03 / Procurement
Procurement from requirement to receipt.
Connect material demand, approvals, supplier orders and receiving progress—without losing the link to the work that needs them. Production requirements retain their originating context; goods receipts add recorded stock, while material issue is a separate movement.
A request is separate from a supplier order. This approved request already covers the requirement.
Illustrative purchasing workflow · Example data
Demand with context
See the source requirement and existing requests before raising additional purchasing. Keep the original job and production order within reach.
Controlled purchasing
Move approved requirements into supplier orders with quantities, units, prices and tax details.
Receiving visibility
Track arrivals and outstanding quantities against the order, with goods receipts linked.
How requests and orders stay distinct
A draft request can cover demand before an order exists. Approved requests can create supplier orders; conversion counts the quantity once. Rejected or cancelled requests and cancelled supply do not count as active coverage. Request approval, marking an order as ordered, and recording a receipt are separate authorised actions. A receipt adds stock; issuing it to production is another action.
