Copper moves daily, much of the margin lives in vendor agreements, and projects release in stages over months. Elixir keeps the price current, the claims filed and the releases straight.
Every invoiced line is matched to the vendor agreement that covers it. Claims are prepared automatically and expiring agreements are named a month out.
Commodity lines update from the vendor price file the morning it changes, and any quote still open at yesterday’s price is flagged before it is honoured.
A bid becomes a project with its own lot pricing, releases, back-orders and returns, so the final margin on a job is a number you can look up.
Six things that happen every week, and what Elixir does with each.
Ship-and-debit claims prepared line by line from invoices, with missing customers and missing products on agreements named for the rep.
Wire and conduit repriced from the vendor file as it changes; open quotes and blanket orders at stale prices flagged the same morning.
Bid packages held as projects with lot pricing, staged releases and their own margin, from the first release to the last return.
Stock that sits in one branch while another back-orders it, with the transfer suggested before the vendor PO is cut.
RMA and restocking tracked against the original purchase, so vendor credits arrive and the returned reel does not become dead stock.
Quotes convert without retyping and the conversion rate, by rep and by account, is a line in the note.
Yes. Agreements are read once, then every invoice line is matched by product, customer and date. Ambiguous matches are listed for a person; the rest are prepared automatically.
The morning the vendor file changes. Anything quoted at the old price and still open is named in that day’s note, with the margin it would carry if honoured.
No. A project carries its own lot pricing and releases; stock sales at the counter never see those prices unless you say so.
It replaces the spreadsheet they work from. Some branches keep a person on the vendor relationship and let Elixir do the matching; that is a fine way to start.
Every trade runs on different numbers, so there is a page for each.
