Materials Management, the operational backbone
Every Stock Move, Captured Once.
Receipts, putaways, stock takes, transfers, par checks and issues, every operational stock move runs on the same platform that holds your live inventory data. Your storeroom team works one clean digital workflow instead of paper, spreadsheets and back-and-forth, and supply chain leadership has a real-time picture of what is actually happening on the floor.
Stop running parallel records.
Most storerooms run on a mix of ERP transactions, paper lists, spreadsheets and the team's memory. The result is reconciliation work that never quite catches up, and a stock picture that is always a little out of date. Materials Management replaces that with one operational workflow on the platform that already holds your live stock data, so the storeroom and the system finally tell the same story.
The Problem
Receiving, putaway, cycle counts, transfers and issues happen across different systems, on paper and in people's memory, so storeroom records never quite match the ERP and the reconciliation work is never finished.
The Capability
Materials Management runs receipt, putaway, cycle count, transfer, par-level and requisition workflows on the Genesis platform, with mobile scanning at every step, automated min/max thresholds, and exception-only escalation.
The Outcome
Your storeroom team works one clean digital workflow, stock records reconcile to the ERP continuously, and supply chain leadership has a live operational picture without asking anyone for a report.

“One workflow for the storeroom team replaced four. The reconciliation work that used to swallow half a day every week now runs in the background, and the stock picture we show to leadership is the one the team actually sees on the floor.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Materials Management is the operational workflow feature within Genesis Inventory Management. It runs the day-to-day stock workflows your storeroom team handles, receipt, putaway, cycle counting, par-level checks, transfers, picks and issues, all on a single platform with mobile scanning at every step.
No. Materials Management runs alongside your ERP rather than replacing it. The ERP remains the system of record for finance and purchasing; Materials Management captures the operational stock moves and reconciles continuously to the ERP, so the two stay in step.
Receipt against PO, putaway with location verification, cycle counting on schedule, par-level checks, replenishment requisitions, internal transfers between locations, and picks and issues to wards, operating theatres and other consumption points.
Mobile (iOS and Android), web, and integrated storeroom hardware including high-value cabinets and fixed scanners where applicable. We work with the hardware you already have wherever possible, and recommend specific devices where the workflow benefits from them.
Par levels are set on real consumption data by item and location, with reorder points calculated automatically. When stock falls to the reorder point, a requisition is raised through your normal purchasing workflow. Par levels are reviewed continuously, not annually, so the numbers track real demand rather than last year's.
Yes. Counts are scheduled by item class, location and frequency, with mobile-guided counts and variance escalation. The platform flags variance for review rather than asking your team to plough through every count manually.
Receipt scans against the PO confirm what arrived, what is short or over, and what is damaged, with the supplier and lot/serial detail captured automatically. The PO update flows through to your ERP and goods-receipt processes without rekeying.
The parent Inventory Management product is the platform and the data. Materials Management is the operational workflow layer on top of that data, the day-to-day work your storeroom team does. You don't buy Materials Management without Inventory Management; it lives within the product.
Yes. Materials Management is built for multi-site, multi-storeroom operations. Each location has its own par levels, count schedules and storeroom map, with consolidated visibility for supply chain leadership across the network.
Issues and transfers to consumption locations are captured on scan, with stock updating at both ends of the move. The data flows through to consumption analytics and feeds Point of Care workflows where those are in use.
