Also serving Madras
Between Ambattur's component stores and the godowns of Madhavaram and Red Hills, Chennai holds a great deal of stock that exists on paper and cannot be found on the rack.
Trusted by 200+ organisations across India & overseas — including
Chennai's stock sits in many kinds of places. Tool cribs and component stores in Ambattur Industrial Estate. FMCG depots on the northern side, close to the truck terminals. Electronics warehouses feeding assembly lines on a just-in-time basis. Cold rooms near the fishing harbour. What they share is a gap between the quantity in the books and the quantity on the floor, usually discovered when a customer is waiting.
ERPNext inventory and warehouse management closes that gap by recording every movement when it happens. It supports multiple warehouses and bin locations, batch and serial numbers, expiry dates, barcode scanning, putaway and pick lists, reorder levels, quality inspection at receipt, and stock valuation that ties to the accounts. Stock counts are reconciled in the system with the variance and its value shown.
An auto supplier's production stops for a bracket that the system says is available. It is, somewhere. Bin-level locations and scan-based putaway mean the pick list names the rack and shelf, and the storekeeper walks to it directly.
FMCG and pharma distributors serving Madras and the neighbouring districts ship whatever is nearest the door. Batch-wise stock with expiry dates and first-expiry-first-out picking sends the oldest saleable batch first and warns of lots approaching expiry while there is still time to move them.
Electronics and engineering units hold components supplied free by customers alongside their own purchases. Separate warehouses and ownership tagging keep consigned material out of the valuation, and consumption is reported back to the customer accurately.
Automotive & auto components
Raw material, work-in-progress and finished-goods stores with bin locations, minimum levels driven by customer schedules, job-work stock held at vendors tracked on your books, and dispatch staging areas matched to each plant's pick-up window.
Retail & FMCG
Central warehouse with store replenishment, batch and expiry control, scheme and free-goods handling, van loading sheets for city beats, and returns processed back into saleable, damaged or expired stock with the correct accounting.
Electronics manufacturing
Serial and lot traceability from component receipt to finished unit, moisture-sensitive and shelf-life items flagged, kitting against work orders, and cycle counting by value class so expensive parts are checked most often.
We ask for your item list, warehouse layout and a month of movements, and we study these remotely before proposing locations, naming and scanning points. Our team then visits the Chennai warehouse to label racks, test scanners on your floor and train storekeepers shift by shift. The opening stock count is done together, and the system goes live on counted figures.

No. ERPNext works with ordinary USB or Bluetooth barcode scanners and with Android handhelds. We recommend devices according to your environment, from a simple scanner at the receiving desk to rugged handhelds for a large godown.
Yes. Material sent for plating, machining or assembly is held in a supplier warehouse in the system, so it stays on your books. When the processed item comes back, the consumption and the job-work charge are recorded against it.
ERPNext supports FIFO and moving-average valuation, set per item. Every receipt, issue and transfer updates the value in the general ledger when perpetual inventory is enabled, so the stock figure in the balance sheet matches the stock report.
