Buy (Procurement)

Managing your supply chain shouldn’t feel like a chore. The Buy module in Sevenledger is your central command center for all your outgoing expenses and stock replenishment. We built this to perfectly bridge the gap between your warehouse team (who know what you need) and your finance team (who track what you owe).

Whether you’re restocking raw materials, stocking up on office supplies, or handling complex returns, this section keeps your procurement beautifully organized and your budget right on track.

How It All Works Together

In Sevenledger, procurement is so much more than just filing paperwork—it’s a beautifully connected workflow that keeps everyone on the same page. Here is the typical journey:

  1. Plan (Purchase Order): Start by creating a Purchase Order to tell a vendor exactly what you need. This instantly lets your warehouse know that new stock is on the way.
  2. Receive (Shipment): When the delivery truck arrives, simply “Receive” the items against your original Purchase Order. This automatically updates your Inventory counts in real-time.
  3. Record (Bill): Once the official vendor invoice arrives, you can convert that Purchase Order right into a Bill. This updates your Accounts Payable ledger so your financial team knows what’s owed.
  4. Settle (Payment): Finally, just record the outgoing payment to close the loop!

Why Do We Separate Orders and Bills?

Great question! It comes down to keeping your teams aligned while letting them focus on what they do best:

  • Orders drive your Operations team (“How much stock do we have coming in?”).
  • Bills drive your Finance team (“Who exactly do we owe money to?”).

By keeping them legally distinct but tightly linked, Sevenledger guarantees your stock counts remain perfectly accurate (even if you haven’t paid the bill yet), and your financial reports are spot-on (even if the stock is still on the truck!).
