Overview

Excerpt

The system allows users with the Vendor Availability option active, to manually allocate product from purchase orders using the vendor availability.

 

This option is for those companies that manage different processes and information when allocating product to purchase orders with the vendor availability.

Info
titlePlease take into account:

The manual allocation process works both for product lines in units and boxes. In the case of units, the system will search for products in units with of the same unit type. In the case of solid boxes, the system will search for boxes with the same box type, unit type, and product pack. For mixed boxes, the system will search for products in units.

This function will be available for those users that have access to the grower portal and have the Vendor Availability active. For grower users, the farm should have the Vendor Availability setting active in order to use this option.
