Vendor Managed Inventory- VMI

In VMI, Vendors/suppliers are going to have access to company’s portal (i-Supplier), through this suppliers are able to see the on-hand position of the stocks/items as part of the agreement. When suppliers notify that on-hand quantities fall below minimum levels, they will create releases and deliver the goods to inventory. For such type of suppliers, we provide privilege them, by making the payment once we receive the goods.
