  • Order Code – This is the unique code used between the supplier and vendor to identify the specific product linked to it.
    • Example:
      Fritolay is the general supplier, but to identify which product to order they each have a unique order code to specify which one you want – e.g. Doritoes-FR33, Cheetos-FR66
  • Description – This field is optional but can be used for any text you want to put in there. 
    • Example:
      What does it look like? What is its size, color, etc.
  • Container Amount – This is the smallest amount of a certain product that you can purchase from your supplier.
    • Example: 
      Cigarettes – one carton or 10 packs
  • Item Price – This is the amount you would pay the supplier per individual product.
  • Container Price – This field is where you would enter the amount you pay for the container. The number is automatically generated based on the Container Amount and Item Price fields.
