Change the sample update. Only a verified reservation links it to a customer order. Purchase order 4471, line 2 **May 12**Previous expected arrival Latest sample confirmation **May 26**New expected arrival Verified reservation ### Customer order 8812 40 units reserved against this purchase-order line. **Customer promise: May 20** Same item, different relationship ### Other customer orders Sharing an item code does not establish a reservation. Pooled stock needs its own allocation check. Try a different sample updateExpected arrival day in MayStock relationshipUpdate received The source diagram shows the default sample. Editing the calculation requires JavaScript. ### One verified order needs attention Arrival on May 26 is after the May 20 promise on order 8812. The branch buyer checks the options before changing any commitment. Verified-order result Order 8812: date at risk Other-stock result Other orders sharing the item are not linked Your buyer decides purchases, substitutions and changes to customer promises. ## Supplier-change exception workflow - A map of purchase-order lines, stock allocations and customer commitments. - A limited queue for changed supplier dates and quantities. - Source references and a named buyer for each supported exception. - A separate review path where pooled stock has no reliable customer allocation. - Configuration or a scoped integration with duplicate and stale-update checks. Pricing ## Start with the published US$7,500 audit The published two-week AI Opportunity Audit (US$7,500 fixed) inventories the workflow, puts numbers on what it costs you today and returns a 90-day roadmap. It is credited toward the build if you proceed. A pilot build of one workflow on your data is published at US$25,000 to US$60,000 fixed, with the conditions for stopping the pilot agreed in writing before we start. The audit covers one branch, its supplier sources and order-allocation rules. Software licenses, new stock-allocation logic and wider system work are priced separately. ### Orders this can help - Supplier changes regularly affect orders your sales team has already promised. - A purchasing owner can explain how stock is reserved or allocated. - Your software retains reliable purchase-order and customer-order identifiers. - You can start with one branch, product family or supplier group. ### Not included - Autonomous purchasing, substitutions, stock allocation or customer promises. - A replacement for your inventory planning or accounting system. - An assumed link between orders based only on matching items or dates. See the supplier-update outline Illustrative walkthrough ## A supplier moves a date. Which promises does it touch? Open each step to see how a changed supplier date reaches only the orders it really affects. 1. Supplier confirms a later dateUpdate PO 4471, line 2 moves from the 12th to the 26th. 2. Order with stock reserved on that lineAffected Customer order 8812 has a verified reservation against this PO line, so its promise date is at risk. The buyer sees it first. 3. Orders drawing on pooled stockAllocation review There is no reliable link to this PO. Nothing is guessed; these go to allocation review. 4. Orders that only share the itemNot linked A matching item or date is not treated as proof of a link. 5. Buyer decidesHuman call The buyer checks options before sales contacts a customer. No automatic substitution or new promise. Illustrative records. Item similarity does not establish stock ownership or authorize a changed promise. ## Preparing your purchasing review 1. ### Verify the order relationship Confirm how a supplier line connects to a customer commitment. Changes without a reliable allocation remain for buyer review. 2. ### Build the exception view Bring supported supplier changes together with current order data and the person responsible for the next decision. 3. ### Check against the buyer's work Compare a limited pilot with the team's existing process. Test repeated updates and fresh data before any approved system change. Relevant work ## Automation we run on ourselves 50+ hours a week Our own agency runs on agents we built: daily industry scanning and a weekly Meta ads review that creates owned tasks, saving the team 50+ hours a week. The published case shows how we build, review and keep improving them. [Read how we automate our own work](https://www.strataigize.com/case-studies/how-agency-uses-ai-agents-automate-busywork/) Our own marketing operation, not an industrial distributor. It shows how we build and review workflow agents, not a result in your industry. ## Discuss your project Use 30 minutes to explain how purchasing and sales handle revised supplier dates and where the customer impact becomes unclear. ![Teegan Johnson](https://www.strataigize.com/team/opt/team-teegan-head-384.webp) **Teegan Johnson**Founder & Chief Growth Officer Call agenda and calendar details - How purchase orders connect to customer commitments - The changes that create the most chasing or confusion - A branch-sized scope and the software access it would need 30 minutes with the Strataigize team, online.

Fields marked optional can be left blank. ## Supplier-change questions Why start with a paid audit? Because the value depends on your data, systems and volume, and none of that is visible from a form. The two-week audit puts real numbers on the workflow before anyone commits to a build, and its fee is credited if you proceed. What if our inventory is pooled across orders? Those cases need an explicit allocation rule or buyer review. We do not infer a customer commitment from an item number and date alone. Establishing a trustworthy relationship is a prerequisite for the workflow. We already use an ERP and supplier portal. Why add anything? You may only need better configuration and ownership. We check existing purchasing and supplier tools first. Custom integration is considered only where a specific handoff remains unresolved and supported access is available. Will it change delivery dates or send customer emails? The buyer approves any change to a commitment. The initial scope identifies exceptions and their sources. Customer communication, substitutions and purchasing decisions stay with your authorized team.
