the purchasing process to avoid materials
shortages and ensure the right materials arrive

materials that need to be purchased.

review, edit, and act upon. Purchase Agent will
even generate Purchase Orders with the click of
a button.

Create Your Demand Fence
You tell Purchase Agent how far into the future to review
demand, plus which items, warehouse, customers, etc.
should be analyzed, thereby creating your demand fence.
Account For Vendor Lead Times
Long vendor lead times may require some items outside of
your fence to be considered.
Explodes BOM Components
When used with Sage 100 ERP Bill of Material module, the
Purchase Agent will explode multi level bills.
Works With MRP
When used with the Sage 100 ERP MRP module, items
with manually entered quantity projections from the MRP
module are considered in the quantity calculations.
Interactive Worksheet Grid
Intuitive spreadsheet-style grid speeds navigation and
provides an easy-to-digest graphical interpretation of
demand.
Drill Down For The Details
Pick an item and drill down to see a detailed listing of
its reorder point and demand points. Even select specific
demand points to exclude from consideration.
Dynamic Data Interaction
Direct connection to the database from the work grid allows
the user to select or change vendors and order quantities.
Filter the view for items requiring action or items requiring
no action, and by vendor, planner, product line, sales order,
customer, and more.
You Retain Control
Purchase Agent can be run to calculate requirements for all
inventory items, a range of inventory items, discreet product
lines, discreet warehouses, and parts assigned only to certain
buyers. Any item can be put on hold or removed from the
grid completely. The user can override the cost and quantity-
to-buy for ultimate purchase control.
Flexible Purchase Order Creation
Select individual items or groups of items for order
generation. Purchase Agent then adds these items to
existing purchase orders, or an entirely new order. The item
drops off of the grid to prevent duplication. The entire work
grid can be cleared and quickly regenerated at any time.
