There are three flows in the supply chain: materials, information, and financial flows.

Materials flows. These are all physical products, new materials, and supplies that flow along the chain. Included in the materials flows are returned products, recycled products, and materials or products for disposal. Information flows. All data related to demand, shipments, orders, returns, schedules, and changes in the above are information flows.

Financial flows. Financial flows include all transfers of money, payments, credit card information and authorization, payment schedules, e-payments, and credit-related data.

In managing the supply chain it is necessary to coordinate all the above flows among all the parties involved in the supply chain.
