Each BOM may contain several components that come from different vendors. Traditionally, users need to expand the BOM manually, identify each vendor, and then create multiple purchase orders. This process takes a lot of time and often leads to mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To simplify this, we developed a custom screen in Sage 300 that automates the entire process. With this tool, purchase orders for BOM items are created directly from Order Entry, split automatically by vendor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How it works:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The system checks whether the sales order item has a BOM number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If yes, it expands the BOM into its individual components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each component is matched with its preferred vendor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The system then generates the required purchase order or orders, depending on how many vendors are involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key Features and Benefits:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Automatic BOM expansion \u2013 Components are identified without manual effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vendor-wise PO creation \u2013 Purchase orders are created for the correct vendors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Single or multiple POs \u2013 One PO if all components belong to the same vendor, multiple POs if they don\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Error handling \u2013 A log file is generated if any issue occurs during PO creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time savings \u2013 Reduces manual work for the purchasing team and minimizes errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suppose a BOM item has two components: one linked to Vendor X and another to Vendor Y. The system will automatically create one PO for Vendor X and another for Vendor Y\u2014saving time and ensuring accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, this customization helps businesses align purchasing with sales orders, reduce manual effort, and bring greater efficiency to procurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: Medium;\"><strong>About Us<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greytrix.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Greytrix<\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; a globally recognized and one of the oldest Sage Development Partners is a one-stop solution provider for Sage ERP and Sage CRM organizational needs.
