MAGIC LOGISTICS
Procurement consists of Purchasing, Contract Management, Registration of Supplier (ROS)/Supplier Self-Service (SUS), and Competitive Procurements (RFxs). The Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) module is utilized for these Procurement-related activities and is fully integrated with the Finance modules within MAGIC. All public, active RFxs and associated attachments can be viewed at MS Contract / Procurement Opportunity Search once published in MAGIC, and the advertisement date is reached. Statewide Contracts and EPLs can also be viewed at this link. This link provides the ability to locate specific RFxs and contracts using multiple search criteria.
SRM is also integrated with the Human Capital Management (HCM) module to maintain workflow for procurement approvals. MAGIC offers a Universal Worklist (UWL) tool for managing approval tasks, receiving alerts, and handling notifications. Purchasing approval, dollar approval thresholds are applied to each manager within the agency’s organizational structure where procurement activities occur.
MAGIC Logistics Information
NIGP Look Up and Mapping to G/L AccountsThe NIGP Commodity/Services Code is the product of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing, Inc. (NIGP) and is copyrighted material. NIGP Lookup gives full description associated with the codes that are entered on all MAGIC procurement documents (shopping carts, purchase orders, RFxs, etc.)
NIGP GL Mapping accesses a spreadsheet that maps each NIGP 3-digit and 5-digit code to the associated MAGIC General Ledger (G/L) account. This spreadsheet also provides a cross reference to SAAS G/L Accounts, and indicates if a PO is required for a particular product category and G/L combination.
Purchasing and Catalogs
Purchasing - MAGIC’s Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) module offers e-procurement to buyers and suppliers for the entire procure-to-pay lifecycle. Users of the system can create Purchase Requisitions (Shopping Carts) to initiate the purchasing process or can create a Purchase Order. The SRM system is integrated with the Finance module to offer real-time budget checks. Funds are pre-encumbered when a Shopping Cart, with proper account assignment information, is approved. The Purchase Order is created from the approved Shopping Cart. After the Purchase Order is approved, the pre-encumbrance is released and the encumbrance is created.

Catalogs can be used to view and select products when creating a shopping cart or purchase order in SRM. Catalogs are available for non-MAGIC users via the Statewide Contract web page.

Inventory Management aids in efficient management of low-cost goods. MAGIC uses the Inventory Management module to track receipt of goods, total items on hand, location of the items, price, and issuance of goods. Agencies are also able to project the need for items by week, month, or season. Inventory Management is available to all state agencies. Inventory Management allows agencies to build a structure for management of its inventory. Agencies can manage inventory at the agency level or manage inventory at multiple locations (local offices, warehouses, storage rooms, or bins). Inventory Management uses moving average price to determine the cost of a specific item in inventory. Each time a new purchase is made, the value of the inventory item will be calculated.
How to get your agency ready to start using MAGIC’s Inventory Management
Inventory Management is a new statewide system for Mississippi, and MAGIC will be using two agencies to pilot this module. After Go-Live, other agencies may use the Inventory Management module. Once all the tasks are completed, MMRS will upload the file into MAGIC. The agency will then be able to use the Inventory Management module. If your agency is interested in implementing Inventory Management, follow the steps below:
- Contact MMRS to discuss a timeline and the steps necessary
- Map each inventory item to the appropriate NIGP code
- Build a file in the correct layout, with the NIGP codes and their current inventory counts
- Indicate a starting price for each item
Once all the tasks are completed, MMRS will upload the file into MAGIC. The agency will then be able to use the Inventory Management module.

Reviews for "Upgrade Your Blender with the Magic Bullet 11 Piece"
1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Magic Bullet 11 piece set. The motor was not powerful enough to blend fruits and vegetables smoothly. It left large chunks and I had to keep blending for longer periods of time. The cups and blades were also difficult to clean, as food seemed to get stuck in the crevices. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient blender.
2. John - 1 star - The Magic Bullet 11 piece set was a complete waste of money for me. The blades dulled after just a few uses, making it nearly impossible to get a smooth consistency no matter what I was blending. It was also extremely noisy, which made using it early in the morning or late at night impossible without disturbing others. The cups were also flimsy and cracked easily, making them useless for any kind of liquid or hot ingredients. I regret buying this product and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Jennifer - 3 stars - I had high hopes for the Magic Bullet 11 piece set, but it fell short in a few areas. While it blended ingredients relatively well, it struggled with harder fruits and vegetables, often leaving chunky bits. The cups were a good size, but the lids didn't fit securely, leading to spills and messes. The motor was also quite loud and seemed to struggle with continuous use. Overall, it's an average blender that didn't meet my expectations.
4. Robert - 2 stars - I found the Magic Bullet 11 piece set to be a disappointment. The motor was not strong enough to blend ice or frozen fruits to a smooth consistency, which was a major drawback. The cups and blades were also not durable and I found that they wore out easily over time. Additionally, the assembly was not user-friendly, as the cups and blades were difficult to lock into place. Overall, I wasn't impressed with this product and would not recommend it.
