The problem

Distribution margins depend on control.

With thin margins and credit sales, small errors in stock, pricing or collections add up quickly.

  1. 01Stock spread across locationsGodowns, branches and counters each keep their own records.
  2. 02Price and scheme confusionCustomer-specific rates and terms are tracked outside the system.
  3. 03Credit that runs too longOutstanding and credit limits are reviewed only at month end.
  4. 04Dispatch delaysPending orders and dispatch status aren't visible to sales.

The solution

Cenora Inventory for distribution.

Cenora Inventory connects stock, orders, invoices and payments across locations, so sales, warehouse and accounts teams work from the same data.

Outstanding and dispatch status are visible every day, not reconstructed at month end.

  • Multi-location stock
  • Customer-specific pricing
  • Dispatch tracking
  • Outstanding by age

Can each branch see only its own stock?

Yes. Role-based access can limit users to specific locations, while management sees everything.

Yes. Customer-specific rates and terms are configured during setup.

Can we import our existing Excel data?

Yes. Item masters, customers, suppliers and opening stock can be imported from spreadsheets during onboarding. We help clean and map the data.
