Purchase orders can either be raised manually (e.g. for frame stock and miscellaneous sales items) or generated automatically (for spectacles, replacement frames, contact lenses and repairs.)
	All spectacle purchase orders clearly identify the patient for whom the items were purchased.
	Spectacle purchase orders are automatically updated when finished jobs received.
	Automatic entry of goods received against purchase orders – updates stock levels instantly.
	Manual entry of stock receipts – allows entry of different quantities from those ordered.
	Purchase invoice reconciliation – allows instant comparison between goods ordered, goods received and goods invoiced, ensuring that the practice only pays for what has been ordered, and at the agreed price.
	Purchase invoice entry allows entry of additional items e.g. P & P, Insurance, and also addition of VAT.
	Notes can be held against invoices under dispute.
	Confirmed invoices can be batched and input directly or downloaded to a purchase ledger, eliminating re-keying and transcription errors.
