Many moving parts.
Consistent workspace.

Datum provides one consistent workspace across your modules, companies, and editions with side-by-side work, permission-aware search, Dot-assisted imports, one login, and company-specific customization.

Work side by side.
Stay in context.

Keep the list, the record, and related work in view. Move between tasks without closing what you need or retracing your steps.

Keep your place

Review a document alongside the list or workspace you opened it from.

Follow related work

Open connected records together to compare, check, and make decisions.

Move through the queue

Review the next record while keeping the surrounding list in view.

Command Center

As your operation grows, finding the right record should stay simple. Command Center brings search, navigation, and common actions into one place—so you can locate a document, open a workspace, or begin the next task without working through menus. Results and actions follow your company context and permissions.

  • Find a record from the details you know.
  • Jump straight to a workspace.
  • Start the next task.
  • Check the context before moving on.
  • Pick up where you left off.

One login.
Every company you run.

If you work across multiple businesses, switch between the companies you have access to without signing in again. Each company opens with its own records, edition, and permissions.

Configuration first.
Custom modules where they're needed

Everyday settings cover roles, approval paths, and standard workflows. Most specialist requirements are met there, or by your edition's standard modules.

Where they don't, we develop custom modules for your company, tailored around the tasks and processes your business actually needs, with access, delivery, and support agreed as part of the scope.

One foundation.
Many ways to apply it.

Standard brings together everyday business operations. Millwork adds specialist workflows for millwork projects and production. Finance brings multiple companies or accounting books into one workspace, each managed in its own currency, with consolidated reporting across them. Each edition builds on the same Datum foundation, with capabilities suited to the work it serves.

STANDARD

Connect the whole operation.

Run purchasing, inventory, sales, project delivery, and accounting from one system. Turn requisitions into supplier orders, reserve and move stock, fulfill customer orders, and follow invoices, payments, and costs across the business.

MILLWORK

Carry project requirements into production.

Manage custom cabinetry, joinery, and architectural millwork from estimate and material take-off through purchasing and production. Organize each job into assemblies and material requirements, then coordinate purchasing and build orders. Keep design revisions, material shortages, and production costs tied to the job.

FINANCE

Understand the financial picture.

Consolidate financial data across multiple companies and currencies, then report on the combined financial picture. Use cost and profit centers to understand costs and revenues, manage outstanding balances, and trace reported results to the activity behind them.

One identity

One login moves you across companies and editions within the unified workspace.

One design language

Familiar interactions across editions help people move between companies with less to relearn.

One security model

Company data separation, permissions, and audit history underpin every edition.

One intelligence layer

Dot works from the operational context of whichever edition you are in.

Specialize only where
specialization matters.

Every edition shares one core. Improvements to Dot, security, integrations, and core workflows reach every edition, while specialist depth is added only where it gives an operation a real advantage.

New editions arrive where businesses share that backbone but need distinct product models, terminology, compliance, or execution workflows.

The core gets stronger. Each vertical stays focused.

Common questions.

  • What is a Datum edition?

    A ready-made setup for a way of working: Standard for everyday operations, Millwork for millwork projects and production, and Finance for running more than one company or set of books.

  • Can one person work across several companies?

    Yes. One login covers every company that person is authorized to access, each with its own records and its own currency.

  • How does our existing data get in?

    Through a Dot-assisted import that maps your current records into Datum before you go live.

  • Can Datum be customised for our workflow?

    Configuration comes first: roles, approvals and settings cover most specialist work. Company-specific modules are developed only where standard capabilities do not reach, and are scoped, quoted and supported separately. Recurring patterns become new editions rather than per-customer code.

Start with the work your business runs on.
