Enhanced reorder approval process The latest update allows reorders saved as purchase orders to support an approval process. Reorders generated by the POS system based on various formulas can now be reviewed, edited, and approved through the WhatsNow mobile app before finalizing the order. This enhancement ensures better control, reducing errors, and empowering teams to make more informed purchasing decisions-perfect for busy store managers who need flexibility and accuracy in inventory management. For example, a pharmacy chain manager notices that the automated reorder for certain medicines is higher than usual. Through the WhatsNow app, they quickly review and adjust the quantities to avoid overstock, ensuring only the required items are ordered, saving both time and cost. |
