OTIF Performance % : Calculates the On Time In Full performance by the supplier for deliveries of the selected item. The value gives the percentage of orders over the past 2 years which have been fully received within the Requested delivery date on the Purchase Order line.
Supplier Price Breaks
Add / Edit Supplier
Quantity price breaks: When setting up stock item suppliers, there is now the option to enter quantity price breaks. This feature allows you to define different price tiers or discounts based on the quantity of items being purchased from a specific supplier.
Default pricing for purchase orders: The quantity price breaks entered for each stock item supplier will be used as default pricing when raising purchase orders. This applies to both manual purchase order creation and when generating purchase orders from the Cim200 Material Requirements Planning (MRP) recommendations. The system will automatically apply the appropriate price based on the quantity being ordered, using the defined price breaks for the supplier.
By incorporating quantity price breaks in the stock item supplier setup, the system streamlines the purchase order creation process by automatically applying the correct pricing based on the ordered quantity. This feature helps optimize purchasing decisions, ensures accurate cost calculations, and potentially enables cost savings by taking advantage of volume-based pricing discounts offered by suppliers.
