100% Salesforce-native. No middleware. No integrations. No data silos. Your entire inbound operation lives where your business already runs.

The Root Cause

Most Inventory Problems
Start at Receiving

Before goods even reach the shelf, disconnected systems, manual steps, and delayed updates create errors that cascade through your entire operation.

How Most Businesses Receive

  • Purchase orders live in a separate system
  • Receiving happens manually with paper or spreadsheets
  • Quality checks are inconsistent or skipped
  • Inventory is updated hours or days after delivery
  • Discrepancies are discovered only during reconciliation

The Downstream Impact

  • Mismatched stock levels cause overselling or shortages
  • Production is delayed waiting on "available" components
  • Finance spends hours on manual invoice reconciliation
  • Poor supplier accountability with no data to back it
  • Teams fix errors instead of moving operations forward

Axolt runs your entire inbound workflow directly inside Salesforce — so every delivery is received, validated, and reflected in inventory in real time. No delays. No manual reconciliation. No uncertainty.

Core Capabilities

Everything Receiving Needs,
Built Into One System

Four integrated capabilities that turn receiving from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage.

01 / Real-Time Receiving

Capture Deliveries the Moment They Arrive

Stop updating inventory after the fact. Axolt records quantities, updates stock levels, and tracks inbound shipments the instant goods are received — across every location. Learn more about Salesforce inventory management .

  • Record received quantities instantly via scan or entry
  • Update inventory in real time across all warehouse locations
  • Track incoming shipments with full visibility
Inventory is accurate and available immediately
02 / Purchase Order Matching

Ensure Every Delivery Is Correct

Every inbound delivery is automatically matched against its purchase order workflow . Quantities, items, and supplier details validated in seconds — shortages and discrepancies flagged immediately.

  • Automatic matching of received goods against open POs
  • Validate quantities, SKUs, and item specifications
  • Identify shortages, over-deliveries, or substitutions instantly
No over-receiving, under-receiving, or confusion
03 / Integrated Quality Control

Stop Bad Inventory Before It Enters Your System

Quality gates built into the receiving workflow mean damaged or non-compliant goods are caught before they're added to stock — not discovered after they've been picked or shipped. Supports better clear-to-build decisions .

  • Perform quality checks as part of the receiving process
  • Flag damaged, incorrect, or non-compliant goods
  • Approve or reject items before any inventory update occurs
Only verified, usable inventory enters stock
04 / Supplier Performance Visibility

Know Which Suppliers You Can Rely On

Every inbound delivery builds a performance record. Delivery timelines, order accuracy, and quality consistency — tracked automatically so your procurement decisions are based on data, not gut feel. This directly impacts purchase order to delivery performance .

  • Track delivery timelines against committed dates
  • Monitor order accuracy per supplier and SKU
  • Measure quality consistency across deliveries
Better supplier decisions and stronger supply chain control

Before vs. After

Eliminate the Gap Between
Delivery and Availability

Traditional receiving creates delays at every step. Axolt collapses that process into a single, real-time flow.

Traditional Process — Delayed, Manual, Error-Prone
1
Delivery arrives at warehouse dock
2
Staff manually counts and records on paper
3
Data keyed into ERP — often hours or days later
4
Validation against PO done manually, if at all
5
Inventory updated — errors already in the system
Axolt Process — Instant, Automated, Accurate
1
Delivery arrives — scanned or entered immediately
2
Automatically matched against open purchase order
3
Quality check completed inline — items approved or flagged
4
Inventory updated in real time, ready for use
5
Finance, warehouse, and production notified automatically

Business Impact

The Results When
Receiving Works Correctly

When inbound logistics is accurate and real-time, the benefits ripple across every part of the business.

Inventory Accuracy from Day One

Stock levels reflect reality from the moment goods arrive. No lag, no catch-up entries, no phantom inventory skewing your data.

Faster Warehouse Operations

When receiving is accurate and immediate, picking, packing, and fulfillment all start from a clean baseline — no delays downstream.

Fewer Errors and Exceptions

Automated PO matching and quality gating eliminate the manual data entry mistakes and missed discrepancies that create downstream fire-fighting.

Stronger Supplier Accountability

Every delivery builds a performance record. Negotiations, renewals, and supplier decisions are backed by real delivery and accuracy data.

Full Inbound Visibility

Know what's in transit, what's at the dock, and what's cleared QC — at every location, in a single Salesforce view.

Accurate Cost & Invoice Matching

Finance gets clean receiving data automatically. Invoice matching is based on what was actually received and accepted — not what was ordered.
