Credit Notes Should Set Off Alarm Bells
Credit notes are often identified but never recovered. Hops closes that gap with structured recovery paths and auditable workflows.

Credit notes usually show up when something has gone wrong: missing stock, damaged goods, or pricing errors.
On paper, the fix sounds simple. In reality, many credits never get recovered.
They get lost between deliveries, inboxes, and disconnected systems while invoices still get paid in full. Across sites and suppliers, that leakage adds up quickly.
The key operational issue is this:
- identifying the problem is one step
- recovering the margin is another
Hops is built to handle both. At the point of delivery, teams can trigger one of four structured outcomes:
- Keep open
- Backorder
- Credit note
- Cancel
That means action is captured immediately, not chased later via spreadsheets or email threads. Every path is auditable, giving operations and finance a clean record and reducing lost value.
On large annual procurement volumes, the difference in recovery can be significant.
Hops helps teams move from "we spotted it" to "we recovered it."
