GX-08 · Purchasing and materials
From take-off to purchase order to the task that consumed the kit. Pools decrement themselves as work is claimed, so the number on screen is the number in the container.
The chain
Most contractors have a good handle on what they bought and a rough idea of what they fitted, with a gap in between that only gets reconciled at the end of the job, if at all. Graftix closes it by making the claim part of doing the work.
Material pools
A pool holds a quantity of something on site. When a task claims from it, the remaining figure drops and the claim is logged against the task that used it. Nobody does a stocktake to find out where things went, because the record was made as the work happened.
Into the money
Because material consumption is recorded as it happens, material spend aggregates automatically into the project financials rather than arriving as a surprise from the accounts department six weeks after practical completion.
