The reports available in the Bulk Coop section are ideal for enterprises on the OFN platform, such as buying groups, who use the Group Buy feature.
There are four reports in this section are:
Use
Supplier Report
List products by supplier.
A good place to look to see if
enough of a product has been
ordered to justify the supplier's bulk size.
Allocation
Lists products by customer.
A good place to look to
ensure you over / under
allocate bulk buy items to
customers evenly (ie. one
person is not short on all
items in their order)
Packing Sheet
Re-packing products delivered a supplier in bulk for customer
collection
The data in each report is as follows:
Products stocked by a hub which do not have bulk buy enabled will display with Bulk Unit = 0
This report will show the following information:
Did customers order enough of a product to justify ordering the bulk size from the supplier?
How much extra product are customers willing to purchase to help the group reach the bulk size threshold (if is enabled)
How many bulk sizes are required to meet customer demand?
See the example below for an illustration of how the Bulk Co-op Totals by Supplier report can be used:
Example 1: Where the bulk ordering quantity has been reached:
Example 2: where the bulk order quantity has not been reached:
Note the ‘Bulk Co-op Allocations’ report is similar in function to this report, but shows each customer’s order individually, rather than the cumulative total across all customers.
