Setting Your Purchasing Vendor

Your quarterly O/PUS® multi-vendor database load updates the pricing for your Item database. You can then maximize your purchasing power using a combination of tools to set primary purchasing vendor. Some dealers base their purchasing vendor based on volume incentives using the (+IL) tool. Others base it on the lowest price and/or best rebate percentage, using the (+IZ) tool. In this video, watch how it is done.

Note: It is also possible to set your purchasing vendor based on a Dealer Enhanced Cost by applying a percentage on individual vendor price plans, using the (+IT) tool. Due to the length of the procedure, this method is not included in the video below.
