Automatic actions when delivery Item¶
Generation does not apply to contracts, cartridges and consumables. In order to activate this feature, change the option Activate automatic generation to yes and validate. During the generation, the material will be created with some randomly generated information:
Default name
Default Serial Number
Default inventory number
If a template is associated with the part number, and in this template the name and serial number are generated, then the settings defined above for these 2 fields do not apply.
The default status will be set when the material is created. The positioning of the status during the creation of the material can lead to a date filling of the financial information. See the Entity Inventory tab.
Order lifecycle¶
You can define your own status for order lifecycle
Creation of a reference catalogue¶
You will access the reference catalogue from the Management > Orders > Products references.
The creation of product references is the prerequisite for order management. Any product to be ordered must be referenced in the plugin catalog. When creating a product reference, the following fields must be filled in:
Sub-entities: indicates if the reference will be visible in the current entity only or in the sub-entities as well.
Name: name of the reference, as it will be displayed when managing an order (required)
Manufacturer: the manufacturer of the product (not the supplier)
Type of equipment: indicates what type of equipment we are dealing with
Type: the type of the product
Model: the model of the product
Template: the GLPI template of the product if one already exists.
comments: additional information on the reference
Once the reference is created, it is then necessary to indicate from which supplier(s) the product is available, as well as the price associated with it.
It is also possible to :
Add related documents
View history
Creating an order¶
You will access orders from the Management > Orders > Orders.
Once the reference catalogue has been created, it is now possible to add material orders. The fields to be filled in are :
Sub-entities: indicates if the order is visible in the sub-entities
Order name
Order number (required)
Date of order (required)
Budget: The budget to which the purchase order is posted.
Vendor purchase order number: Indicates the internal number for the purchase order at the vendor.
Payment terms: free field (can contain for example 30 days end of month, 60 days end of month, etc)
Billing number
Supplier: the supplier with whom the order is placed. Only the catalogue references from this supplier may be added to the order.
Place of delivery of the order: indicates the place where the equipment will be delivered. This option has value only in the entity in which the order is created.
Description: description of the order
Status: Indicates the current status of the purchase order in the release run.
Estimated delivery date: indicates the indicative date by which the supplier must deliver the order.
It is also possible to :
Define author and recipient
Adding articles¶
In the Details tab, it is now possible to add products to the order.
Select the type of material to add to the order
Select product number
Indicate the quantity to order
Change the unit price if it is not the price indicated in the product reference.
Indicate the percentage discount on products
You can then validate the addition of these products to the order.
Note: it is possible to modify the price and the discount of a set of materials when the order is being edited. To do this, simply double-click on one of these 2 fields, modify its value and then validate the change.
Validation workflow¶
The plugin has a validation workflow that works as follows:
Creating the order: status In progress
Request for order release: status Pending approval
Order confirmed: the order then goes to the status In process of delivery.
Order completely received: automatic switch to Delivered status
Cancelled purchase order: Change to status Cancelled
The definition of the persons having the right to make a validation request, to validate or to cancel an order is done in the edition of the profiles.
Receiving the order¶
Once the order has been confirmed, the equipment can begin to be received. To do this, you must go to the Receiving Equipment(s) tab. Each product is identified by a line with the following information:
Product reference
Number of equipment(s) received
Number of material(s) related to inventory items in GLPI
Unit price of the product (excl. VAT)
Unit price of the product (incl. VAT)
Price per unit awarded (excl. VAT)
By clicking on the + icon on the left of the line, it is possible to access the details of the products ordered.
Receiving material¶
It is possible to receive the material that has been ordered, from the moment the order is validated. You have to go to the tab Reception of material(s). One line is displayed for each product reference ordered. This line contains the following information:
Product reference
Received equipment(s): indicates the number of equipment received out of the total number of equipment ordered for this product.
Related equipment(s): number of goods received related to inventory items in GLPI
Price per unit (excl. VAT)
Unit price (incl. VAT)
Price per unit awarded (excl. VAT)
In order to proceed to the reception of products, just click on the + icon on the left of the line.
There are 2 ways to receive material :
Reception of materials selected from the list of products ordered but not yet received
Receipt of materials in bulk: in this case we will indicate how many products are received (without first selecting from the list).
In both cases, it is necessary to return the delivery note associated with the reception of the material. Alternatively, a status of the received objects can be indicated (e.g. Conforming, Non-conforming, etc). Once received, it is possible to :
Generate a material in GLPI from the received product
Link the product received to existing GLPI equipment
Generate the material¶
In order to generate materials from received products, simply select from the list those for which this operation is to be performed. Then select the Generate associated material option. A screen will appear. Each line represents a received product, and the following information must be given:
Name of the material generated in GLPI
Serial code
Asset number
Note:
If there is a template associated with the reference of the generated product, and if the latter is created in the same entity as the reference, then the inventory object in GLPI will be created from this template.
The financial information of the order will be carried in the newly created inventory object.
Link to an inventory item¶
It is possible not to generate a received product, but to link it to material already present in GLPI. To do this, you must select the option Link to an existing material. A drop-down list will appear and will present all the materials present in GLPI which :
Are in the entity of the order (or in a sub-entity if the order is visible in the sub-entities)
With the same type of equipment
With the same type of equipment
Identical
Once linked to a product, the material in GLPI will receive the financial information from the order.
Rights management¶
The plugin rights management allows to define, by profile, if the user has the right to :
Manage commands
Manage product references
Manage invoices
Confirm an order
Cancel an order
Modify a validated order
