Supply and logistics
The supply and logistics module runs purchasing for each project: requisitions and purchase orders, shipment tracking through bill of lading and delivery order, goods received against the order, supplier bills and payments. Every purchase stays linked to the project that needs it, so cost and stock land in the right place.

How a typical month runs
Site raises a requisition for material the job needs. Purchasing turns it into a purchase order against the project, the supplier confirms, and the shipment record follows it from manufacturer to port. When the bill of lading arrives the consignment is marked in transit, the delivery order releases it, and the store receives the goods against the order, the commercial invoice and the packing list. The supplier's bill is matched to what was ordered and received, and the payment is scheduled. At any point a project manager can see which of their orders are confirmed, at sea, at the port or received, and accounts payable ageing shows what is owed to whom.
Rules it enforces
- The goods receipt is built from the purchase order, commercial invoice, bill of lading and packing list.
- Receipt of the bill of lading sets the consignment to in transit.
- Shipping status lives on the shipment record, not as another status on the order.
Where it connects

It shares its records with the other areas: projects and tenders, site stores, quality and handover, interim payments, approvals, payroll and wps, time and attendance, finance and vat, banking and budgets, assets and documents.
