    Reconciling Purchase Orders

    When reconciling purchase orders in Supply'd, users can easily verify payments, track order statuses & resolve discrepancies, streamlining the reconciliation process for better financial clarity.

    Reconciling Purchase Orders in Supply’d helps you ensure that what was ordered matches what was received and invoiced. This process allows you to confirm quantities, costs, and supplier details, making it easier to identify discrepancies, track deliveries, and maintain accurate inventory and financial records.

    This document will guide you through reconciling your purchase orders, including:

    The Expenses Page

    When you select Expenses from the main menu, the Expenses page will open. At the top, you'll see four tabs - Reconcile, Payments, Completed and Invoice Files.

    Invoice files will have colour-coded statuses beside them:

    • - The invoice has been matched to the order, but not yet reconciled.

    If you remove files from a purchase order while reconciling, they’ll go back to Invoice Files instead of being deleted. You can remove invoices from Invoice Files later if they’re duplicates or no longer needed.

    Payments

    The Payments tab displays purchase orders that have been reconciled but still have pending payments scheduled for suppliers.

    Completed

    The Completed tab lists purchase orders that have been paid and reconciled.

    Reconciling a Purchase Order

    1

    Select the Purchase Order

    To reconcile a purchase order, select it from the list. The purchase order details will open.


    2

    Additional Options for Order Items

    Clicking on the 3 dots beside an item will bring up a menu.


    Change Line Tax

    Opens the Change Tax form which will allow you to change to change the line tax.

    Tax* [required field]

    Which tax applies to this line item on this order. Options in the drop-down menu are GST and GST Free.

    Update Product

    Whether or not to update the product to match the tax for future orders for this supplier. Select Yes or No from the drop-down menu.


    Change Units/Cartons

    Opens the Change Units/Cartons form, where you can change whether the item was purchased in cartons or individual units.

    Ordered By

    Whether this line item was ordered by the unit or by cartons. Select Unit or Carton from the drop-down menu.

    Update Product

    Whether or not to update the product to match the units/cartons for future orders for this supplier. Select Yes or No.

    Click to apply your selections.


    Edit Price

    This will open the Edit Price form, allowing you to update the pricing accordingly.

    While it is possible to edit the price from this screen, it is recommended to follow the method outlined in the document for greater accuracy and consistency.


    Add Price Change

    Opens The Add Price Change form where you can update the product prices across selected sales channels. You can also choose schedule when the change takes effect.

    👉 See the document for details on completing this.


    View Related Recipes

    If this is an ingredient or product that is used as part of a recipe in other products, this will allow you to view those products. You can then ascertain whether or not the price change will in turn affect the price of the other products.

    In our example, the Pink Unicorns are used in a 3 pack of unicorns. The price for these would need to increase for us to maintain our preferred margins.

    If this ingredient is used in small quantities within a recipe, such as sugar or salt, the resulting price difference may be negligible, making a price increase unnecessary.


    Additional Options for the Order

    Clicking on the 3 dots at the top right of the order details, will bring up a menu:


    Finalise

    An alternative to the button. Will finalise the reconciling process and schedule payment for the invoice.

    The selected item will be added to the purchase order, however, no stock will be added to your inventory. Please make sure you have received the additional stock, if needed, independently from adding this item to the purchase order.


    Edit Invoice

    Price Calculation Method

    What method to use for this invoice for the line item unit price.

    Sometimes invoices don’t show discounts in the unit price correctly. In those cases, when reconciling, you can change the Price Calculation Method to Line Amount & Quantity to calculate the unit price.

    • Unit Price: Use the unit price scanned on the invoice by Supply'd Intelligence. This is the default.

    • Line Amount & Quantity: Use the line amount divided by the quantity. Typically used for when unit prices do not include line discounts.

    Prices are Tax Inclusive?

    Whether prices in the scanned invoice are tax-inclusive. Supply'd assumes they are exclusive when scanning. Changing this setting will adjust prices based on your product settings. Select Yes or No from the drop-down menu.

    Check for Discrepancies

    Supply'd will scan the invoice to identify discrepancies with the order. During this process, "PROCESSING" will appear with a yellow background at the top of the invoice.

    Once Supply'd has finished scanning the invoice, you will be asked to refresh the page. Click where it says "Click here to refresh".

    "SCANNED" will appear across the top of the invoice with a blue background.

    Please note that this process may not be 100% accurate and scanning errors may occur, so it's important to manually verify as well.

    In the example provided, the quantities received align with the invoice, indicated by the '=' symbol with a blue background. All prices match except for one discrepancy.

    In our example, Supply'd have picked up a discrepancy in the price of the Pink Unicorns. The purchase order says they are $1.25 each while the invoice has them at $1.35, an increase of 8%. At this price, the margin has decreased from 31% to 26%, falling below our preferred margin of 30%, as highlighted with a yellow background.

    Hovering over the Margin field will show a pop-up with all the margins for the various sales channels.

    If this is a price increase, you can update the product’s buy price by ticking the Update Product Buy Prices box at the bottom left. You can also use the Update Batch Cost of Goods feature to update costings for specific batches.

    👉 See Step 6 - .

    You can update your sale price by clicking the three dots next to the product to open a menu, then selecting Edit Pricing.

    👉 See below.

    Perform any additional actions.

    👉 See Additional Options for Order Items and Reconciling Purchase Orders below.


    7

    Tick Update Product Buy Price & COGs Boxes

    If a product in your order has a price increase, you can update its buy price in Supply’d by selecting the Update Product Buy Prices checkbox at the bottom left.

    If you only need to adjust costs for certain batches, use the Update Batch Cost of Goods feature instead. This lets you update pricing at the batch level without changing the overall product buy price.

    Update Product Buy Prices

    This option automatically updates the default buy price of a product based on the actual price paid on a recent invoice. It keeps your product costs current without you needing to track every change manually.
