Central ERP

Central ERP for Distribution

Distribution ERP software for faster, more accurate fulfilment

Central ERP is distribution ERP software for wholesalers and distributors that need accurate stock and reliable deliveries. It brings orders, inventory, purchasing, dispatch and finance into one cloud system, so the warehouse, sales team and accounts all see the same picture.

Common challenges for growing distributors

  • Orders promised against stock that is not really there
  • Picking and dispatch managed on paper or in separate tools
  • Purchasing decisions based on guesswork rather than demand
  • Invoices raised late because delivery information arrives slowly

ERP for distribution: your questions answered

What is distribution ERP software?

Distribution ERP software manages the full order cycle for wholesalers and distributors, from purchasing and stock through to picking, delivery and invoicing. Everything runs from one set of data, so you can promise orders accurately, reduce errors in the warehouse and get paid faster.

Can Central ERP manage stock across several warehouses?

Yes. Central ERP tracks stock across multiple warehouses and locations in one system. Receipts, transfers, picks and deliveries update levels as they happen, giving your sales and warehouse teams a reliable, shared view of what is available and where it is held.

How does Central ERP help distributors get paid faster?

Central ERP connects delivery and finance, so once an order is dispatched the invoice can be raised straight away from the same record. There is no waiting for paperwork to reach the accounts team, and integrations with Xero, QuickBooks and Sage keep your books up to date.

Is Central ERP suitable for a growing wholesaler?

Yes. Central ERP is designed for SME wholesalers and distributors that have outgrown spreadsheets and basic accounting software. It gives you integrated stock, orders and finance without the cost or complexity of enterprise systems, backed by implementation support from a UK team.

How much does distribution ERP software cost?

Central ERP is priced per user, with Standard at £40 and Complete at £80 per user per month, excluding VAT. There is also a free plan for businesses just starting out and custom plans for more complex distributors. You pay for the people who use it, so costs stay clear and predictable.

How long does distribution ERP software take to set up?

Typical setup and configuration of Central ERP takes two to four weeks, depending on how many warehouses, products and processes are involved. The process starts with a demo and mapping how orders move through your business today, then configuration, training for your team and ongoing UK support.

Can Central ERP add approval checks before orders are dispatched?

Yes. With custom tasks and automation, you can set conditions such as orders above a set value or orders from new trade customers, and require approval before the order moves on. The check is triggered automatically every time, and the system keeps a record of who approved it.
