Stock & orders overview

Purchase orders in Printpak are of two distinct types: - Ad Hoc and Stock
Ad Hoc orders are one-off purchases for anything required in production or delivery of a job.
They can be specified for any task in the estimate calculation.
Stock orders are purchase orders raised specifically to replace or supply controlled
stock items
used (or to be used) in a job.
Stock usage can be explicitly reserved by simply specifying a controlled stock paper or board in
an estimate.
At confirmation, all associated purchase orders and stock reservations are activated and placed
in the committals tab of the job desktop. This tab simply itemizes
those requirements, and allows
the user to adjust, create or delete them, and in the case of purchase orders, approve them for
printing. Note that you can only adjust a stock reservation in this way if the stock item has not
yet been issued.
