What repleno deliberately does not cover

What repleno deliberately does not cover: no ERP, no accounting, no production planning. repleno is inventory management with automatic replenishment.


repleno is inventory management: items, suppliers, storage locations, stock, bookings, orders, labels, analytics. Plus automatic replenishment if you want it. What is deliberately left out: ERP, accounting, production planning.

What repleno is not

Not an ERP system:

  • No customer management
  • No invoicing
  • No quote creation
  • No project management: no tasks, no time tracking, no scheduling. Projects with status, duration, assigned staff, and booked material are available.

Not an accounting system:

  • No account assignment (assigning a booking account)
  • No cost center accounting (allocating costs by department). You can book material to projects, but that does not replace cost accounting.
  • No financial accounting
  • No profit and loss reporting

Not a production planner:

  • No scheduled production orders. Bills of materials and build bookings are available.
  • No capacity planning
  • No machine scheduling

Current technical limitations

Internet connection required:

  • repleno currently needs Wi-Fi or mobile data for scans, lookups, and bookings.
  • repleno is currently not suitable for stockrooms without a reliable connection.

Not a replacement for RFID or physical Kanban:

  • repleno uses barcode and QR-code scans.
  • Existing RFID or Kanban systems are not integrated or replaced.
  • repleno can be used alongside them for items outside those systems. Read more: Why repleno Is Not a Kanban System.
