Purchasing

Buy well, and receive exactly what arrived

Raise purchase orders to your suppliers, receive them in parts, capture batches and expiry at the dock, and add freight and duty as landed cost — so your cost of goods is the real one.

Receiving

Receive exactly what arrived

Open a purchase order and receive what's on the truck — all of it or part of it, into the location you choose. Stock lands the moment you confirm.

How purchasing works →
Landed cost

Costs that include getting it here

Add freight, duty and other charges to a purchase, and they flow into the cost of the stock they brought. A late supplier invoice corrects your costs from its own date — history is never rewritten.

  • Freight and duty as landed cost
  • Late invoices correct, never rewrite
  • Cost of goods recognised when it ships
