Procurement and receiving that keeps suppliers honest and kitchens stocked
From an outlet asking for stock to the supplier being paid, Buddhi keeps every step on record: what was requested, ordered, approved, received, rejected, returned and billed.
What it does
Indents to purchase orders
Outlets and kitchens raise indents. Purchasers turn them into purchase orders to the right supplier at the agreed price.
Approvals by value and role
Set approval limits by amount, outlet and role. The person who raised an order can never approve it.
Contracts and price checks
Keep agreed prices per supplier. Orders and invoices above the agreed price are flagged before anyone pays.
Goods receipts against the order
Receive what arrived against what was ordered. Rejected goods are recorded separately and never become usable stock.
Returns to vendor
Send back damaged or wrong goods with a return note, and track the credit until it is settled.
Invoice matching
Match supplier invoices to orders and receipts. Quantity and price differences are raised as exceptions for finance to resolve.
Questions
Can we set our own approval rules?
Yes. Approval bands, tolerances and who approves what are settings for your organisation, not code changes.
Can storekeepers receive goods on a tablet?
Yes. The floor app scans supplier barcodes and QR labels, works offline and records the receipt time when the goods actually arrived.
Does Buddhi send purchase orders to suppliers?
Yes. Approved orders can be emailed to the supplier, or marked as sent if you place them another way.
