Notes on Adhoc items:
- An Adhoc item is used when a product does not currently exist at the property, and will not be needed again, such as a service or specialized product
- Adhoc items cannot have categories or sub categories assigned to them, which will limit some reporting capability
- Adhoc products can be added to any purchase requisition regardless of whether the requisition originated from a template or not.
- Adhoc items are automatically flagged as Requires Approval and need to be final approved before being processed to a Purchase Order
Note: If the Product line is colored Blue, it means that the product flagged as a Contracted Product, as per Fig.9. This flag is enabled in the product details screen (Property > Products).
Additional Buttons in the "Products" pane:
