Hi Everyone,
I signed up on the users list and wanted to introduce myself here as well. I'm Tim Wasson, I live in Houston, TX. I'm going to use weberp for a tiny game publishing company. What sold me on weberp was: Free Software PHP and web based without Javascript (hate that stuff) Inventory and sales support I was actually a senior application engineer with Intacct (www.intacct.com), and worked on their -wait for it - web-based PHP accounting application. ;-) I asked my question on the users list, but I'll ask it here as well in case someone can point me in the right direction to hack it up myself: I need to generate an AP entry for a supplier (game designer) every time I sell one of their games. My general approach at this time is to have a BOM entry for the royalty amount, and have the sale of a stock/inventory item generate an AP entry from that BOM entry. Thoughts? I saw that someone asked generically about royalties and was told there was no such support, but if there is a more generic "make an AP entry from sales", that might just work for these cases.

Hi Tim, great to have you on board. The simple answer to your question
is that the facility doesn't exist. I guess to create a generic solution we need a method of turning stock levels that are below the re-order levels into Purchase orders. In your case that re-order level would be zero. Thinking about it as I type the problem with this solution for you is that the item would be non stock. Even so thats still possibly an easier work around. The data is all there, we have stock levels by location, re-order levels by location and an eoq figure for each item. A script to create POs from this shouldn't be hard. Maybe the script should provide a list of suggested orders, and then allow you to click on it to create the order. What do you think?

Hi Tim,
My "poor man's version" was this: Each individual game designer's royalty (DR) would be an inventory item, which is allowed to go negative. (this works now) DR UOM is dollars (odd but doable) DR is a BOM item for his games (works) DR goes more negative as more games are sold (works) Each quarter I run a "low stock level" report and create PO's to order these items from the supplier (each game designer is also a supplier) I think this would work as-is right now. The problem is that my books don't show my accumulated liability of designer's royalties that I haven't paid yet, unless negative inventory quantities show up as a liability (not sure). If I pay out as often as I care about my books, this might not be a problem. A "low stock" report would give me a usable number. I think the "auto-PO" is a cool general feature. It would help automate the process I described above. It's a little complicated because it would need to assume a supplier (use the preferred?), and it would be nice to combine multiple items from a supplier onto a single PO. Another generic thing is to create an "outside payable" stock item that would generate an AP item to the preferred supplier. This might work better for calendar-oriented payments (quarterly, etc) combining all payables to a supplier into a single payment, while the "auto PO" is better for actual physical items. Thoughts?
