Portal: posts rand receipts, gates any outlet over its limit, reconciles bank and card settlements, raises credit notes from returns, and exports VAT and SARS-ready records.

Our recognitions constantly motivate us to push the envelope of excellence and empower our customers with winning ideas each day.
Shows live rand outstanding per outlet, independent wholesaler and national chain, with the full ageing split beside it.
Features:
Why It Matters:
A collections officer in Johannesburg sees the same rand balance as the rep working a Soweto round, so the follow-up call goes out before the debt crosses 60 days.
Holds an outlet order against its rand ceiling and pushes any breach through Workflow Automation, up to seven levels.
Features:
Why It Matters:
A cash-and-carry account cannot keep stacking orders while earlier EFTs sit unconfirmed. The gate fires before the rep books the next one.
Captures each receipt with its mode and reference — instant EFT, PayShap, card or cash — and ties it straight to the open invoices.
Features:
Why It Matters:
Reps stop scribbling payment references into notebooks, and finance matches bank and card settlements to invoices the same evening.
Settles chain damage claims, expiry claims and short shipments as credit notes against the original rand invoice.
Features:
Why It Matters:

Matches bank statements to posted receipts, ranks the slow payers, and exports Order-to-Cash, Overdue Ageing and Credit Override audit reports.
Features:
Why It Matters:
