Supplier Contracts

Supplier Contracts screen allows you to setup Supplier Purchasing Contracts in Ostendo allowing for special pricing for specific items / descriptors based on either an open or fixed period of time. A purchase order line can be linked to a specific contract for that Supplier / Code combination.

 

When the user enters a PO Line, Ostendo will check to see if there are any contracts in force for this supplier / item or descriptor combination and advise the user by way of an indicator message

 

If the user then selects the contract and links it to this line, that contracts pricing will override the existing default price. Further to this the Ext Nett Value will update the Contract Value to Date on the Contract. This will enable monitoring progress of this contract.

 

There is also a Tolerance % on the Contract which allows a threshold all linked PO’s may exceed the Contract Value in total.

Eg: Contact Value = $200 and Tolerance = 10%, therefore Ostendo will allow the Contract value to date to get to $210 before preventing further lines being linked to that contract.
