9 groups · 33 sections · 164 screens

Master Data

What you stock, where it sits, how it is measured, and how it is configured.

Master Data 2

What you stock and who you buy it from.

Units & Packaging 7

What a quantity actually means, what it is packed in, and the numbered pallet standing on the floor.

Network 6

Where the business operates and where stock sits: location, warehouse, lane, shelf, bin.

Product Configurator 3

Configure to order, assemble to order, make to order and engineer to order. A model asks questions, rules constrain the answers, and resolving a configuration produces an item, a bill of material or an engineering request.

Inventory Structure 1

The stocking level between a warehouse and a bin.

Sourcing

Ask the market, agree the terms, and keep the supplier honest.

Strategic Sourcing 6

Ask the market, score what comes back, and award it on the weights declared beforehand. A new event grows out of the last one.

Suppliers 5

Onboarding through performance and risk — who may be bought from, and how well they do.

Contracts 4

Authored from a template, held in one place, and enforced on the prices they fix.

Collaboration 3

What the supplier says is coming, what they confirm, and the conversation about it.

Direct Materials 2

Long-running agreements, the schedule released against them, and what the supplier has been told to expect.

Purchasing

Demand through commitment, receipt, invoice and payment.

Purchasing 2

Demand through to commitment and receipt, against a cost center and a budget.

Buying 3

Catalogs, the policy that says how to buy, and receipt of what cannot be counted into a bin.

Invoices & Payment 5

Capture, match against the order and the receipt, and propose what to pay.

Travel & Expense 5

What was approved before the trip, what was spent on it, and which rule each line broke.

Inventory

Perpetual stock, individual units, and what to reorder.

Inventory 3

Perpetual stock at bin, lot, and status grain.

Traceability 2

Individual units and everywhere they have been.

Warehouse

The structure of the building, the work that happens in it, and the trailers outside.

Warehouse Structure 7

The character of each area, the doors goods come through, and who does the work.

Warehouse Execution 8

Demand released together, work bundled for one person, and the moves that actually happen.

Yard 2

Trailers on site, which door they are on, and how long they have been standing.

Goods Movement 9

Scan it in, out or around. Barcode, RFID or a photograph of the delivery note — what gets typed is the exception, and it is counted.

Warehouse Systems 2

Another system already runs the warehouse. Map its vocabulary to this one and the movements flow both ways.

Transportation

What goes on the vehicle, who moves it, where it has got to, and what it cost.

Load Building 5

What goes on one vehicle and where on the deck each pallet sits — drawn, so a planner can see whether it fits before promising a date.

Transportation 11

Who moves it, what they charge, the instruction they are given, and where it has got to.

Maps & Geography 4

Where everything is, in coordinates rather than in prose — and the live picture of what is moving between those places.

Third-Party Logistics 3

FedEx, UPS, DHL and the rest: what the platform knows how to speak, the accounts it speaks through, and the labels it buys.

Freight Forwarding 4

International: a house bill under a master bill, the boxes, the customs entry, and the spread the business is actually made on.

Freight Settlement 1

The carrier bill against what was agreed. Half of a freight invoice is usually accessorials, and an accrual that ignores them is wrong by half.

Planning

What will be wanted, what would have to happen for it to be met, and who does it when.

Demand Planning 6

What we think will be wanted, who disagreed, and how close last quarter turned out to be.

Supply Planning 4

What would have to happen for that demand to be met, infinite or finite, and the exceptions a planner actually works from.

Capacity & Scheduling 6

What has a finite amount of time in it, how much of it is already spoken for, and which machine does what at which hour.

Reporting

The catalog over everything above.

Reporting 2

Executive, management, operational and audit reporting over this module’s records.
