Purchase Orders
Create, send, and track purchase orders — with CSV/AI upload, supplier email + review workflow, cost tracking, and credit memo linkage.
Suppliers
Manage suppliers and per-product catalogs — costs, lead times, pack sizes, contacts, and primary supplier assignments that drive forecasts and PO generation.
Credit Memos
Record and recover supplier credits — for receive discrepancies, overcharges, freight, and reversals — with a guided builder, auto-numbering, a status workflow, branded PDF export, and optional stock write-downs.
Receiving & Stocktakes
Receive purchase orders, run stocktakes, log per-line issues (damaged / short / wrong item / defective), and make ad-hoc inventory adjustments — with barcode scanning and direct sync to Shopify.
