Inventory and Purchase Management

Know what you hold, what it cost and what needs ordering — across locations, batches and units.

The business problem

Stock on the system stops matching stock on the shelf. Fast movers run out while slow movers tie up cash, expiry dates are noticed too late, and purchase decisions get made on memory rather than consumption.

Core capabilities

  • Real-time stock with low-stock alerts
  • Batch and expiry tracking, and serial-number tracking
  • Barcode scanning for receipt, billing and stock-take
  • Product variants and multiple units with conversions
  • Multi-warehouse and godown transfers
  • Purchase orders, quotations, returns and supplier ledgers
  • Stock valuation and outstanding-payment tracking

How we deliver it

  1. Build product masters with units, variants and barcodes

  2. Take an opening physical count per location

  3. Set reorder levels and batch rules

  4. Run a stock-take after the first cycle to confirm accuracy

Customisation

Unit conversions, barcode formats, reorder logic and warehouse structures are configurable. Scanner and weighbridge integration can be evaluated for your hardware.

What to have ready

Most of what decides whether this works is settled before any software is configured.

  • A decision on units — what you buy in, what you sell in, and the conversion between them
  • Item codes that will not be reinvented at the counter next month
  • An opening stock count someone has actually done, not one reconstructed from purchases
  • Who is responsible for recording receipts, named, before go-live

When this is not the right fit

  • You hold no stock, or stock so small that a shelf count takes two minutes
  • Your items have no stable identity — bespoke one-off pieces do not benefit from item-level tracking
  • You are unwilling to record goods at receiving; nothing downstream survives that gap

Integration possibilities

Every integration carries an honest status. Open one to see its current position, what it connects and what it needs.

Questions

Yes. Stock is held per location with transfers between them, while the product master stays single — so pricing and reporting remain consistent.
