Your preferred suppliers, your way. AroFlo's supplier management software helps you streamline inventory and master supplier customer relationship management.
With over 600 of your favourite suppliers automated, AroFlo is the ultimate purchasing software for tradies who want accurate job costings without excess paperwork.
AroFlo is a better way to manage your team's purchasing.
Our automated purchasing software means that field staff can simply go to a supplier, make their purchase and give the supplier their AroFlo order number. Once you receive your invoice, AroFlo then automatically scans the materials including part number, cost and item name, then creates a new digital purchase order in AroFlo. Then, as soon as you hit save, there's a record ready to go into your accounting package.
Keeping track of financials is one of the biggest challenges time-poor tradies face. Knowing your numbers starts with accurate job costings. AroFlo is a system that allows field staff to quickly enter materials and purchases on the go, driving accuracy where you need it most.

Sure can! Raising a purchase order in the field with AroFlo works just like it does back at the office. Start by creating a PO, then add what you need, choose a supplier from our extensive supplier directory and dispatch it instantly without ever leaving our software.
Working effectively with suppliers is part and parcel of running a trade business, but working efficiently with suppliers is another battle entirely. AroFlo helps cut out inefficiency by replacing your manual systems with the power of digital connectivity. That means no back-and-forth emails, no picking up the phone and no missing items when you arrive to pick up your order from your preferred supplier.
AroFlo’s supplier management software seriously cuts down the amount of time you spend dispatching purchase orders and liaising with suppliers, giving you more hours in the day to get out there and complete jobs.
AroFlo also helps you work better with customers, as the efficient dispatch of purchase orders means less downtime on your client’s project while you wait for the parts or supplies you need. Our software also records and archives all your historical purchase orders, so providing a client with information upon request is quick and easy.
f you’re worried that AroFlo might force you to use a supplier you don’t normally do business with, don’t worry! Our supplier sourcing system is comprehensive and includes all major suppliers throughout Australia. If we don’t list one of your preferred, you can simply add them to your supplier network within AroFlo and dispatch purchase orders to them straight away.
Yes, AroFlo’s supplier management software is an all-in-one system for creating, raising and dispatching purchase orders. That means you’ll never again have to create an email externally to dispatch a purchase order or spend hours sifting through paperwork looking for the list of materials you bought for a job half a decade ago.
Our supplier sourcing and procurement system is always online and available from anywhere, giving you access to a vast array of local suppliers, no matter where you are or what you need.
AroFlo also helps you focus on the all-important supplier customer relationship management side of your business. By dispatching purchase orders from a digital system rather than by hand, you’re increasing the speed of procurement and getting work underway faster than ever before. Modern clients demand timeliness throughout every step of their project, and with AroFlo, you can say with one hundred per cent certainty that the materials and parts are on time and on their way. That’s because our supplier management software eliminates double-handling and minimises mistakes. This means what you add to your purchase order in the initial stages is exactly what you’ll get when you arrive to pick up your parts and materials, and our internal dispatch system will ensure your order never gets lost in transit.
AroFlo can also help you grow your supplier network and cover your bases if one of your regular suppliers doesn’t have exactly what you need for the job at hand.
AroFlo’s powerful supplier management software supports over 700 suppliers across Australia. That means no matter where you’re working today, there’s an AroFlo-connected supplier nearby that’s ready to fulfil your order.
Placing that order is also a whole lot easier with our supplier sourcing system by your side. Create and raise purchase orders entirely within AroFlo, then dispatch your order without having to save it as a separate file and attach it to an email.
You’ll never be left in the dark while you’re out on site, either. AroFlo works across both the office and the field, and it’s available from anywhere, thanks to our cloud-based software infrastructure. That means regardless of whether you’re five minutes or a thousand kilometres from your home base, you’ll be able to access our supplier network and get the parts or materials you need to complete the job at hand.
AroFlo also makes procurement much easier for your team back at the office. By centralising all your supplier-related information in one place, your admin staff won’t be forced to waste time sifting through paperwork looking for supplier information while you’re stuck waiting for them out in the field.
