Job Ops standalone Purchase Agent module for MAS90 and MAS200 v4.30 [Sneak Peek]

Here is a sneak peek overview of Purchase Agent by JobOps which has just been released as a standalone component of the popular Job Ops manufacturing suite for MAS 90 and MAS 200:

Purchase Agent automates the purchasing process by analyzing your supply and demand for inventory. Based on this information it creates a filterable grid to allow the purchase agent order review the demand, modify the information and automatically create purchase orders from it.

In the past, this program was called “Component Exception Manager” and was a major part of the ordering process for Job Ops program.

But now Job Ops has pulled  this functionality out of JobOps and reengineered it to work without JobOps in base MAS90.

Here are some screen shots.

Main Purchase Agent Generation Screen.

With this information it creates a work file of on all the inventory demand based on Sales Order and MRP forecasts, EOQ or by max stock.

And allow you to filter by any of the following items

This is by Vendor

It also will allow you to scroll to additional info

It also allow you to drill down on the item inquiry screen or see the demand generated for the item.

It will also allow you to review purchase history by item

Once you decide you can actually change the Vendor, price or quantity right on the screen

Once you decide to order it will create the Purchase orders

You can either a New PO, add to a PO that has not been printed or create an on hold PO

Once the PO is generated the demand is removed from the grid.

Normally the Job Ops Program costs between 5K to 20K based on modules and users.

This Program is available standalone without JobOps and retails for about $1500. The demo does a pretty good job of reviewing the product. Let me know if you are interested in seeing it.
