From order to doorstep: warehouses, dispatch, and delivery on one thread.

Distribution ERP that connects customer orders to warehouse stock and the vehicles that deliver - so an order is picked from real stock, dispatched on a tracked vehicle, and closed with the customer, all on one record.

Updated

Where the handoffs lose the thread

Distribution is the handoff business: order to warehouse to vehicle to customer, and every handoff is a chance to lose the thread. The order commits stock the warehouse can't supply, dispatch loads a vehicle without the delivery detail, and the customer chases an update nobody can give. Farexa runs the whole thread on one system: customer orders draw on real warehouse stock, dispatch goes out on tracked vehicles, and delivery closes back against the order.

Because it's one platform, the pieces reference each other. Orders deplete the warehouse that fulfils them, the fleet carries the vehicles and their costs, and customer updates sit on the record rather than in a driver's phone. Stock stays honest through recorded movements, deliveries connect to the customer and the order, and the cost of moving goods - vehicles, fuel, maintenance - is visible alongside the sales it served.

That's distribution run as one flow instead of four disconnected steps: order on real stock, dispatch on a real vehicle, delivery on the record, and the whole thing readable from order to doorstep.

How Farexa maps to distribution

Orders on real warehouse stock

Customer orders draw on the stock a warehouse actually holds.

Dispatch on tracked vehicles

Dispatch goes out on vehicles carried in the fleet, with their costs.

Delivery closed to the order

Deliveries close back against the order and the customer.

Warehouse stock and transfers

Stock held per warehouse and moved as recorded transfers.

Customer updates on the record

Delivery updates sit on the record, not in a driver's phone.

Vehicle and delivery cost

Fleet costs - fuel, maintenance - are visible alongside the sales they served.

Invoices from the order

Bill from the order delivered, with per-line VAT and balances.

One thread, order to doorstep

Order, warehouse, vehicle, and customer reference each other on one record.

From order to delivered and billed

  1. Set up warehouses, vehicles, customers

    Create warehouses, products, vehicles, drivers, and customer orders.

  2. Take the order on real stock

    Customer orders draw on the stock the fulfilling warehouse actually holds.

  3. Dispatch on a vehicle

    Load and dispatch on a tracked vehicle, with delivery detail on the record.

  4. Deliver and update

    Close the delivery against the order and customer, with updates recorded.

  5. Bill and read cost

    Invoice from the order, and read delivery cost alongside the sales it served.

Who distributes with it

  • Distribution companies

    Order-to-doorstep run as one thread across warehouse and fleet.

  • FMCG and food distributors

    Orders on real stock, dispatched and delivered on the record.

  • Wholesalers with delivery

    The dispatch-and-delivery side of volume selling.

  • Dispatch and operations managers

    Managers run the flow; owners read delivery performance and cost.

What distributors ask

Does it connect orders, warehouse, and delivery?

Yes - that's the whole point. Customer orders draw on real warehouse stock, dispatch goes out on vehicles carried in the fleet, and delivery closes back against the order and customer, so the thread from order to doorstep is one record rather than four disconnected steps.

Do orders check against real stock?

Yes. Orders draw on the stock the fulfilling warehouse actually holds, kept honest through recorded movements - so a commitment references stock that's there to ship, not a pooled guess.

Can I see the cost of delivering?

Yes. The fleet carries vehicles and their fuel and maintenance costs, so the cost of moving goods is visible alongside the sales it served - delivery performance and cost read from the same system.

How is Distribution different from Wholesale?

Wholesale leads on volume selling - pricing, bulk orders, warehouse stock. Distribution leads on the fulfilment thread - order to warehouse to vehicle to customer. A wholesaler that delivers uses both: Wholesale to sell, Distribution to fulfil.

Which apps does a distributor start with?

Usually Warehouse, Fleet, and Sales for stock, delivery, and orders, then Inventory and Analytics so stock value and delivery cost come off the same records.
