Materials and inventory. Live stock on every site.

Record what arrives, what is used and what moves between sites. Stock is always current, and low stock is flagged before a pour stops.

The problem

Nobody is sure what was received, used or moved, so material runs out mid-pour.

For: Site in-charge, project leads and owners

Material stock for a fictional demo site: a banner saying one material is running low, copper wire marked Low, and cement, bricks, M-sand, tiles and other materials with stock, average rate and value
Stock on site with a low-stock alert

How it works

Materials & inventory in three steps.

01

Receive

Record the material, quantity and vendor. Create the purchase bill at the same time if you like.

02

Use, transfer or return

Use on site, move to another project, or return to the vendor.

03

Watch the stock

Stock below the reorder level shows a red “low” badge and appears in the daily summary.

FAQ

About materials & inventory.

Can site staff record material offline?

Yes. Material used and received (without a bill) save offline and sync later. Transfers need a connection.

How does low stock work?

Each material has a reorder level. When stock on a project falls below it, the item gets a red badge and is listed in the owner’s daily summary email.

Can a delivery create the purchase bill?

Yes. When you receive material with a vendor and rate, you can create the purchase bill in the same step.
