If you have permission from the state, you may accept non-medicated transfers. There are unique requirements for accepting non-medicated items in Pennsylvania.
Note: The process for accepting seeds from an anonymous source is slightly different.
Create the Partner Acting as the Source Vendor
You are required by the system to create a partner for the Purchase Order.
Create a partner profile for the vendor with the following requirements on the Create Partner page:
Select the Sell To and Purchase From options from the Partner Type drop-down menu.
Add at least one facility to the profile. You only need to fill out the basic required facility information. Documents are not needed.
You can make up the name for the organization and partner, since it is "anonymous".
Create the Appropriate Product Master
Create a product master for the incoming inventory to be assigned to. Keep the following requirements in mind:
The product master must be assigned to the correct subcategory.
For seeds, the subcategory is seed, not wholesale seed.
The We purchase this item checkbox must be selected.
The partner you are receiving inventory from must be added as a vendor.
Create the Purchase Order
Open the App Drawer, expand the Supply Chain menu and click Create Purchase Order.
Select the Initial Inventory Creation checkbox.
Enter the information about the partner you're purchasing from:
From the Partner drop-down menu, select the partner you created for this purpose.
From the Partner Facility drop-down menu, select the facility you created for this purpose.
Optionally, fill in the Date Ordered, Date Expected, Time Expected, and Vendor Invoice Number fields. Although these fields are not required, they make it much easier to search and sort through your Purchase Orders later.
From the Item drop-down menu, select the product master you created for this purpose. This displays the Requested Amount field.
In the Requested Amount or Total # of Units field, enter the quantity expected. This populates the Total Line Item Price field.
Optionally, select an Expected Storage Location.
If you are ordering more than one item, click Add Another Item.
Enter the payment information as usual.
Click Save (not Receive Transfer).
Receive the Inventory
Instead of supply chain mapping, manually receive the transfer. The Purchase Order to receive from will be listed under the Non-Medicated tab.
