Automated Reordering

Low stock detected. Purchase order triggered. Automatically.

Configure minimum stock levels per item per location. When stock hits the minimum, ZenoHosp generates a reorder alert and optionally auto-creates a purchase order to the preferred supplier. The store manager approves it. The ICU never runs out of IV cannulas mid-shift.

  • Minimum stock levels configured per item per location
  • Reorder alert at minimum — purchase order auto-generated
  • Preferred supplier and standard order quantity per item
  • PO approval workflow — store manager reviews before dispatch
  • GRN matching — received quantities verified against PO

Low Stock Alert

Alert fires before stock reaches critical levels.

Auto Purchase Order

PO created to preferred supplier automatically.

PO Approval Workflow

Reviewed and approved before dispatch.

GRN Matching

Received goods verified against purchase order.

Set it once. Never think about stockouts again.

Each inventory item has a minimum stock level configured per location. When stock falls to the minimum, ZenoHosp generates an alert and optionally creates a purchase order to the preferred supplier for the configured standard order quantity. The store manager gets a WhatsApp notification.

  • Min/max stock levels per item per location — configured once
  • Preferred supplier linked to each item for auto-PO generation
  • Standard order quantity per item — reduces manual decision-making
  • WhatsApp notification to store manager when PO is auto-generated

PO generated. Manager reviews. Supplier receives.

Auto-generated purchase orders go into a pending approval queue. The store manager reviews the items, quantities, and supplier — adjusts if needed — and approves. The approved PO is sent to the supplier. ZenoHosp tracks delivery against the PO.

  • Auto-generated POs visible in approval queue immediately
  • Store manager reviews and approves before dispatch to supplier
  • PO can be edited before approval — adjust quantities or supplier
  • Approved PO sent to supplier via email or WhatsApp

Goods received. Quantities verified. Stock updated.

When goods arrive, the receiving clerk scans or enters the received quantities against the purchase order. Discrepancies are flagged — received less than ordered, damaged goods, or wrong items. Accepted quantities are added to stock immediately.

  • Receive against purchase order — discrepancies flagged automatically
  • Barcode scanning for fast GRN entry
  • Partial deliveries handled — remaining balance tracked
  • Batch number and expiry date captured at receipt

"We used to have emergency purchase orders every week — usually at night when someone discovered the stock was zero. Since ZenoHosp, we've had zero emergency orders in 5 months. Everything is planned."

Frequently asked questions

How does automatic reordering work in ZenoHosp?

Each item has a configured minimum stock level. When stock falls to the minimum, ZenoHosp generates a reorder alert and optionally creates a purchase order to the preferred supplier for the standard order quantity. The store manager approves before the PO is sent.

Can the store manager review and modify the auto-generated PO?

Yes. Auto-generated POs go into a pending approval queue. The store manager can adjust quantities, change the supplier, or cancel before approving and sending to the supplier.

How are received goods matched to purchase orders?

When goods arrive, the store staff receive against the purchase order in ZenoHosp. Discrepancies — short deliveries, wrong items — are flagged. Accepted quantities update stock immediately with batch number and expiry date captured.
