Entering orders into your ERP software system is many different things for different companies. An order may be a sales order from your customer. The sales order could be a repeat order or it could be from a quote that you provided to the customer. It may be an order for a stock item or it may be a make-to-order item or service. You may also need to enter a work order that describes how to build the product or perform the service from the sales order. Finally you may also have work orders that are to fulfill your own stock requirements.

With JobOps and Sage MAS 90 or MAS 200 ERP, entering orders is simplified because the sales order and work order are linked and generated in the same order entry step.
 

Creating a work ticket to fulfill a sales order is also done for you by JobOps. In the example above, if the red wagon was not previously quoted, entering the line item for red wagon in the sales order can automatically create the work ticket to make the wagon by using the template associated with the red wagon.  In other words, by entering “red wagon” as a line in the sales order, you have also created a complete router describing how to build the wagon and a bill of materials listing all of parts and raw materials required for the job.

If work tickets are required to fulfill stock requirements, JobOps will auto-generate the work tickets whenever demand and allocations for the stock item will bring inventories down to your minimum stock level.
