Inventory management and analytics

Keep inventory answers current by syncing availability signals from supplier documents and shipment updates into your ERP, with analytics your team can act on.

For supply chain and purchasing teams quoting stock from stale inventory data.

The pain

Inventory truth lives in the ERP, but the signals that change it live in documents: order acknowledgments with revised ship dates, shipping notices, backorder emails, receipt discrepancies. When those signals sit unread in an inbox, reps quote stock they do not have and buyers expedite stock that is already on the water.

How it works

  • Inbox intake: supplier acknowledgments, shipping notices, and backorder communications are captured as they arrive.
  • Extract and classify: promised dates, shipped quantities, and item references are extracted and mapped to open POs and inventory records.
  • Validate and reconcile: incoming signals are reconciled against expected receipts; slips, shortages, and substitutions are surfaced to the buyer responsible.
  • Sync and analyze: your ERP reflects real-time availability, and analytics surface the patterns: which suppliers slip, which items chronically backorder, where safety stock is mis-set.

What you get

  • Availability answers grounded in live supplier signals, not last week's sync.
  • Slipping POs surfaced to buyers before customers feel the shortage.
  • Supplier performance analytics built from actual document history.
  • Fewer emergency expedites driven by stale inventory data.

FAQ

Common questions about inventory management and analytics

Where do the availability signals come from?

From the documents your suppliers already send (order acknowledgments with revised ship dates, shipping notices, backorder emails, and receipt discrepancies), extracted and reconciled against open POs as they arrive.

Does it replace our ERP's inventory module?

No. Your ERP stays the system of record; this keeps it current by syncing document-borne signals into it and surfacing the slips, shortages, and substitutions your buyers need to act on.

What do the analytics actually show?

The patterns hiding in your document history (which suppliers slip, which items chronically backorder, and where safety stock is mis-set), so planning decisions rest on evidence instead of anecdote.
