Store Items
Maintain the item information used by the stores and wider operation.
Material control that supports maintenance and wider operational work.
Manage purchase and store requisitions, goods received, suppliers, inventory, store issues, stocktakes, bills of material, cost information, budgets and operational transactions.
Material Control overview
Move from requisition and receiving into stores, inventory and operational cost visibility.
The module covers more than spare-parts stock. It provides practical controls around purchasing, receiving, store transactions, inventory and related operational records.
Requisitions and receiving
Control the path from an identified material need to received stock.
Purchase and store requisitions provide a structured starting point for material demand, while receiving records preserve what entered the operation.
- Purchase Requisitions.
- Store Requisitions.
- Goods Receive Notes.
- Supplier records.
- Purchase and receipt reporting.

Inventory management
Keep store items, movement and physical stock aligned.
Inventory controls provide the operational detail required to know what is held, where it is held and how it moves through the business.
Store Issues
Record material leaving the store and the operational context for the issue.
Stock Take
Support physical stock verification and the review of inventory differences.
Bill of Material
Define material structures used by equipment, products or operational work.
Warehouse and Locations
Organise inventory according to the implemented stores and location structure.
Inventory Reporting
Review stock, movements and the information required for operational decisions.
Ledgers, budgets and transactions
Retain operational cost context alongside the material record.
The implemented module provides areas for general-ledger references, warehouses, budget dates, budgets, projects, transactions, creditor reconciliation and customer records.
General Ledger
Retain the operational ledger references used by the implemented material workflow.
Warehouse
Organise stores and inventory according to the deployed location structure.
Budget Dates
Control the periods used by the module's budget process.
Budget
Capture and review the applicable operational budget information.
Projects & Transactions
Retain project and transaction context where configured.
Reconciliation Context
Support the implemented creditor and customer transaction workflows.
These controls are presented as part of the implemented dMS operational module. dMS should not be positioned as a replacement for a full accounting or ERP platform unless that scope is specifically confirmed.

Maintenance and material integration
Connect the parts used to the maintenance work they supported.
When Material Control is implemented with dMS Maintenance and Reliability, stores and maintenance teams can retain the operational relationship between material demand, issue, work execution and equipment history.
- Reference materials required for maintenance work.
- Retain issue and consumption context.
- Use bills of material to support recurring requirements.
- Improve visibility between planners, artisans and stores.
Practical implementation
Bring purchasing, stores and maintenance material context together.
Review the requisition, receiving, inventory, budget and transaction controls your operation needs.
