Here is a layout for all of the features and functions included in the Enterprise Resource Planning module along with some related user guide links.
ERP Table of Contents:
Dashboard
This is essentially your ERP Homepage - the first thing that loads when you open ERP. This is where you can view your daily business metrics both holistically and on a more granular level. Use the dashboard for a snapshot of any one day's orders, sales, P/Os, and inventory. To reach the dashboard, just click on the DigitBridge logo in the upper left-hand corner.
Favorites
Think of this as your command center, allowing you to create shortcuts to the functions and reports you use most regularly. We highly recommend that you do this right out of the gate.
Tip: Make this one of the first things you do in DigitBridge!

Inventory
This is your one-stop-shop to add/edit items and track the what, where, and how much of just about everything. Create Products allows you to add a new item profile with a unique SKU (and UPC) and assign all related attributes and variations (colors, sizes, etc.). Enjoy a powerful sort & filter feature built to give you a customized view into your current Inventory. Use the Price Book to set up custom price rules for your product. Keep track of who in your organization is making Inventory Adjustments. Manage your Costs and always know your current Inventory Value. Don't sell out or overstock with the assistance of our Available to Sell (ATS) reporting. Automatically handle Inventory Replenishment and use those insights to generate P/Os Proposals.

Track your orders here to see what’s pending, what’s ready to ship, and what’s been shipped already. This area covers all aspects of the sales process from initial Sales Orders to Shipments, Returns, and Invoices. Dive into sales metrics with the Sales Order Inquiry and sort by high performing items to approach your sales more strategically and with greater efficiency.

Accounts Receivable
Keep track of money owed to your business. This tab helps you manage incoming Payments, Credit Memos, Refund Receipts, and Miscellaneous Transactions. Did a customer overpay? Are you processing a refund or crediting it against a future purchase? You can also enter Sales Commissions for your sales reps using settings customized to your preferred commission structure. All of this will assist you in maintaining a healthy cash flow.

Purchasing
This is your hub for all purchasing activities. Manage your Vendor records and transaction history. Track P/Os by status and close them out as you pay them. Turn a P/O Proposal into an official P/O. Just like a Sales Order, each Purchase Order has its own unique history that you can access here. Analyze data so you can approach future orders more strategically.
