Add freight and landed cost can change which price is best

What it does

It can hold your suppliers and their price lists, send a request to many of them at once, bring the answers back comparable, raise the purchase order, chase the acknowledgement and book the goods in, all beside your sales orders rather than in a separate system.

  • Give your customers a price built on what you actually pay today and a date you can commit to, because the buying and the selling share one set of numbers.
  • With Kabaido Stock on, receipts land in the ledger, on order quantities are visible and reorder points become actions.

See it working

Source's buy side in four screens: three stock lines under their reorder points; one request for quotation sent to three suppliers by email, every answer in; a purchase order the award raised, acknowledged and expected on the quoted lead time; and another received in full, its goods receipt posted and the supplier's invoice matched, so the order has closed.

In more detail

Suppliers on record

A supplier master beside the customer master, with price lists that feed cost wherever a margin is calculated.

Source's supplier record for Supplier A: approved, a seven day lead time, and the payment terms, freight model and duty that feed landed cost.

Demonstration data

One request, many suppliers

Outbound requests for quotation at scale with comparable answers, and supplier replies captured by the same email agent that reads customer mail.

The page Supplier B answers on, opened from the request email for RFQ-26-00001-02: the 3 lines asked for, a unit price and lead time typed against each and the answer submitted, £1,152.10 at the quantities asked. It shows the supplier nothing of any other supplier's answer.

Demonstration data

Buying beside selling

Purchase orders sit in the same Orders area as sales orders, with goods receipts and invoice matching.

The 3 purchase orders one request became, in the same Orders area as sales orders: each with its state, its share received and its supplier invoice matched against the order and the receipt, 1 of them flagged.
