Inventory and Purchase Management

Valuation, Consumption and Purchase Analysis

What the stock is worth, and where the money goes. Valuation, consumption and purchase analysis turn movements into management information: what is in the stores, what each department used and what the property buys from whom. This part of the module is being extended.

An illustration with made-up data, not a photograph of a customer’s system. Some parts of this module are still growing, and the labels below show which.

The problem

What goes wrong without it

  • No view of stock value at month end.
  • Food cost that cannot be explained by consumption.
  • Spend by supplier assembled by hand.

The result

What changes with CloudSon

  • A defensible stock value.
  • Food cost understood, not just reported.
  • Better purchasing decisions.
