​How to Use:
​
​

1. Navigate to ‘Barrel Management Console (BMC)’ from the universal search bar.
​
2. Navigate to the ‘Barrel Management’ tab and click the ‘Buy Filled Barrel’
​
3. Build the Purchase
​
​

  • Select the Vendor & Purchase Date
    ​
    ​

  • Selecting a date in the past will result in the Purchase being created in ‘Received’ status. Selecting a date in the future will result in the Purchase being created in ‘Ordered’ status.
    ​
    ​

  • Select the barrel Equipment Type and the Product that represents the spirit inside the barrel. Users can purchase multiple filled barrels of different barrel types.
    ​
    ​

  • Enter the details of each barrel type being purchased.
    ​
    ​

  • The ‘Barrel Cost’ defines the cost of the barrel itself, absent the liquid inside the barrel. This barrel cost may be disbursed across multiple barrel fills if Equipment Type ‘Planned Fill Count’ > 1.
    ​
    ​

  • The ‘Total Cost’ for filled barrels represents the value of the barrel itself plus the spirit inside of the barrel. This is the cost that will be passed to the liquid at the time of dumping the barrel.
    ​
    ​

  • Click ‘Receive’
    ​
    ​

4. Navigate to the Purchase to mark as ‘Confirmed’. This is required before the filled barrels can be dumped.
​
​

  • The barrels from this Purchase will be in ‘Pending’ status until the Purchase is Confirmed.
    ​
    ​

  • Barrel Purchases can be found in the ‘Barrel Purchases’ tab in the BMC. Click the arrow on a Purchase to access the record in question.
    ​
    ​

  • The barrels will move to ‘Active’ once the Purchase is Confirmed. The filled barrels can now be dumped if needed.
