Suggested Sales List


System Maintenance Menu -> Configure System Settings -> Operations Tab -> Inventory -> Suggested Sales List

Inventory Control Menu -> Inventory Inquiry -> Suggested Sales List (view only)


The Suggested Sales List can be used to recommend other items to be sold when the primary item is rented or sold on a Contract, Reservation, Quotation, or Miscellaneous Invoice.
For example, if a sander was rented, a Suggested Sales List containing several sizes of sandpaper would appear on the document in the Select Suggested Sales List window.

The SSL records can be maintained in the Suggested Sales List window in the "Inventory" parameters on the Operations tab of the Configure System Settings.
An operator must be assigned a Security Role that allows permission to the Operations - Suggested Sales List in order to access this table.

Assigning the Suggest Sales List to the products:
An SSL can be assigned to specific products using Update Suggested Sales Lists by Products or individually in Sales Inventory and Rental Inventory.

Suggested Sales Lists can also be copied from the Group to products in that Group using Clone Group Information to Products.


Availability Checking on SSL Items added to a Document:
The Kit/SSL Enforces Document Location Override Restrictions flag in the Company Security Parameters controls whether quantity overbooking is enforced when Suggested Sales List items are added to a document.

During contract or invoice entry, this amount can be over-typed if it is not correct.

Check this box if the item is almost always sold with the primary rental item.
e.g. Popcorn is usually sold when a popcorn maker is rented.

Uncheck this box if the item is optional.
e.g. Popcorn cups may be sold when a popcorn maker is rented.


DISC %
When the item is sold as a part of the Suggested Sales List, a discount can be assigned to the sales item.
This can be used to create "Package Deals".

  • Type Y or select Yes from the drop-down list if this product should be included on the website.
  • Type N or select No if this product should not be included on the website.
