Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Purchase Orders
Can I email purchase orders directly to suppliers?
Yes! Generate a professional PDF purchase order and email it directly from InkSync. Supplier contact info is saved, so reordering is just a few clicks.
What if I receive a partial shipment?
No problem! Mark which items were received and in what quantities. The PO stays open for the remaining items, and your inventory updates reflect only what you actually received.
Can I track costs over time?
Absolutely! View cost history for each item across suppliers, track price increases, and analyze your spending patterns. Great for negotiating better rates or finding new suppliers.
Do I need approval workflows for purchases?
Optional! Small studios can skip approval entirely. Larger operations can require manager approval for orders over a certain amount or for specific suppliers.
