Purchasing and Inventory Settings (Desktop)

When you configure Purchasing and Inventory, you establish purchasing and inventory items, item categories, inventory locations, units of measure, shipping addresses, bill-to codes, and the buyers and approvers, all at a system level for your firm.

If you have multiple companies, you also specify the purchasing and inventory settings for your company and each company that you have in Vantagepoint.

Purchasing & Inventory displays in the Vantagepoint Settings menu after you activate the Purchasing application or Asset Management application on the Modules tab in Settings > General System in the browser application.

If you have the Asset Management application activated, but not the Purchasing application, you can access only the following menu items from the Purchasing & Inventory menu:

  • System > Items Categories tab
  • Company > Items Categories tab
  • Items Master > General tab

On these tabs, you establish the item categories and purchasing items that will be used to create equipment items in the Equipment hub, which is the foundation for the Asset Management application.
