Request for Quote are used to enter purchase from a vendor. Reports can be generated to list the inventory shortfalls and inventory purchases. Each inventory item has a minimum balance field that can be used to help identify when inventory needs to be ordered. Request for Quotes do not affect your financial situation, income statement or balance sheet. they merely act as a placeholder to determine inventory stock levels needed to add or replace inventory stock levels.
