Feature Focus: Stock Management Module for Uniform Suppliers

The Stock Management Module in Smart Red revolutionises how uniform suppliers serve their customers with powerful inventory control capabilities. Whilst some of your customers want their staff to order from their suppliers directly, there are others who want to hold their own stock, order in bulk for discounts/minimising delivery costs, YET implement allowances to manage their budgets.

The Stock Management module for Smart Red can do just that!

This comprehensive module streamlines bulk ordering, allocation tracking, and inventory maintenance through four key functional areas.

Bulk Order Processing

Smart Red's bulk order system empowers suppliers to efficiently handle large-scale uniform requests. Customers can quickly create and submit substantial orders through an intuitive interface that streamlines the entire procurement process.

The module automatically lists all available items according to the user (restrictions can be put in place via location, authority and/or company catalogues), calculates accurate pricing with volume discounts, and generates detailed order summaries. This eliminates calculation errors and ensures transparent communication between suppliers and their customers.

Stock Inventory Management

Smart Red's dynamic module offers flexibility for managing uniform stock across multiple locations. The module seamlessly facilitates transfers between warehouses or customer sites with comprehensive tracking of all movement. During stock takes, users can quickly reconcile physical counts with system records through intuitive adjustment tools that document variances and automatically update inventory levels. This functionality ensures inventory accuracy while maintaining a complete audit trail of all stock movements and modifications, giving customers unprecedented control over their uniform assets.

Allocation Management

The allocation tracking system allows organisations to buy in bulk and take advantage of the allowances based on employee roles, departments, or time periods. Administrators can:

• Define custom allocation rules for different personnel categories

• Track real-time usage against established allowances

• Receive automated alerts when allocations approach limits

• Allocate items, from existing stored stock, to all staff

This functionality ensures fair distribution of uniform resources while maintaining cost control measures.

Minimum Stock Thresholds

Smart Red's stock module also has a safeguard system that helps companies maintain optimal stock levels at all times. The module features:

• Customisable minimum threshold settings for each product

• Automated low-stock alerts to prevent stockouts

• Auto-populates baskets according to minimum/maximum stock levels

• One-click reordering

These capabilities eliminate the risk of understocking while preventing excessive inventory investment.

Reporting & Analytics

The robust reporting suite transforms inventory data into actionable business intelligence. Companies gain access to real-time stock visibility across multiple locations which enable data-driven decisions about purchasing patterns, product popularity, and inventory optimisation.

By integrating these four functional areas, Smart Red's Stock Management Module delivers a comprehensive solution that enhances efficiency, reduces costs, and improves customer satisfaction throughout the uniform supply chain.
