Order Stock

What is this screen?

When a manager wants to order stock, he/she can do it from this screen. Upon completing two simple fields in the form, an email will be constructed and sent to the respective suppplier of the product.

How do I use it?

When you want to order a product that is already in your database, simply do the following*:

1. Enter the exact product name as it is listed in the database.
2. Enter the quantity you would like to order from the supplier.
3. Click on the Place Order button. The rest of the fields will be auto-completed.
4. Click on the Confirm Order button once all the fields are auto-completed.
5. Wait while an email is sent to the supplier through the application.
6. A dialog will be displayed that confirms whether or not the email was successfully sent.

* For testing purposes, all supplier emails are made up. If you want to test the Order Stock function, make sure to first add a new supplier with a valid email address via the Add Supplier screen. Then, add a product to the database that belongs to this supplier. THEN you can use the order screen with the product you want to order.
