How it works

One connected workflow, from request to margin

Every step links to the one before it, so information is entered once and stays consistent.
  1. Step 1

    Request

    Log incoming requests from email or Excel against a vessel, port and delivery date. Lines are matched to your catalogue using ISSA codes.

  2. Step 2

    Compare suppliers

    View every supplier's rate for each line, spot the best price, and choose suppliers per item.

  3. Step 3

    Quote

    Apply configurable margins, check the quoted total and margin, then send a branded PDF by email or print it.

  4. Step 4

    Purchase

    When the customer confirms, convert the quotation into purchase orders grouped by supplier — no re-keying.

  5. Step 5

    Invoice

    Generate the customer invoice from the confirmed quotation, in the currency you quoted.

  6. Step 6

    Review margin

    Compare quoted versus purchased costs and review margin by order, customer or period in reports.
