If your shop protocol is not to start a job until all materials are in your shop, then use the Materials List to quickly see which components have arrived.
Track materials for specific Work Orders to know when all materials have arrived and work on the order can begin.
This production tool creates a list of all the framing materials required for the current Work Order and may be viewed or printed.
The Material List works in conjunction with Purchase Orders: When the same items on a Purchase Order are ‘received’ (by clicking on the Accept or Accept All buttons on the Purchase Order screen), then those items on the Material List are automatically shown as received and display the initials of the receiver.
Note, from a Material List, that marking an item as received or entering initials will not update the Purchase Order.
Materials list items are for one Work Order at a time.
Initials of the employee receiving must be entered before receiving any listed item.
Received items can be checked and initialed by employees, or printed and to attached to the artwork in the back room. Note that these actions are separate from Purchase Order actions.
