Purchasing, shortages & stock

No more missing parts in assembly

Typical problems in project purchasing

Ordered twice or not at all

Without a shared view of demand and orders, both happen.

Long-lead items noticed too late

Drives and controllers with six weeks lead time push the delivery date.

Stock levels are wrong

Withdrawals are not booked, and the stock in the system is fiction.

From demand to picking

Shortage list per project

Demand from the parts list minus free stock, reservations and quantities already ordered. With need-by date from the schedule, preferred supplier and price.

  • Long-lead items are ordered ahead of the parts list
  • Minimum stock for standard parts
  • Order proposal with one click per supplier

Orders and goods receipt

Orders go to the supplier as PDF by email – optionally with the drawings of exactly the ordered revision. Partial deliveries are booked at goods receipt, stock is valued at moving average cost.

Stock with reservation and picking

Parts are reserved per project and picked assembly by assembly. Every movement is an immutable booking – corrections are new bookings, nothing gets lost.

Stock app with QR scanning

With the "MaschPilot Lager" app for Android and iPhone the warehouse scans QR labels with the phone camera and books straight to the project. Sign-in with fingerprint or Face ID. Included in every plan.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need barcode scanners?
No. The stock app uses the phone camera. Handheld scanners that act as a keyboard work as well.
Can we print labels?
Yes, QR labels for selected parts directly from MaschPilot.
How are supplier prices kept?
Several suppliers per part with price, lead time, minimum quantity and order number; one is preferred.
