⚖ Compliance notes
- Indent should be pre-approved by authorised person — prevents unauthorised issue.
- Mandatory acknowledgement of receipt by indenter — creates audit trail.
- Issue against work order / activity allows cost-per-activity tracking.
- High-value items (e.g., precision instruments, electrical panels) need separate handling + log.
- Reorder triggers at safety stock level — prevents stock-outs.
