Lean Accounting - Kanban Purchase Orders
01/21/14 at 19:57:03
 
We're looking at implementing something whereby a Kanban tag is the PO for the supplier and are interested to hear if anyone has done this or something similar?
 
Our proposal:
 
1. The supplier collects the kanban tag
2. stock is delivered to us
3. on delivery of the stock the Kanban tag would be scanned which would automatically create and receipt a PO (Lynn is this step possible??)
 
as a rule stock would not be allowed to be receipted if there was no Kanban tag.
 
This would cut down on a lot of waste for us and no doubt a lot of other businesses.

Such a program does not exist but it could be written.  You would need to consider whether you would always want the PO to be generated for the Primary Vendor and the designated Reorder Amount as specified in IN-B or if you would want to default to those values but allow the user to override to a different value.  I would imagine that when a vendor made such a delivery, there would be a number of items involved so I envision a screen that is populated with a list of item numbers and quantities with a Process button on the bottom that, when pressed, generates and receives the PO(s).

Yes that's exactly what we want!  Smiley
 
Just thought of another step would to process the invoice as well!  
 
What I'm visualising is a separate receipting screen which you would go into and receipt the goods (yes, we would want to be adjust the values) click the process button - which would create a PO, receive the PO, and process the invoice.  Cool
 
How much would it cost to create this Lynn?
