E-MAX RM6 includes a powerful purchasing system. This allows users to raise and progress purchase orders in a modern efficient fashion. Requisitions can be raised by the system automatically once works orders have been released.

Purchase enquiries can also be raised to elicit prices from suppliers or perhaps to trace scarce or difficult to find material. As in other areas, the package will give users the means to become as efficient as possible and at the same time potentially shave a little off the cost of raw material.

At the flick of a button one can identify:

• late items
• key items to be delivered next week
• supplier performance
• purchase commitments
• purchase accruals

INVENTORY

E-MAX RM6 incorporates a full and comprehensive stock control system. While most precision engineers and fabricators do not tend to hold stock, good inventory control is a necessity for many other manufacturing companies in the current business environment which puts so much emphasis on minimising inventory and wip.

For companies in aerospace, oil or defence stock traceability and the ability to store and print scanned images of material or test certificates is a powerful feature.

Where stock control is essential, for example, where companies make their own products, the inventory module has a range of options to satisfy the most sophisticated environment.

• purchase requisitions automatically generated when an item falls below re-order level.
• powerful stock usage reports suggesting changes to ROL
• visibility of materials in WIP
