A great benefit to implementing a systematic approach to purchasing is the ability to automatically identify low inventory levels and generate purchase orders.

This is extremely helpful if your business has multiple warehouses or large amounts of inventory. Order Time gives you the tools to quickly create an inventory valuation report, the total monetary value of your goods in inventory.
