Material promised twice
Without reservations, the same stock is counted on for two workfronts.
Product · Inventory & Stores
Construction stores and inventory, tied to the work
Accepted goods receipts land in stores automatically. Issue material against the WBS, reserve it for a workfront before the crew needs it, and see low and out-of-stock items at a glance — with transfers between projects approved and tracked in transit.
Why it matters
Site stores run out at the worst moment
Shortages are rarely a surprise to the ledger. They're a surprise to the crew.
Consumption nobody can place
Issues not tied to the work can't be reconciled against what was built.
Receipts keyed twice
When goods receipt and stores are separate systems, one of them is always behind.
Capabilities
What Inventory & Stores does
Stock and transactions
- An item master with category, unit, minimum and maximum levels, unit cost and inventory value
- Receipts, issues, returns and adjustments, each tagged to a project
- A stock summary with total value, low-stock and out-of-stock items
- Accepted goods receipts create stores receipts automatically
Tied to the work
- Issues linked to the WBS, with consumption reported by WBS
- Reservations by project, workfront or WBS against available stock — reserved, short or consumed
- A shortage sends a notification; consuming a reservation posts the issue
- Transfers between projects, from draft to approved, in transit and received, with a stock check

Questions
Inventory & Stores — common questions
Yes. When a goods receipt is accepted in Procurement, the stores receipt is created for you.
Yes — by project, workfront or WBS. A reservation shows as reserved, short or consumed, and a shortage triggers a notification.
No. Stock is one quantity per item for your organisation, valued at unit cost. If you need bins, batches or serial numbers, tell us — we'll say plainly whether BuildCore fits.
