Workflow

How Materials Move Across Your Operations

Follow a single material request from field submission to physical issuance. This is what your team's day looks like on FieldMaster AI, where WhatsApp chaos becomes digital control.

Setup

One-Time Setup for your Material Management System

Your office team configures the system once at the start, then the field works within those rules. No constant adjustments needed.

Categories

Define every material in your operation

SKU categories and stock masters show available quantities across all your repositories. No guessing what's in stock.

Warehouses

Map your warehouses, vehicles, and field stores

Repository masters link every storage location in your operation. Materials move between them with full visibility.

Suppliers

Connect vendors to materials for fast orders

Vendor management ties suppliers directly to SKUs. When a PO is needed, the right vendor is already assigned.

Approvals

Define who signs off on what

Approval paths set the rules by value, category, or region. The system routes requests to the right person automatically.

Vehicles

Track company vehicles as mobile repositories

Vehicle registry manages company vehicles that move materials to the field. Every vehicle is a tracked storage point.

Masters

Build the complete material universe

Stock masters define what exists in your operation. Once built, they become the source of truth for every request.

Field

The supervisor submits. No calls required.

A site supervisor needs materials. He opens FieldMaster, selects what he needs from the SKU list, enters quantities, and submits a Material Request Form in his language—even without internet. The request queues immediately in the system.

  • Submit from anywhere

  • Works offline, syncs when connected

  • Photo documentation included

Office

Approval happens in the system, not in someone's inbox

The moment the request syncs, the configured Approval Path triggers automatically. The right approver sees it on their dashboard with full context: who requested it, from which site, for which materials, and against what budget. One click to approve. One click to reject with a note.

  • Multi-level approvals supported

  • No email chains or follow-ups

  • Full context on every request

Procurement

PO created in clicks, not days

Once approved, the office team creates the Purchase Order directly in FieldMaster—linked to the right vendor from the Vendor Registry, pre-populated with SKU details and quantities. The PO goes through its own approval workflow before being sent. Every step is time-stamped.

Vendor pre-linked to materials

Approval workflow built in

No disconnected spreadsheets

Warehouse

Materials arrive. The system knows immediately.

When the delivery arrives at the warehouse, the receiving officer records the Stock Receipt against the open PO. Quantities are confirmed item by item. Discrepancies are flagged on the spot. Stock levels update in real time across all dashboards.

Last mile

Stock issued to field. Live on their phone.

This is where FieldMaster separates itself from every warehouse-first ERP. The office issues Stock directly to a named field personnel or vehicle. The moment it's saved, the field worker opens their mobile app and sees exactly what they've been issued—item names, quantities, and current status. No more disputes over what was received.

Control

Materials move between sites? Track every transfer.

Need to move stock from one repository to another, or from a vehicle to a site store? Material Transfer Forms create a digital record of every internal movement—approved, time-stamped, and reconciled. The Vehicles Registry ensures every vehicle is a trackable repository in its own right.

Reports

Month-end is no longer a crisis

Every transaction—requests, approvals, POs, receipts, issuances, transfers—is captured in real time. Download reports give managers instant access to stock movement history, pending approvals, vendor performance, and field issuance summaries without manual data gathering.
