Demo video: Supply Approvals
Procurement Approvals is a module designed to streamline the procurement approval process within businesses. Employees can submit procurement requests for one or multiple products, which are then reviewed and approved by managers. The system automatically suggests the most suitable procurement method, optimizing purchasing, manufacturing, or stock transfers between warehouses.
Key Features
- Create Procurement Requests:
- Employees can request procurement for one or multiple products.
- Specify the desired quantity, warehouse, and required date.
- Approve Procurement Requests:
- Managers can approve or reject requests.
- If the product is not a service, managers can select a preferred supply route or leave it blank to use the default route.
- Automated Processing After Approval:
- For non-service products:
- The system automatically determines the best procurement method, such as stock transfers between warehouses, manufacturing orders, or draft purchase orders.
- If procurement cannot proceed due to missing configurations, the system logs an issue in the chatter and notifies a designated user to take corrective action.
- For service products:
- The system creates a purchase order accordingly.
