AMSHub now provides the ability for users to tag an order that’s being input to support a bulk purchase opportunity with Vendors. In this scenario, a vendor generally offers a one-time price discount in exchange for a larger purchase of one or more items. Since the price being paid for the item typically deviates from your standard contract price, AMSHub now provides the ability to tag a bulk order being entered and provide the one-off item prices. Items received from this bulk order will then maintain the lower price throughout their life cycle to ensure case pricing is accurate when these items are used and in all other calculations on the site such as Inventory Value reports.
To use bulk purchase, expand the Order Options panel on the final step of order creation and select the Bulk Order option. Enter the Bulk Price in the order detail area and Submit the order. Please note that the bulk purchase option is by Vendor, so only include items from this vendor in the order that are part of your bulk purchase. As a general rule, we recommend you create one order specifically for a bulk purchase agreement with only the item(s) included in the bulk purchase.
