About Purchase Quotes

Purchase Quotes are used to provide a formal request to a vendor for goods or services that your company requires. They can be alternatively used for employees to requisition items from a central supply. Purchase quotes can easily be converted to purchase orders.

Q & A - Purchase Quotes

Q01.   Why is it that you do not have to put a SKU item number in for the items you want to purchase?
A01.   When you are making a purchase quote, it is possible that some items may never have been purchased before and therefore would not have an item number in your Supertrack Inventory. Therefore, SKU numbers are not required when creating a purchase quote.

Q02.   I don't see my question here. Where else can I get information?
