Purchasing

Buy smart. Receive right. Pay once.

Purchase requisitions, supplier management, and three-way matching — all connected to the production orders that demanded the parts in the first place.

Overview

Turn MRP suggestions into purchase orders with supplier selection, price agreements, and approval workflows. Receive goods with partial deliveries and quality holds, and match invoices against POs and receipts so nothing gets paid twice.

MRP recommendations convert to POs in one click — supplier, price, and lead time already filled in
Receive partial deliveries and leave the rest open — no manual tracking needed
Nothing is approved for payment until the three-way match passes

From request to payment — four steps

Every purchase follows the same sequence: quote, order, receive, match. Done MRP connects each step so nothing falls through the cracks.

Request for Quote

Send an RFQ to one or more suppliers. Record their responses, compare prices side by side, and select the winner.

Purchase Order

Create a PO from an MRP recommendation, an approved RFQ, or manually. Route through approval, then send to the supplier.

Goods Receipt

Record what arrives against the open PO. Partial deliveries stay open. Lot numbers, serial numbers, and expiry dates captured at receipt.

Match & Pay

Enter the supplier invoice and match it to the PO and goods receipt. All three must agree before the invoice is approved for payment.
