Figure 1: Control Panel Menu – Items

You can manage item catalogues for your approved vendor list in PLANERGY. Entire catalogues can be added to the system for specific vendors if needed. This can be used to enforce tight control over what the individual users can buy but it’s most straightforward use is to ensure items are added with the correct detail and pricing. You can then report back on ordering in the system by item as needed.

From the main page of the Items section you can view, edit or add new items. Depending on your permissions you may not see all of these options.
