## Reviews

### "Feedback for Merit" — 4.0/5

> **Thomas** | *12 September 2022* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Inventory management and accuracy for manufacturing purposes to ensure on-time delivery.  Ease to initiate a purchase requisition.
> 
> **Cons**: There are many steps to create formulas, etc. for each part number.  It would be helpful to have this all on a single page or minimal pages.  That way the user can add many formulas in parallel.
