It provides for multiple warehouse locations and can function in a multi-company environment. All inventory items can be easily accessed by keying in a partial description of the item, the item number or a user defined keyword for the item. Item pricing may be by quantity break, product class or a pre-negotiated Customer Contract price.
Main Package Features:

In those cases where multiple items may share the same partial description or keyword, a qualifier may also be keyed in for a more specific selection.
