in the previous Fiscal year. Therefore, we would be selling it as a Special Item to this Customer.
- In the above Screenshot, we have prefixed an asterisk sign before the Item Code as highlighted in the detail Line.
As we have entered Line item as Special Item, it takes the codes for Sales Account and Cost Account as it has been set at Special Item sales and Special Item COGS Accounts in Sales order >>Sales Order options >> Menu screen.
The main purpose of using special Items in Sales order is to highlight those items from stock which are moving quite slowly and lagging behind in sales as compared to other inventory Items. However, Account manager can track the invested cost and sales of special items differently than normal inventory items.
