Use Cases

The Inventory Module flexibly supports diverse supply chain workflows across distribution centers, manufacturing, and retail networks.

1. Central Logistics Distribution (Multi-Warehouse Transit)

Business Scenario: A regional distributor manages one central logistics hub supplying 12 regional distribution warehouses and retail stores.

• Primary Applets: Warehouse Management Applet, Stock Transfer Applet, Stock Balance Applet
• Operational Flow: Central hub dispatches stock transfer note → items marked in-transit → receiving warehouse executes stock-in receipt → real-time balances update across all branches.

2. Pharmaceutical & Food Lot Control (Batch Expiry Management)

Business Scenario: A food distributor manages perishable inventory requiring FEFO (First-Expired, First-Out) picking enforcement and lot recall traceability.

• Primary Applets: Stock Availability Applet, Stock Balance Applet
• Operational Flow: Inbound supplier shipment received with manufacturing and expiry dates → system automatically recommends picking oldest batches first → full lot tracking maintained for audit reporting.

3. Light Assembly & Kitting (Item Bundling)

Business Scenario: A retail merchant bundles multiple individual stock SKUs into promotional gift boxes or assembly kits.

• Primary Applets: Stock Conversion Applet, Doc Item Maintenance Applet
