Warehouse Dispatch and Electronic Material Issues
Replace paper slips with a web workflow that records material requests, approvals, preparation, and delivery. Every movement remains traceable from the person who entered it to the person who received it.

- Standalone mode
- Internal use
Complete visibility from request through delivery
The warehouse issue slip, now electronic
REQUESTAPPROVALPREPARATIONDELIVERYThe real problem
A signed paper slip is not enough to control what leaves the warehouse.
Paper requests
Slips get lost, arrive incomplete, and force employees to chase signatures before receiving what they need.
Approvals without detail
The manager cannot easily approve or reject specific lines, and there is no clear evidence of the decision.
Issues without traceability
It is not always clear who requested, entered, approved, and physically received the material.
Dispatch workflow
From an employee's need to a controlled delivery.
Each role participates at the right moment, while the system keeps all evidence.
Request entry
Any authorized employee, or a designated person in each department, enters the required items and quantities.
Control and costing data
The request includes the warehouse, cost center, and any other accounting or operational values required by the company.
Email approval
The immediate manager receives the request and can approve or reject one, several, or all lines.
Warehouse preparation
After approval, the warehouse clerk receives a notification to pick and prepare the approved materials.
Delivery to the designated person
The receiver can be different from the requester or data-entry user. The system records who received each item.
Inventory issue and cost
The movement updates stock. Cost can come automatically from the ERP, use the latest cost, or be entered manually.
Role-based traceability
Know who did what in every movement.
The person who needs, enters, approves, and receives the material can be different.
Who requests
An employee, mechanic, office worker, or any role that needs the material.
Who enters
The requester or a person designated as responsible for the department.
Who approves
The immediate manager or the person defined by the company's approval rules.
Who receives
The person who physically collects the items, even if they did not create the request.
Warehouse operations
More than material issues.
The functions needed to manage movements, stock, and internal supply.
Material issues
Web request, line-level approvals, preparation, and delivery confirmation.
Purchase receipts
Record received goods and update stock through the warehouse team.
Inventory adjustments
Direct stock increases or decreases, available only to users with the required permission.
Warehouse transfers
Controlled movement of materials between locations, recording both source and destination.
Minimum and maximum levels
Configurable levels by item and warehouse to maintain healthy stock.
Reorder point
Identify items that must be replenished before operations are affected.
Inventory reports
Review movements, current stock, and availability by warehouse.
Restricted visibility
Each user can view stock only for the warehouses they are authorized to access.
Email notifications
Alerts to approvers and warehouse staff so each request advances without manual follow-up.
With or without an ERP
Integrated with SAP Business One or completely standalone.
With SAP B1, stock, costs, and movements can synchronize with the ERP. The solution can also operate independently with its own catalogs, warehouses, costs, and reports.

Frequently asked questions
Before scheduling a demo.
Do I need SAP Business One to use the system?+
No. It can work connected to SAP Business One or operate completely independently from any ERP.
Can individual request lines be approved or rejected?+
Yes. The manager can approve or reject one, several, or all lines. Warehouse staff prepare only what was approved.
Who can request materials?+
The company decides whether any employee can submit requests or only an authorized person in each department.
Does the receiver have to be the person who made the request?+
No. The system separately records who requested, entered, approved, and physically received the items.
How is the cost of material issues calculated?+
It usually comes automatically from the ERP. The system can also use the latest available cost or allow controlled manual entry.
