True Value Electronic Receipt Posting (ERP)

 

Electronic Receipt Posting (ERP) allows you to electronically post purchase order receipts (A-Copy invoices). Using ERP you can:

  • preview what is being shipped and review out of stock items before the order arrives

  • save time receiving the order and reduce posting errors

  • add new items on the invoice directly to your Inventory file

  • process price changes and print labels before the order arrives

This job aid assumes you have completed all the set up steps required to receive ERP. For more information, refer to online help. From the Contents tab, open the Vendor-Specific Procedures book, the True Value book, the True Value Telecommunications book.
