Operations module — Trade Node

Dispatch, inventory, logistics and the gate in one flow.

From “material ready” to “delivered and signed”, with the stock ledger and the gate register in the same system as the dispatch.

What it does for you

• Dispatches with e-way bills: Raise challans, attach vehicle and transporter, and keep e-way bill details with the dispatch record.
• Stock you can trust: GRN, transfers and movements keep live stock by warehouse — counts stop being a month-end surprise.
• Trips you can see: Track vehicle trips and delivery confirmations instead of calling drivers for status.
• Front desk on record: Visitor gate passes and courier inward/outward registers move off paper into searchable records.
• Gate and CCTV in one view: RFID gate scans and the live camera wall sit beside dispatch data — security and operations stop being separate worlds.

What's inside — 9 sub-modules

Buying Operations switches on these sub-modules in your Trade Node portal:

• Dispatches: Dispatch challans with vehicle, transporter and e-way bill details, through to delivery confirmation — the paper trail from godown gate to buyer’s signature.
• Logistics: Vehicle trips tracked from loading to delivery, with transporter webhooks for live status where the transporter supports them.
• Import / Export: Import and export consignments with customs milestones, forex values and trade document references — international legs of the trade on the same system as the domestic ones.
• Front Desk: Visitor gate passes and inward/outward courier registers as searchable records instead of a paper register at reception.
• Premises Security: A live CCTV camera wall beside gate activity and visitors on site — security and operations in one view instead of two separate screens.
• Inventory: Live stock by warehouse fed by goods receipts, transfers and dispatch movements. Counts and adjustments post properly, so stock stops being a month-end surprise.
• Warehouses: Warehouse and godown master data — locations that stock, transfers and dispatches all reference consistently.
• Transporters: Transporter master with contact and vehicle details, referenced on every dispatch and e-way bill record.
• RFID Gate & Readers: RFID/NFC readers at the gate log material and vehicle movement; the same device family powers staff attendance badge punches.
