Ace Hardware: How to check RSC stock on hand for inventory and when ordering

This feature provides real-time stock on hand information for the Ace Retail Service Center you designate.

This article contains these three procedures:

• How to sort your purchase order by RSC availability
• How to get real-time quantity on hand for any Ace inventory item
• How to designate your Ace RSC

 

How to sort your purchase order by RSC availability

1. In the PO module, click Recall PO or press F6.
2. Highlight an Ace Hardware PO, and then before you recall (open) the PO, select the Supplier Stock Check checkbox.
3. When you click Recall or press F12, the purchase order is sorted into these categories based on RSC availability:

• SUPPLIER OUT OF STOCK: Shows PO items that are not in stock at the RSC.
• PARTIAL STOCK AVAILABLE: Shows PO items that are in stock at the RSC, but not enough to cover your current order quantity.
• STOCK AVAILABLE: Shows PO items that are in stock at the RSC for your order quantity.

4. To view the RSC quantity on hand (QOH) for any item on the purchase order, select the item, and then click Stock Check or press F7.

Tip: If your PO is lengthy, you can search for categories using the binoculars icon in the upper-right of the PO window. Enter the search term “stock”.
