Z Zelnoo Inventory
Supply Chain · Production

Inventory keeps a kit in every hand and a tube on every shelf.

An end-to-end supply chain for the consumables that make collections possible — from vendor procurement and warehouse stock, through allocation to field phlebotomists, down to per-job consumption. A web control tower and a barcode-scanning mobile app, on one ledger.

Capabilities

A control tower for consumables

🗂️

Catalog & stock

Master item catalog (tubes, needles, lancets, PPE, kits) with per-warehouse stock levels, expiry tracking and reorder indicators.

🧾

Procurement workflow

Purchase requests → vendor quotations → purchase orders with a multi-stage approval lifecycle and amendment versioning.

🤝

Vendor management

Supplier directory with categories, order history and price tracking to keep procurement competitive.

📤

Allocation

Push stock from a warehouse to a specific phlebotomist; every issue and receipt is logged as a transaction on both sides.

📱

Barcode mobile app

Warehouse staff scan QR, EAN-13/8, Code128, PDF417 and more for fast restock, transfer and counting from the floor.

🔁

Orders & returns

Phlebotomists order supplies (paid via gateway, packed and shipped); returns are reviewed and reconciled against the ledger.

Stock rules & automation

The logic that prevents stockouts

Thresholds and workflows turn raw stock data into proactive action — before a phlebotomist runs out mid-shift.

RuleHow it works
Reorder thresholdWarehouse stock at or below an item’s reorder point is flagged for replenishment automatically.
Low-stock alertsA sweep every 6 hours notifies field staff via SMS, WhatsApp and push when their kit stock runs low.
Reorder forecastingSuggested reorder quantity is derived from recent consumption trends, not just a fixed number.
Allocation = double-entryAllocating stock deducts the warehouse and credits the phlebo, both written as matching ledger transactions.
Auto-consumptionCompleting a collection job consumes the mapped kit items from the phlebo’s stock automatically.
PO approval workflowDraft → pending → approved → paid → delivered, with stock landing in the warehouse on delivery.
Kit mappingEach test/package maps to the consumables it needs, so the system knows what every job will draw down.
Connected systems & impact

The supply backbone under field operations

No kit, no collection — Inventory quietly underpins every home visit, and its data feeds the systems that schedule and police them.

↔ PHLEBO APP

Field stock

Phlebotomists see their kit levels, request restocks and pay for supply orders; consumption syncs back per job.

→ ALLOTMENT

Kit availability

A viable collection kit is an implicit condition for taking a job — stock levels keep the eligible pool realistic.

↔ CORE API

Kit mapping

Collection jobs read the kit-to-test mapping to know — and draw down — the exact consumables each order needs.

→ ADMIN

Supply oversight

Admins monitor stock health, procurement and vendor performance across the network from their console.

↔ PAYMENTS

Supply orders

Phlebo supply purchases run through the payment gateway with the same capture/refund flow as the rest of the platform.

→ SENTINEL

Procurement fraud

Price inflation and excessive write-offs feed Sentinel’s inventory-fraud detectors.
