Van stock

What is in each van and each warehouse, with a minimum per place. Technicians log parts from their van, and a part you do not have goes to the office as a request.

Know what is where

The part on the job is either in the van, in stock or on order.

Van, stock or missing

Each part on a sheet carries a small icon: a truck for the van, a warehouse for main stock, a package with a magnifier for a part you do not have.

A minimum per place

The same filter can want 4 in a van and 40 in the warehouse. Set a minimum per location and the row says when stock falls below it.

Find it somewhere else

When a van is empty, All locations asks for the part's levels everywhere, with the time they were read.

Honest numbers, offline too

Levels come from the ERP you connect, as a read-only copy. Every row says when it was read, because a level is only as fresh as its timestamp.

  • In the briefcase

    Stock levels download with the next days' jobs, so the van list opens without a signal.

  • Scan a part

    A part's barcode adds it to the sheet at once, with an Undo, or asks for a serial or batch number first.

  • Parts from a quote

    Parts on the customer's approved quote are listed on the sheet; Use puts one on at the quoted price.

How to start

  1. Open the field demo

    Add a part from the van to a worksheet.

  2. Connect your ERP

    Van stock reads its levels from the ERP you connect, so that comes first.

  3. Set the minimums

    Start with the parts that run out most often.

Questions about van stock

Does van stock work without an ERP?

No. Levels are a read-only copy of what your ERP holds, so this module needs a connection. The rest of herbe service runs on its own.

Does herbe service change our stock levels?

No. The ERP owns them and the app never writes them back. Booking a transfer between locations stays in the ERP.

How current are the numbers?

Each row shows when it was read. A van list refreshes when the technician pulls it, and a part refreshes everywhere when someone presses All locations. Nothing refreshes on a schedule.

Where does the minimum come from?

From the item's minimum in the ERP if there is one, or from your own number for a location. A sync never wipes your number.
