The operating model
Manage stock in Tall Emu. Keep the financial accounts in MYOB or Xero.
Tall Emu becomes the operational source of truth for sales, purchases, stock movements, manufacturing and fulfilment. MYOB or Xero receives the stock values and financial transactions it needs for accounting.
Buy or make what is needed
Use purchase orders, supplier information, bills of materials and work orders to cover demand and replenish stock.
Track every stock movement
Receive, transfer, adjust, count, pick, pack and ship stock across locations with a clear movement history.
Keep inventory value and accounts aligned
Send the accounting records to MYOB or Xero when goods are received, sold, invoiced or paid.
Stock you can trust
Know what you have, where it is and what is already promised.
A stock-on-hand number is not enough. Tall Emu gives sales, purchasing and warehouse teams the full picture while they are making decisions.
On hand, committed and available
See physical stock, customer commitments, incoming supply and what can actually be sold.
Multiple locations
Track stock across warehouses, branches, vans, 3PLs or other locations without combining everything into one total.
Bins, bays and warehouse locations
Keep the warehouse position with the stock so the team knows where to receive, put away, pick and count it.
Serial numbers
Track the exact unit through receipt, sale, shipment and customer history.
Batches, lots and expiry dates
Keep traceability and expiry information with stock movements and customer deliveries.
Stocktakes and adjustments
Count and correct stock with a recorded reason instead of silently changing a spreadsheet.
Backorders and part shipments
Keep the order open, ship what is ready and retain the remaining demand until it can be supplied.
Real-time sales visibility
Show the sales team the same stock position used by purchasing, manufacturing and fulfilment.
Purchasing
Buy what the business actually needs.
Raise purchase orders from demand, stock levels or supplier decisions. Keep supplier pricing, delivery dates, foreign-currency purchases and receipts connected to the products and customer orders they support.
When goods arrive, receive them into the right location and update available stock. Supplier bills and other financial records can then move to MYOB or Xero.
Protect the true cost and margin
- Track supplier costs and price changes.
- Add freight, duties and other landed costs.
- See cost and margin while quoting and selling.
- Keep purchase receipts and stock value aligned.
- Avoid selling from an outdated accounting stock figure.
