Application Scenario Examples

# Store purchase requests—no longer just chat messages.

Using three retail stores and one warehouse as an example, design requisition, approval, permission, and operational reconciliation workflows.

Example business: Three stores share one replenishment warehouse, centrally procured by headquarters; store managers submit restock requests and view individual performance.

Chain retail warehouse staff use handheld scanners and tablets to verify allocated cartons; blue high-rack shelves, trolleys, and loading lanes illustrate multi-store dispatch scenes.Warehouse Stocking and Store Transfers · Scenario Illustration

## Understand On-Site Operations First

Each store reports inventory in group chats; HQ uses spreadsheets to arrange shipments. Stockouts, duplicate requests, or missed approvals make it difficult to trace processing progress.

## How to arrange system workflows?

### 1. Separate stores and warehouses

Confirm inventory ownership first, then assign appropriate permissions to headquarters procurement and store managers.

### 2. Express demand via purchase requisitions

Record products, quantities, and requesting stores formally for approval and verification.

### 3. Assign approval responsibilities

Specify who approves, who executes, and how rejections are handled; track business status.

### 4. Align operational metrics

Agree on business days, refund attribution, and reporting scope; then compare sales and inventory records across stores.

## How to determine if the process is ready?

- Store Managers Operate Only Within Authorized Data Scope

- Requests, approvals, and inventory changes must be traceable

- Store Reports Use Consistent Business Days and Refund Definitions
