Open the Inventory menu and select Settings.
Scroll to the Purchase Order Settings and Purchase Order Emails sections.
After making changes, click Save All at the top of the page.
Cost averaging
Cost Averaging: check Average stock cost when purchase orders lines are received. to update each item's cost to a weighted average of its current cost and the purchase order rate whenever you receive stock. See How to enable Cost Averaging for the formula.
Exclude FBA stock for cost averaging.: shown on accounts with an Amazon integration. When checked, Fulfillment by Amazon stock is left out of the on-hand quantity used in the average.
Default reorder rule
The Re-order Rule box holds your account's default formula for suggested purchase order quantities, used when you add items to a purchase order with Use suggested quantity turned on. Reorder rules are not available on every plan. For recommended rules, see Automating purchasing in SKULabs: How to set up reorder rules and How to create an advanced reorder rule.
Purchase order email settings
These settings control the emails SKULabs sends when you email a purchase order to a supplier. You must fill in From Name and From E-mail before you can send purchase orders by email.
From Name: the sender name your supplier sees.
From E-mail: the address purchase orders are sent from. Verify this address using the link in the section so emails are delivered.
CC: extra addresses that receive a copy of every purchase order email. A CC address saved on the supplier is added as well.
Subject: the email subject line. You can use these placeholders: STORE (store name), NUMBER (purchase order number) and TOTAL (purchase order total). If left blank, the subject is STORE Purchase Order #NUMBER.
If your purchase order email uses a LiquidJS template, the sender, CC and subject are set in that template's email options instead of on this page. See How to customize templates.
Purchase order emails not arriving
If suppliers do not receive your purchase orders, see Troubleshooting email notifications in SKULabs or contact support@skulabs.com.
