What does the Dino ERP purchasing module cover?

It follows a purchase from need to payment. A purchase request is raised and checked against budget, RFQs go to suppliers, quotes are compared, a purchase order is approved and sent, goods are received, and the supplier bill is matched. Purchase returns and drop-ship or back-order flows are included.

• Requests with budget checks
• RFQs and quote comparison
• Purchase orders with budget control and approvals
• Goods receipts and purchase returns
• Drop-ship and back-order flows

How do purchase order approvals work?

Purchase orders route through multi-step approval workflows set by amount, branch and department, with per-role approval limits. Separation-of-duties rules can block users from approving their own documents. Every decision is recorded in the audit trail.

Does Dino ERP do a three-way match?

Yes, as a visible match status. Each bill shows whether it agrees with the purchase order and the goods receipt, using tolerances you set. The match does not block payment on its own; it makes variances visible before you pay.

What accounting entries do receipts and bills create?

A goods receipt debits inventory and credits goods received not invoiced (GRNI). The supplier bill debits GRNI plus recoverable tax and credits accounts payable. A purchase return reverses stock against GRNI, and its debit note reverses the payable.

Can Dino ERP manage consignment stock and supplier performance?

Yes. Consignment stock can be received, consumed and settled, including settlement import. Supplier performance and rating are tracked so buyers can compare suppliers.

Can suppliers interact with Dino ERP directly?

Yes, through the supplier portal. Suppliers can acknowledge purchase orders, send advance shipping notices (ASNs) and submit invoices, using their own portal login with its own roles and branding.
