Operating in the CEMAC zone

The request-for-quotation form makes quantity compulsory. The API does not, on either creating or updating a line — and where it is missing, null is written. A supplier is then asked to price something without being told how much of it.

In the CEMAC zone, paying a foreign supplier is a case you prove rather than an instruction you give. Four documents must agree, four different parties create them, and nobody owns the fact that they must match.

Every other way stock leaves your business has somebody on the other side of it — a customer, a project, a destination branch. A write-off has nobody. It is the one exit where the only evidence is whatever the person doing it chose to attach, and attaching anything is optional.

A transfer between your own warehouses is an administrative detail — until the two warehouses are the coast and somewhere landlocked, and the stock spends weeks in a state that appears in no warehouse's figure. The workflow handles it well. The reporting has a hole in exactly the wrong place.

Overriding a customer credit hold here needs the permission to edit invoices — the same grant that lets somebody change one. Three modules away, an equivalent override was deliberately given a permission of its own.

Payroll here is maintained for one market and configurable for every other. Those are not two grades of the same feature — they are different products, and the difference is who is responsible on the day a rate changes.

Last service and next service already exist as columns on the asset table — the groundwork is in the schema. Turning them into a working service schedule, with reminders and a due list, is a short build we can do for your workspace.

The stock module hides the expected quantity from the counter by default. The till displays Expected Cash to the cashier as a tile on the sale screen. Same product, opposite answers to the same control question.

Stock valuation, receivables ageing, payables ageing and a payments register all exist and all work — every input a cash conversion cycle needs. Turning them into the three ratios, sized in days, is a report we can add to your workspace.

A project here has one customer, which fits most delivery work cleanly. Organisations running one programme on money from three funders need a shared cost split across all three in set proportions — a funder dimension we can add to your workspace.

Our helpdesk was built for organizations where plenty of staff have no company login — and then the breach alarm was wired to a login. The tickets nobody had picked up were the tickets nobody was told about.

Two purchases are being confused in this market. One has no published specification to build against yet, and the other you could start on this month.

A hundred thousand XAF is worth exactly a hundred thousand XOF, always, by arrangement. They are still two currencies under two central banks and two sets of exchange rules — how to keep them apart in your books, and how we hold each one distinctly.
