Managing multiple purchase orders manually, sometimes in different systems entirely, is a huge time drain for wine and spirits distributors. That’s why purchase consolidation in 365WineTrade is one of the best-loved features for our customers.
365WineTrade is our fully integrated, all-in-one cloud ERP solution for wine and spirits distributors designed to integrate, automate, and connect your business. And purchase consolidation is one of the many ways we do that.
Consolidate, Track, and Manage Multiple Imports in One Place
Most wine and spirits distributors want a fast and easy way to enter, track, and manage multiple purchase orders by country or supplier so you can quickly know what’s coming, where it’s going, when it was received, and what you can sell. And it shouldn’t take a thousand steps or a bunch of emails or paper documents to do it.
Whether you do direct imports to customers or import to 3PL warehouses—or both—365WineTrade purchase consolidations make it easy to group and manage any number of purchase orders in one place.

2. Add your purchase orders to the consolidation you just created. All purchase lines will be automatically added to the consolidation:
3. View consolidation totals for the import including number of cases, volume, and weight.
4. Set quantities to be received, for all purchase lines within the purchase consolidation screen, and post them.
5. Transactions flow and post seamlessly across 365WineTrade including purchasing and sales orders, AP and AR, and fulfillment – without any duplicate entry!