By retaining all relevant data about your suppliers and their costs, you can also use AroFlo to simplify your purchasing and save money at the same time. Flag individual suppliers as preferred in our system, and parts/materials added to new purchase orders will always be pulled from their catalogues first. That means there’s no confusion about who to go to for the best price on a part or material; just create a new purchase order, select what you need, and AroFlo will do the rest for you.
You certainly can! When it comes time to transfer all your business-critical data to AroFlo, you’ll be pleased to hear that you can easily take your preferred suppliers to your new supplier management software.
AroFlo is also designed to make the migration process as smooth and convenient as possible. We understand that when it comes to getting up and running with your new job management software, your supplier directory and supplier sourcing system are likely one of your first considerations.
If that sounds like your circumstances, our support and training team can help you prioritise supplier onboarding in your rollout and get your supplier network back online ASAP.Our supplier integration process begins with us importing your existing supplier data into AroFlo.
We handle nearly all the details during this process, as it ensures that all of your preferred suppliers are seamlessly integrated into your new supplier management software.When you are up and running, you’ll quickly see how AroFlo’s user-friendly tools make procurement and buying directly from suppliers so much easier than your previous system.
Because AroFlo is an all-in-one customer supplier management software, you don’t need to leave our system to send your purchase orders to suppliers. Simply create a purchase order in AroFlo, add all the required parts directly from AroFlo’s inventory management software interface, then choose a supplier, and you’re ready to go. AroFlo will dispatch that PO directly to your chosen supplier, and if you’ve pre-agreed on certain prices and added them to your inventory, they’ll appear on the supplier’s end as well!
Yes, there’s no need to worry about your field team accidentally submitting a purchase order twice when you use AroFlo’s supplier management software.
AroFlo doesn’t just help you procure inventory from your suppliers faster. It also helps you improve supplier visibility, reduce risk and improve supplier relationships by giving you express authority over purchase order dispatch.
You’ll never get a call from an annoyed supplier trying to make sense of why one of your technicians submitted the same PO four times with our supplier management system.
If you’re wondering whether you can grant other AroFlo users the same power to approve purchase orders, the answer is yes. AroFlo’s permissions system is incredibly customisable, so you can decide who can approve purchase orders aside from you and add a bit of efficiency and autonomy to your operations where needed.
For example, within our supplier management software, you can set different designations for different levels of experience. Set up your system so that first-year apprentices have no access except timesheets, but your second and third years can create purchase orders but not approve them.
This is just one example of how customisable AroFlo is as a tradie job management software, and it’s all in aid of helping you create transparency around your business operations.
Trust the right people with the right permissions, and our software will put accountability at the top of your organisation’s awareness. Couple that with our software being accessible from anywhere, and you can be confident that the next job will go off without a hitch, even if it’s a thousand kilometres from home base.
AroFlo can handle that with no worries. In fact, our supplier directory includes over seven hundred suppliers and counting!
We pride ourselves on giving you access to a huge range of different suppliers, all contained within our powerful supplier management software.
If you need to source parts or materials from multiple suppliers at once, you’ll find our purchase order system makes the process simple and streamlined. Because your entire inventory is available in AroFlo, it’s easy to pick out what you need and dispatch multiple purchase orders within our software in the same amount of time it would take you to do one by hand.
There’s no double handling required, either. AroFlo pulls all the details it needs from the inventory data stored in your system, so everything from part numbers to prices will be automatically added to your purchase order, with no manual inputs required.
This also means bulk orders with AroFlo’s supplier management software are no trouble at all. You can even take advantage of AroFlo’s amazing low-stock notifiers to help you create bulk orders that refill your inventory without overstocking your warehouse. Set custom ‘low stock’ amounts against each inventory item, then create bulk purchase orders for all the items you need from all relevant suppliers.
If your trade business struggles to source the parts and materials it needs in adequate quantities without spending half a day creating purchase orders, you need our supplier management software.ext.
