Chase Purchase Orders

 

Purchase Orders which have not been fully received by a certain date, which therefore require 'chasing up'.

 

Identify situations where it is necessary to chase supplier(s) and/or monitor the arrival of overdue orders. Can also be used as the basis for cash flow projection forecasting.

 

Cost Difference
