Distribution & inventory

Goods move.
So does the record.

Purchasing, receiving, warehousing, transfers, customer orders, deliveries, returns, and exceptions. Every one of those is a hand-off between two people — and every hand-off is where visibility usually disappears.

Fint keeps the people involved inside the transaction, not cc'd on an email about it.

Heard on the floor

This conversation
already happens.

None of this is new work. It's the work your team already does by message, radio, and phone call — and then re-types into a system later, or doesn't.

"Did the container clear customs?"
"That pallet's short two cartons."
"Customer says they never got it."
"Can we pull this order forward?"
"Bin 14 doesn't match the system."
"Return came back damaged — do we credit it?"

Fint connects those conversations to the business transactions underneath them.

A day in the operation

One day in distribution & inventory.

Nothing below is a separate administrative task. Each one is the moment the work happened, recorded by the person who did it.

  1. Inbound

    The trailer backs in

    Receiving opens the PO as a message. What's expected is right there. What actually arrives — including the two short pallets — is what gets posted.

  2. Putaway

    Stock finds a home

    The move is confirmed by the person who made it, so the bin in the system is the bin in the aisle.

  3. Outbound

    The order ships

    Pick checks, packing confirmations, and the carrier hand-off all live on the order, not in three different inboxes.

  4. After

    Something comes back

    A refused delivery or damaged return starts as a message from the driver and ends as a credit decision — with the photo still attached.

MessageForms

The forms this industry actually needs.

These ship as part of the built ERP or get shaped to your process. If your business has a step that matters, it can become a MessageForm.

Goods receipt

Receive against the PO, with shortages and damage documented.

Putaway & bin move

Where it went, who moved it, and when.

Stock transfer

Warehouse to warehouse, confirmed on both ends.

Cycle count

Reconcile what's on the shelf against what's on the books.

Pick & pack check

Verify an order before it leaves the building.

Delivery exception

Missing, damaged, refused, or substituted — captured at the drop.

Return / RMA

Take it back, inspect it, and decide the credit in one thread.

Vendor issue

Short shipments and quality problems, with the conversation attached.

What changes

Same operation. Different record.

Found at the dock, claimed the same morning.

Today

"Who moved that pallet?"

With Fint

The move carries a name and a time.

Today

Counts on paper, variances typed up later.

With Fint

The count posts the variance as it's taken.

Today

Delivery disputes with no evidence.

With Fint

Photo, timestamp, and signature on the record.

At the source

Exceptions with evidence

The person who saw the problem is the person who recorded it, while they were looking at it.

Both ends

Transfers that reconcile

Sending and receiving locations both confirm, so inventory stops drifting.

One thread

Order to credit

Purchase, receipt, exception, claim, and credit stay connected instead of scattered.
