Nothing enters or leaves without a record.
The gate module logs every vehicle and material movement at the factory gate, inward and outward, against a PO, challan or invoice. It issues returnable and non-returnable gate passes and alerts you when returnable material is overdue. It matters because the gate is where stock records and reality first meet, and where leakage often begins.

Questions, answered.
Does gate entry replace the GRN?
No. Gate entry records that a vehicle arrived with certain documents. Stores then makes the GRN against that gate entry after unloading and checking, so the two can be matched.
Can security staff use it easily?
Yes. The gate screen is kept short: vehicle number, party, document number and purpose. Most details are picked from the PO or invoice.
What is a returnable gate pass used for?
For anything that leaves and must come back: a motor sent for rewinding, a die sent for repair, samples, or tools lent to a contractor. The pass stays open until the item returns.
Which Kreon products include gate entry and gate pass?
