Why schools need this module connected

Vendor master, purchase orders with goods receipt, inventory movements, library circulation, laboratory equipment, and a school file drive — the back-office layer storekeepers, librarians, and admin teams need.

Behind every classroom is a chain of supplies, books, equipment, and documents. Schoolyi tracks vendors and purchase orders through goods receipt, manages stock movements, runs library lending with fines and reservations, and gives teams a shared file drive with controlled sharing — so operational assets stay accountable.

What you can run day to day

Schoolyi’s library & back office module is built for the teams listed below — not as a standalone spreadsheet replacement, but as part of one calendar, roster, and role model.

  • Vendor catalog with PO history
  • Procurement — PO lifecycle, GRN, cancel reversals
  • Inventory stock, adjustments, and PO-linked receipt
  • Library lending, returns, fines, and reservations
  • Laboratory equipment and session scheduling
  • Classroom and infrastructure master
  • File manager — My Drive, shares, zip download

Outcomes leadership cares about

When this area shares data with admissions, fees, exams, and reporting, coordinators stop reconciling exports every week.

  • Purchase and inventory records tie back to vendors and approvals
  • Librarians run circulation without a separate siloed system
  • Lab and classroom assets stay registered and findable
  • Shared files reduce email attachments and lost documents

Who uses it

Typical users: Storekeepers, Librarians, Admin office. Each role sees only the screens and actions scoped to their job.
