What is wholesale software?

One system from purchasing to invoice

Wholesale software is a system for managing stock across one or more warehouses, purchasing from suppliers, processing orders from business customers, picking and shipping, and invoicing. Count-IT combines these parts with a till, so warehouse, sales and administration all work with the same data.

Looking for an ERP for your wholesale business? Count-IT works as an ERP for SMEs: standard software for stock, purchasing, sales and invoicing that you configure yourself and that connects to your accounting, such as the Exact Online integration. Read how stock and purchasing work in the knowledge base on stock and purchasing.

Stock across multiple warehouses

Real-time stock per warehouse and location, stock transfers, minimum and maximum stock levels and an email when stock runs low.

Scanning and counting

With a scanning terminal (PDA) you count stock, carry out a full stock-take and receive goods. GS1 barcodes and label printers are supported.

Purchasing with order proposals

Count-IT creates an order proposal based on your stock rules; you check and approve it. Purchase orders go out by email, EDI or a supplier integration, such as with Centraal Boekhuis.

Sales orders

Process orders with partial deliveries, partial invoices and down payments, and set up recurring orders for regular customers.

Picking and shipping

Create pick lists and packing slips and print shipping labels via your carrier. More in the knowledge base on orders and shipping.

Price lists per customer

Customer-specific price lists, tier prices per quantity and prices with a validity period.

Invoicing and payments

Invoices and credit notes, collective invoices for account customers, payment links, direct debit mandates and bank import (CAMT.053/MT940) with match suggestions. Send e-invoices via Peppol.

Integrations and API

Connect to accounting, webshops and logistics, or build further yourself with the REST API (OAuth2).

Reports and margins

See turnover, margins, stock turnover and write-offs with reasons, per location or product group. Export to PDF or Excel.

Which kind of wholesaler?

Wholesale software for the way you work

No two wholesalers are alike. These are three situations where Count-IT fits well.

Wholesaler with a showroom or shop

If you also sell at a trade counter or in a showroom, you use the till of the same system there. You link a business customer to the receipt so their own price list applies, and purchases on account are bundled periodically into one collective invoice. Whatever you sell in the showroom comes off the same stock as your warehouse orders.

Wholesaler with B2B customers

Business customers order by phone, email or online. You process orders with partial deliveries, down payments and recurring orders, at customer-specific prices. Let customers order themselves via the B2B ordering portal, and invoice by direct debit or via Peppol. Read more about invoicing in the knowledge base on invoices and payments.

Wholesaler with a webshop or fulfilment

If you also supply consumers or webshops, you pick orders with pick lists, add a packing slip and create shipping labels via the Sendcloud integration. If you outsource logistics, you exchange data with fulfilment partner Monta via the Monta integration.

From purchasing to shipping

How an order flows through your wholesale business

Every step uses the same data, so nothing is retyped and your stock is right at every moment. Pick lists and packing slips take one click; read how to set up hardware such as scanners and printers in the knowledge base on hardware and printers.

  • You approve the order proposal and send the purchase order
  • You receive the goods with the scanning terminal
  • A customer order comes in and you pick it with a pick list
  • You ship with a packing slip and shipping label
  • You invoice, and the invoice goes to your accounting
Compare

Separate till + separate packages vs Count-IT

Many wholesalers work with an accounting package, spreadsheets for stock, manual order entry and sometimes a separate till for the trade counter. This is how that compares with one wholesale system.

Checklist

What to look for when choosing software for your wholesale business

Wholesale software touches warehouse, purchasing, sales and administration all at once. Take these points into account when you choose.

  • Warehouses: can you manage multiple warehouses and locations with real-time stock and transfers?
  • Scanning: can you count, receive and pick with a scanning terminal?
  • Purchasing: do you get an order proposal you check yourself, and can you order by email or EDI?
  • Orders: does the system support partial deliveries, partial invoices, down payments and recurring orders?
  • Prices: can you record customer-specific price lists and tier prices?
  • Invoicing: can you invoice via Peppol, collect by direct debit and import bank statements?
  • Integrations: does it connect to your accounting, carriers and, if needed, your fulfilment partner?
  • Support: do you get personal help with set-up and switching?

Hardware for warehouse and trade counter

In the warehouse you use a scanning terminal (PDA), barcode scanners and label printers; at the showroom or trade counter a till with receipt printer and card terminal. If you sell by weight, Count-IT works with a certified Digi scale. View the range of POS and warehouse hardware; we deliver it pre-tested or check whether your existing equipment is compatible.

Tax and e-invoicing

If you invoice to Belgium, you send e-invoices via Peppol and check VAT numbers with VIES. With a till in Germany, Count-IT supports the KassenSichV with a TSE via Fiskaly and the DSFinV-K export; in Belgium you use the digital daily receipts book (dagontvangstenboek) via Scrada.
