The flow
- Request and order from a supplier.
- Receive goods at a branch: stock goes up at the landed cost.
- Enter the supplier bill: Ziira matches it to the order and the receipt (the three-way match).
- Pay the bill; payables and the ledger update automatically.
Supplier returns, credit notes and refunds are supported, as is reconciling a supplier statement.
Guarded supplier details
Supplier bank details are stored encrypted, and changing them is a controlled action. Intelligence can flag changed supplier bank details and possible duplicate bills or payments.
Prices and margins
Cost and price history live with each product. When a supplier's cost rises and your selling price does not, Intelligence flags the margin squeeze, and at action level 3 it can prepare a price update for a person to approve. Nothing changes without approval.
