Unified Features

Core functionality that works seamlessly across all steel manufacturing industries

01
Multi-Warehouse & Location Management

Manage multiple warehouses and storage locations with independent inventory tracking. Define warehouse hierarchy, location codes, and storage capacity for organized inventory management across facilities.

02
Bin & Storage Location Tracking

Track inventory at bin and storage location level for precise material location. Support for rack, shelf, and bin numbering systems with visual location mapping for faster material retrieval.

03
QR Code & Barcode Scanning

Use QR codes and barcodes for fast and accurate inventory transactions. Support for mobile scanning, batch scanning, and integration with handheld devices for efficient warehouse operations.

04
Lot, Heat & Batch Tracking

Track materials by lot numbers, heat numbers, or batch numbers for complete traceability. Maintain lot history, expiry dates, and quality status for each lot with forward and backward traceability.

05
FIFO/FEFO/LIFO Strategies

Implement First-In-First-Out (FIFO), First-Expiry-First-Out (FEFO), or Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) inventory strategies. Automatically suggest material issues based on selected strategy for optimal inventory management.

06
Cycle Count & Physical Inventory

Schedule and execute cycle counting and physical inventory verification. Compare physical counts with system records, identify discrepancies, and process adjustments with approval workflows.

07
Stock Adjustment & Transfers

Process stock adjustments for inventory corrections, write-offs, and transfers between warehouses. Maintain complete audit trail of all inventory movements with reason codes and approvals.

08
RM/WIP/FG Visibility

Get real-time visibility of raw material, work-in-progress, and finished goods inventory across all locations. Monitor stock levels, identify shortages, and optimize inventory investment.

09
Inventory Valuation & Reporting

Calculate inventory valuation using standard cost, weighted average, or FIFO methods. Generate inventory valuation reports, aging analysis, and slow-moving inventory reports for better inventory control.

10
Material Reservation & Allocation

Reserve and allocate materials for specific production orders, sales orders, or projects. Track reserved quantities, available quantities, and prevent over-allocation of inventory.

11
Inventory Reorder Point & Safety Stock

Set reorder points and safety stock levels for automatic replenishment. Generate purchase requisitions when stock levels fall below reorder points and maintain optimal inventory levels.
