Suppliers & purchases
The vendors you buy from and every purchase you record — quick stock-ins, purchase orders with landed cost, receiving, and vendor credits.
- TUTORIAL: Introduction to purchases
About 15 minutes: record a restock you already have as a quick purchase, then build a purchase order with shipping and tax, mark it ordered and receive it.
- Add a supplier
Create a supplier once, then pick it on your materials, quick purchases, purchase orders and vendor credits. Only the name is required.
- About purchases
How purchases feed your stock and true cost: a quick purchase on a material versus a full purchase order, and why nothing changes until you receive.
- Record a quick purchase on a material
Log a restock of one material you already have in hand: Trackost adds it to stock and recomputes the unit cost, except on a tool, where only the count goes up.
- Create a purchase order
Build a purchase with several lines, shipping, tax and a discount, preview the landed cost of each line, save it as a draft, then mark it ordered.
- Receive items into stock
Book a delivery against an ordered purchase, in full or in part, and see each line's landed cost and new unit cost, or overhead on a tool, before you confirm.
