Create Purchase Orders from Work Tickets in Sage 50

Create Purchase Orders from Work Tickets in Sage 50

How do you autofill or auto create Purchase Orders from work tickets in Sage 50? 

Sage 50 allows you to set up Inventory Item Defaults to auto create purchase orders in Sage 50 behind the scenes. The Ordering tab of this window has options that let you enable the auto-creation of POs for:

  1. drop-ship transactions
  2. non-drop-ship transactions
  3. work tickets

Important:For auto-creation of purchase orders to work, your company must be using the real-time posting method.

You can treat each auto-created purchase order just as you would a manually created one. You can edit the purchase order, print it, or e-mail it to a vendor in the Purchase Orders window.

Note: Even if your company is set up for auto-creation of purchase orders, Sage 50 will not automatically create POs for recurring customer invoices. Instead, you will have to manually generate POs for any inventory that you need to reorder as a result of recurring invoices.

To auto create purchase orders from work tickets in Sage 50, the following criteria must be met:

  • Each item must be set up in Maintain Inventory Items with a preferred vendor.
  • The user who is entering the transactions listed below must have access rights to add Purchase Orders.
  • The quantity ordered of one or more of the items must cause the quantity available as of the transaction date to fall below minimum stock levels.

If these conditions are met and your company is set up to auto create purchase orders in Sage 50. Sage 50 will automatically create a purchase order each time a work ticket is saved. In addition, to ensure that auto-creation works most effectively, each item in Maintain Inventory Items should be set up with a minimum stock level and minimum reorder quantity. Sage 50 will auto-create purchase orders from Work Tickets for inventory items that fall into the following item classes only

  • stock
  • substock
  • serialized stock.

How to use SAP Crystal Reports with Sage 50

  1. In Sage 50, select Reports, Crystal Reports from the main menu.
  2. Highlight Vendor Detail List and click the Preview button or double-click Vendor Detail List.

Crystal Reports

Yes, Crystal Reports is one way to extract data from Sage 50 and we can train you on the process. You would not need to have the product prior to the  training. However, we have found that on-line training without the ability to immediately practice what has been demonstrated has a lower retention rate. You will also need to gain experience by practicing. The final element is to be able to find the appropriate data tables and fields to retrieve the data for use within those reports.

Please note, that although Crystal Reports can still be used with Sage 50, Sage has not included Crystal Reports as part of the Sage 50 product since 2014. A license has to be purchased separately. It is generally not recommended as the external report writer of choice unless reports were created prior it’s being removed from the product. It is most often required when these reports are still needed or new reports are required that cannot be created using the currently support Sage Intelligence external report writer.

Sage 50 Advanced Reports Options

  • Crystal Reports
  • Financial Designer
  • Sage Intelligence

Choose printing preference

The first step is to confirm the types of reports that you are expected to produce. This will confirm that Crystal Reports in the most appropriate choice for those reports. Other reporting options include

  • The built in report designer
  • Financial statement designer
  • Built in forms designer
  • Sage Intelligence

Print a Crystal Report in Sage 50

If Crystal is the most appropriate choice for an external report writer, I would be glad to set up an online training session for you. It is always helpful to know the reports you wish to produce, so I can choose one as example during training to give you experience in determining the tables and fields to create a specific report.

Units of Measure (U/M) in Sage 50

How do you use units of measure in Sage 50? What are units of measure in Sage 50 used for?

The Maintain Units/Measures window allows you to set up new units/measures (U/M), other than the Stocking U/M, for purchasing or selling inventory items. In this window, you can set up new units/measures, change the ID for, and delete existing units/measures.

Note: You can access this window only if you have selected the option to Enable Multi-Packs and buying and selling items in different units/measures in the Inventory Item Defaults window.

If you purchase or sell items in bulk or in multi-pack units, create new units/measures to accommodate bulk sales or purchases. This saves you time because you won’t have to enter a new item for each unit/measure of an item that you buy or sell. By creating a new unit/measure based on the stocking unit, you can purchase and sell the multi-pack unit and the single units contained in the multi-pack.

You can set up as many units/measures as you need, but you can only assign two U/Ms to an inventory item: one for sales and one for purchases.
