Smart Procurement Automation

AutoPURCHASE

Needs computed. Draft orders created. You confirm.

AutoPURCHASE computes exactly what to buy — stock target plus confirmed customer orders, minus what’s on hand and already incoming — then creates draft purchase orders grouped per supplier right in your ERP. Vendor minimums respected, slow movers never over-ordered, and new lines go onto its own open draft for that supplier instead of a second order. You review, confirm and send — or let it confirm small orders for you. First month free.

The Manual Procurement Problem

Manual purchase order creation is time-consuming and error-prone. Timing mistakes lead to stockouts or excess inventory. Without automation, you’re constantly playing catch-up.

Without AutoPURCHASE

  • ❌ Manual PO creation
  • ❌ Forgotten vendor minimums
  • ❌ Over-ordering slow movers
  • ❌ Hours lost in spreadsheets

With AutoPURCHASE

  • ✅ Draft POs per supplier
  • ✅ Vendor rules respected
  • ✅ One open draft per supplier
  • ✅ You just review & confirm

Why Choose AutoPURCHASE?

Purchase orders should write themselves. AutoPURCHASE computes real needs from your ERP and drafts the orders — you keep the final say.

Precise needs — stock target + confirmed sales − on-hand − incoming
Grouped per preferred vendor from your ERP pricelists
Vendor minimum quantities & minimum order values respected
Stock-cover cap & never-order list — no over-ordering
Draft POs (RFQs) by default — you review, confirm and send them from your ERP
Report after each run, only when orders are created, or weekly

How It Works

1

Connect Your ERP

Link your ERP at BOTS4.me/bots and set your rules — minimum order values, stock-cover cap, never-order list. Works with Odoo 13–19, ERPNext 15–16, Zoho Inventory, Dolibarr 23+, Business Central online, QuickBooks Online, Xero and SAP Business One today — any other ERP with an API on request.

2

Needs Are Computed

Every hour, day or week — you choose — AutoPURCHASE calculates per-product needs for your main warehouse: stock target plus confirmed-but-undelivered customer orders, minus on-hand stock and purchase orders already on the way. Uses fresh AutoSTOCK targets if you own both apps — or your ERP’s own reordering rules standalone.

3

Draft POs & Report

Draft purchase orders (RFQs) appear in your ERP, grouped per supplier, and a report lands in your inbox. You review, confirm and send them to your vendors from your ERP — from the Family tier, orders below a value cap you set can be confirmed automatically.

Core Features

Built from real business requirements — every order quantity is computed from live ERP data.

Precise Need Calculation

Per product: (stock target + confirmed-but-undelivered customer orders) minus (on-hand stock + purchase orders already incoming). Nothing you already ordered is ordered twice, and confirmed sales are never forgotten.

Per-Vendor Grouping

Needs are grouped by each product’s preferred vendor from your ERP’s vendor and pricelist data. One clean draft order per supplier — not a pile of single-line POs.

Vendor Minimums Respected

Honors vendor minimum order quantities and per-supplier minimum order values — tiny orders are skipped and listed in your report instead of annoying your suppliers.

Over-Ordering Protection

A maximum stock-cover cap makes sure slow movers are never over-ordered, and a never-order list keeps discontinued or special products out of every proposal.

One Open Draft per Supplier

Creates draft purchase orders (RFQs) in your ERP on every paid plan, so you review and confirm before anything is sent — sending the RFQ to the vendor stays in your ERP. A later run appends new lines to AutoPURCHASE’s own open draft for that supplier instead of creating a second order; drafts made by people or by your ERP are never touched. From the Family tier, orders below your value cap can be confirmed automatically (off by default).

Purchase Proposal Report

After each run, only when orders are created, or as a weekly summary — you choose: per-supplier orders with values, suppliers skipped and why, and products missing a vendor. Anything that needs a hand, such as an order above your value cap, is mailed right away. Client-facing reports and logs in 31 languages.

Purchase Hold

Put customers on credit stop or in dispute on hold: no stock is bought to fulfill their open orders. Their undelivered quantities are subtracted from every purchase need, and each report shows exactly how much was excluded. Available from the Business plan.

What the higher tiers add

Personal • Family • Business • Enterprise

  • + Round to the vendor’s minimum quantity, AutoSTOCK targets, minimum order value, stock-cover cap and the never-order list (Personal)
  • + Auto-confirm orders below your value cap (Family, off by default)
  • + Purchase hold for customers on credit stop or in dispute (Business)
  • + A larger monthly usage allowance on every tier

Running out of usage is safe: previously created purchase orders and existing data are never reversed. New items wait until you top up extra usage or the next billing period begins; an item that has already started is always finished.

No AI. Not in Any Mode.

AutoPURCHASE is pure rule-based automation. Purchase orders are built from your stock targets, confirmed customer orders, stock on hand and purchase orders already on the way. No model is involved in deciding what to buy, and nothing is ever sent to an AI provider.

No AI model — in any mode, on any tier
Your data is never sent to an AI provider
Deterministic — the same input always produces the same result
Every action is logged and traceable to the rule that caused it
Built for organizations whose policy or client contracts rule out AI
