Why supply chain teams live in spreadsheets

A typical supply chain operation has siloed data across four files, each with a different owner:

  • A PO tracker owned by procurement
  • A shipment status sheet updated manually from carrier emails
  • A goods-receipt log maintained by the warehouse team
  • A vendor scorecard built every quarter by pasting data from all three above

Each file has a different owner, a different column layout, and a different definition of "delayed". When the CFO asks "how many POs are at risk this week?", the answer takes two days to produce.

MISBuddy collapses all of this into one workflow.

What you can automate today

Each workflow maps to a configuration you set up once. After that, it's upload → classify → export. Every time.

1
Purchase Order Tracking
Configuration: Purchase Orders

Track every PO from raise to receipt. Automatically flag overdue shipments, partial receipts, quantity discrepancies, and high-value open orders — without anyone maintaining a formula.

Configuration Fields
po_number string vendor_name string sku string category choice quantity_ordered integer unit_price float total_value float order_date date expected_delivery_date date actual_delivery_date date quantity_received integer po_status choice payment_terms choice
Disposition Logic: PO Risk Classification
P1
OVERDUE
po_status = Shipped AND expected_delivery_date < today
P2
PARTIAL_RECEIPT
po_status = Received AND quantity_received < quantity_ordered
P3
HIGH_VALUE_OPEN
po_status = Open AND total_value > ₹5,00,000
P4
DISCREPANCY
quantity_received ≠ quantity_ordered AND po_status = Received
P5
ON_TRACK
po_status in [Open, Shipped] AND expected_delivery_date is set
P6
CLOSED / CANCELLED
po_status = Closed OR Cancelled
How it saves time: Export the OVERDUE packet every Monday morning as a CSV, paste it into your escalation email. Or use the API to push it directly into your ERP's exception queue.
2
Shipment & Carrier Tracking
Configuration: Shipments
shipment_id string po_number string carrier choice dispatch_date date expected_delivery_date date actual_delivery_date date shipment_status choice delay_days integer damage_reported choice freight_cost float pod_received choice
Disposition Logic: Shipment Exception Monitor
P1
RTO_RETURN
shipment_status = RTO
P2
LOST
shipment_status = Lost
P3
DAMAGED
damage_reported = Yes
P4
DELAYED_NO_POD
delay_days > 3 AND pod_received = No
P5
DELAYED
delay_days > 0
P6
ON_TIME / IN_TRANSIT
Delivered with delay_days = 0, or still in transit
Weekly carrier scorecard: Run the logic, export by carrier, pivot on ON_TIME vs DELAYED counts. What used to take a day now takes five minutes.
3
Inventory Reconciliation
Configuration: Stock Movement
movement_id string sku string movement_type choice quantity integer warehouse string batch_number string expiry_date date movement_date date reference_doc string variance_quantity integer
Disposition Logic: Inventory Anomaly Detection
P1
EXPIRY_RISK
expiry_date set AND expiry_date < 30 days out
P2
NEGATIVE_VARIANCE
variance_quantity < 0
P3
POSITIVE_VARIANCE
variance_quantity > 0
P4
UNTRACKED_MOVEMENT
reference_doc is empty
P5
CLEAN
variance_quantity = 0 AND reference_doc is set
Sample AI Prompt for Rule Building
Classify POs as OVERDUE if they are still in Shipped status but the expected delivery date has passed.
Mark as PARTIAL_RECEIPT if the quantity received is less than quantity ordered.
Flag as HIGH_VALUE_OPEN if the total value exceeds 5 lakhs and the PO is still open.
Everything properly received goes to CLOSED.
