ScentVault

The challenge

Spreadsheets mixed four different flows — imports, local purchase, internal consumption and commercial sales — into one sheet. Reserved stock was oversold. Cargo still in transit inflated physical counts. Nobody could say which batches were still uncosted, or how much capital was tied up per supplier. A generic stock app would have made it worse, because it treats "in the warehouse" and "valued in the books" as the same event.

What Astriva delivered

• Dual-stage gate-in — weight posted makes stock live, cost locked finalises valuation
• USD CFR and PKR landed cost captured as independent inputs, never a converted figure
• Customer reservations that lock weight, so free stock equals physical minus reserved
• An import pipeline that tracks cargo in transit without inflating warehouse counts
• Two-person maker-checker control — the creator of a transaction can never verify it
