Buying on gut feeling costs you money twice
Ordering on gut feeling
Without up-to-date numbers, you guess how much you need.
Too much or just not enough
Too much stock costs money, too little costs customers.
Supplier prices hard to compare
Comparing quotes from different suppliers side by side takes time.
Order proposals based on real numbers
Odoo proposes orders itself, based on your minimum stock levels, open sales orders and lead times. You send requests for quotation to several suppliers at once from a single screen.
Compare supplier prices in black and white
You send one request for quotation to several suppliers at once, straight from Odoo. You compare the answers on the same basis, including tiered pricing: discounts per quantity purchased. You record fixed agreements in a blanket order and call them off in parts.
You only pay for what you ordered and received
On delivery you check off what comes in, and your stock is updated right away. When the invoice arrives, Odoo automatically compares the order, the receipt and the invoice: three-way matching. If something differs, you see it before you pay.
You negotiate with the numbers in hand
All orders sit in one system. You see per supplier and per product what you buy and at what price. You take that overview into your next price negotiation, without updating an Excel file first.
Purchase works together with the rest of Odoo
Purchase, inventory and accounting run on one platform and the same numbers. Enter once, correct everywhere.
Inventory and logistics
Your minimum stock levels drive the order proposals. Every receipt updates your stock right away.
Accounting
Vendor bills arrive where your orders already are. Three-way matching happens automatically.
Sales and invoicing
What you sell determines what you order. Odoo calculates with your open sales orders, not with estimates.
What business owners ask us about Odoo Purchase
Odoo does not guess, it calculates. Order proposals come from your minimum stock levels, your open sales orders and the lead times you set per supplier. That basis has to be right, and that is setup work. We do it together with you during the configuration, with your real numbers.
Yes. Your supplier does not need to install anything: requests for quotation and orders simply go out by e-mail as a PDF. You or your buyer enter the prices that come back in Odoo. From then on the system calculates with them, including for the next order proposal.
Honestly: order proposals are only as good as your stock figures. That is why we usually set up Purchase and Inventory together. In the diagnosis we look at what is already right and what has to come first. You can read how that project unfolds at our approach.
