Software and ecommerce for retail and wholesale businesses.

Retail and wholesale businesses often run sales, inventory and customer credit across separate spreadsheets and a point-of-sale system that doesn't talk to any of them. Add an online store and trade customers, and the same inventory is being sold through three channels that each keep their own count.

We've built a retail ERP covering sales, inventory, installment accounts and staff records in one system. We also build ecommerce stores, and can connect them to the system that manages inventory, so every channel draws on the same figures.

Worth knowing

Where retail numbers stop agreeing

POS separate from inventory

Counts drift; stocktakes reveal large discrepancies

Online store separate from inventory

Items sold online that are already gone

Credit and installments in spreadsheets

Overdue accounts missed; balances disputed

Purchasing separate from inventory

Deliveries not checked against orders

Trade orders by phone and email

Re-keying errors; inconsistent pricing

Reports assembled by hand

Decisions made on last month's numbers

Each gap is small. Together they mean the owner never has one reliable picture of the business.

Trade accounts

Account-specific pricing and ordering through a portal can replace phone calls and emailed orders — scoped case by case around how your trade accounts actually work.

Worth knowing

A note on installment sales

Installment and in-house credit sales are among the hardest things to run from a spreadsheet: every sale needs a schedule, a running balance and a way to flag who's behind. A system can track all of that reliably.

In the United States, offering financing to consumers also carries lending-disclosure and state-level requirements. Software can record payments and schedules; compliance remains with the retailer and their advisors.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can our online store and shop share the same inventory?+

Yes, if the store is connected to the system that manages inventory.

Can the system track installment payments?+

Yes — schedules, balances, payments and overdue accounts, in the same system as the sale.

Custom ERP, or connect what we already have?+

If your POS and accounting tools work well individually, connecting them may be enough. A custom system makes sense when the way you sell doesn't fit packaged software.
