Business Flows

XBuddy processes span multiple apps. A customer invoice can start in CRM, pass through Sales and Inventory, and post in Accounting — even when those screens live in different packs. This catalog groups flows by the business outcome, not by the subscription pack.

If your tenant has not purchased a destination pack, the business consequence still runs (stock, journals, quantities). What is gated is the working screen, not the result. You can still complete Order-to-Cash without opening every optional app.

How to read a flow

Every flow page describes:

HR — people overview
HR — people overview
  • When to use it and which steps you can turn off
  • Apps involved, with links into product docs
  • A diagram of hand-offs
  • Steps, statuses, and what happens when work crosses an app boundary
  • Related Workflow policies and AI assistants

Principles that apply everywhere

Document chain. Each commercial document can be created from its parent. You can always walk backward: payment → invoice → delivery → order → quote.

Quantity conservation. You cannot invoice more than you delivered, receive more than you ordered, or issue more stock than you hold (in strict modes). Cancelling reverses quantity impact.

Optional steps. Quotes, delivery orders, RFQs, and GRNs can be switched off for a small company and switched on for a 3PL — same data model.

Approvals sit beside the flow. Thresholds and routing live in Workflow Management; they do not replace the document chain.
