Products
Apptiflo Products are built to be used directly in Purchase Orders to make ordering easy. We have Supplier and Bundle Product types. A Supplier Product consists of Supplier Listings linked to Connected Suppliers. Your Product components will sync as Supplier Listings update, also keeping your Product up to date. A Bundle Product consists of Supplier Listings and Supplier Products. You can leverage Bundles to make your Products scalable. The end goal is to use the Order Builder to generate POs to all component Suppliers in one step.
Limitations of Product Documents
As your product catalog grows, it gets harder to keep track of product ordering specs. Your products evolve just as their underlying suppliers change. Product knowledge base solutions are available but they're only effective if its up to date. It takes time to keep track of everything and it's understandably easy to forget when there are more urgent tasks.
Eventually, placing a PO becomes stressful and requires more time to triple check. If a key team member is out of the office, everything stops until that team member gets back. It's also simple to fall back on replicating an older order and rely on the supplier to correct the order. This may come at an expense because you're following the supplier to set your order.
