Re: use of credit cards

Charles,

Given that it'll be much easier for MRP to be cognizant of the supply 
transaction, I'm pretty sure that a system resident order is required.  In an 
attempt to suffice that requirement BUT take advantage of remitance 
simplification available through a purchase card we created a vendor terms code 
"PC" or something like that to be invoked on such an order transaction.  At the 
back end of the process, the existence on a corresponding receipt transaction 
[in our case typically a "U"] suffices any requirement for charge authorization.

does anybody use credit cards for inventory purchases? if so, do you still need 
to create a po? it appears that the bpcs receiving and purchase price variance 
routines require that you create a po, even though your vendor is quite willing 
to simply bill you via a credit card. does anybody have any thoughts on this 
subject?
