How to enter a size on a order that is not owned

ProfitSystem TPS & TPOS software only features.

There are two techniques available to handle entering rental items on orders that the company does not own.

Both methods require the inventory system to contain a style for the item being rented. 1) Without Validation: WinTPS/TPOS has the option to allow entry of any size on an order (no validation) via the System Setup->Rental tab->Allow any size on rental. Enabled, a not owned size is entered WinTPS will check availability and complain that the size is NOT available. The user would then indicate to the system to SAVE the order forcing it into an Overbooked condition. Any size could be entered onto a order this way. 2) With Validation: Pre enter sizes in inventory with no quantity. Operators could only enter sizes that exists in the inventory. WinTPS will check availability and complain that the size is NOT available. The user would then indicate to the system to SAVE the order forcing it into an Overbooked condition. Only sizes pre entered into the inventory could be added to a order when the System Setup->Rental tab->Allow any size on rental is disabled.

Item sizes entered not owned or not available may be immediately viewed via the Overbooked report by the Production manager. This will provide the manager the tools to order the items from a supplier or to purchase additional inventory to fulfill the order.
