In the admin portal, operations heads build the warehouse list, the linked entities, the FEFO/FIFO rules and the approval flows around the way the network already runs. On the mobile app, depot teams post a GRN at intake, raise transfers between the central hub and the provincial depots, and pick, pack and dispatch orders — still capturing when coverage falls away out on the route. Everything syncs back to the cloud, so head office reads live stock, in-transit float and rand inventory value without waiting on a manual reconciliation.




Practical guides for selling and distributing across the South African market.
Our recognitions constantly motivate us to push the envelope of excellence and empower our customers with winning ideas each day.
Hold every depot as its own entity, valued in rand, with a named owner behind it and one consolidated view across all your South African sites.
Features
Why It Matters
Clean attribution per depot keeps the rand position honest for head office and for every distributor in the network.
Move stock from a Gauteng hub out to depots in KwaZulu-Natal, the Western Cape or the Eastern Cape, visible in transit the whole way.
Features
Why It Matters
Parks the in-transit float cleanly, so a load running the N1 or the N3 is never counted twice across two depots.
Raise the GRN as goods come off the truck, match it against the purchase order, and send any short-supply to head office.
Features
Why It Matters
Short-supply gets caught at the door instead of a month on, and batch records stay clean from the first receipt.
Pick FEFO for pharma and perishables or FIFO for general FMCG, post the delivery note, then raise the invoice straight off the dispatch.
Features
Why It Matters
SAHPRA-registered medicines and short-life FMCG leave by earliest expiry, which cuts write-offs on already tight margins.
Surface stock movement, rand inventory value and ageing buckets depot by depot, with traceability sitting behind every batch and serial.
Features
Why It Matters
Ageing puts a rand figure against dead stock, and traceability keeps you recall-ready for SAHPRA and SABS checks.
