SUPPLY CHAIN SYNCHRONIZATION

Close the gap between receiving and inventory

When raw materials arrive at your dock, the clock starts. Turn supplier POs, packing lists, MTRs, and invoices into clean data synced to your ERP — before the backlog kills your production schedule.

Integrates natively with manufacturing ERPs:

SAP ECC / S/4HANA
ORCL ERP Cloud / E-Business
D365 Finance & Operations
EPIC Kinetic / iScala
INFOR CloudSuite Industrial
QAD Redzone / EE

Plus native API and SQL integration for custom systems

// THE FINANCIAL IMPACT

Receiving delays and AP reconciliation are bleeding your margins

Your receiving dock is the choke point. Supplier documents arrive as PDFs — every vendor has a different format. Your team manually keys data into the ERP, chasing discrepancies while production waits for materials that are already on the floor.

Phantom Inventory Crisis

Material arrives at the dock but isn't in the system yet. Planning shows zero stock. Production puts in a rush order. Then the receipt is processed — now you have double stock and tied up cash. Classic phantom inventory.

3-Way Matching Nightmare

AP can't pay until PO, packing list, and invoice match. One quantity discrepancy or unit-of-measure error = manual reconciliation. Suppliers get paid late. $320+ per error in investigation time.

Lost Traceability

Mill Test Reports with heat numbers and certifications sit in a file folder somewhere. When quality needs to trace a batch, it's a manual scavenger hunt. One failed audit = production holds and customer rejections.

The Receiving Speed Limit

Your dock moves at the speed of manual typing. 15 minutes per receipt means your team processes ~32 receipts/day per clerk. Peak season = backlog = expediting = premium freight costs.

// ANNUAL COST OF MANUAL RECEIVING

Daily receipts 200
Avg. processing time 15 min
Clerks required 6.25 FTE
Annual labor cost $562,500
Error rate (5.1%) 3,726 errors/year
TOTAL ANNUAL COST $754,800+

// COMMON RECEIVING ERRORS

PHANTOM Phantom inventory from unprocessed receipts Stockouts, production delays
UOM Unit of measure mismatch Wrong quantities, over/under payment
PRICE Invoice vs PO price variance AP holds, payment delays
TRACE Lost traceability / heat numbers Failed audits, quality holds
