Platform · Orders & Bookings

Every PO,
every line,
in one queue.

Issue POs, track line items, manage change orders, and hand them off to a freight booking — all without spreadsheets or chasing supplier emails. The orders module is where a shipment program actually starts.

How orders flow

From issued
to handed-off to freight.

Every PO moves through the same five states, with approvals, acknowledgments and change orders captured at each step. No more "which version of the sheet are we on?"

01

Issued.

Draft a PO from a supplier record or upload from your ERP. Line items carry HTS codes and target ex-works terms from day one, so the downstream freight booking inherits the right data.

02

Acknowledged.

Supplier acknowledges or counters on quantity, price and ready-date. Discrepancies are flagged against the original PO for your buyer to approve, decline or revise.

03

In production.

Weekly production updates from the supplier feed into the PO timeline. QC inspections (sourced through us or your own team) attach to the line items they apply to.

04

Ready & nominated.

PO is flagged ready for pickup; your team nominates it for an ocean, air or truck booking. Dimensions, weights and ex-works address pre-populate the freight quote.

05

Handed off to freight.

Booked POs convert into shipments. Line-items roll into containers, AWBs or trailers; the audit log shows which PO line sits on which BL, for every shipment you'll ever run.

What the module does

More than a list.
A full PO lifecycle.

Each feature below is live in the module — no "coming soon" tags, no roadmap placeholders. If your team needs something the platform doesn't cover, tell us during the walkthrough and we'll scope it.

Change orders

Amend quantity, price, ready-date or incoterms on any live PO. Every change carries a reason code, an approver, and a linked copy of the previous version. Audit-ready by default.

Line-item tracking

Split one PO across multiple shipments. Line 3 flies while lines 1–2, 4–12 sail. The portal keeps the whole picture in sync so nothing is double-booked or forgotten.

Multi-supplier POs

Combine sub-assemblies from two or three suppliers under one buyer-facing PO. Supplier-specific sections ship on their own cadences; your buyer sees one document.

Approvals workflow

Role-based approvals with configurable thresholds — value, category, supplier country. Your head of sourcing sees the PO before the supplier does, every time.

Audit log

Every field change, attachment upload, approval and status shift is logged with user, timestamp and source (web, API, EDI, bulk upload). Exportable to CSV or Parquet for your compliance team.

API & EDI hooks

REST endpoints for create/read/update on POs and line items; EDI 850/855/856/810 for retailer and ERP integrations. Webhook fires on every state change with HMAC-signed payload.

What's next

Orders are
the start of the shipment.

Once a PO is ready, the same shipment record carries through booking, tracking, documents and invoicing. The modules below are the rest of the portal.
