Salync
A complete system for distribution businesses: field orders, stock, invoicing, collections and accounts in one place, with a web app for the office and an Android app for the field team.
The Challenge
How distributors were working before
Distribution businesses buy from companies and sell to hundreds of shops through order bookers and delivery salesmen. Most were running on order diaries, registers and spreadsheets. Orders were written on paper and typed in later, stock in the register rarely matched the warehouse, and the accounts were days or weeks behind.
Owners with more than one branch had it hardest. Every branch worked differently, cash collected in the market was hard to track, and getting one clear picture of the business meant phone calls and manual reports.
General-purpose business software didn't fit either. It wasn't built around order booking, field collections, branch-level control or Pakistan's withholding tax rules.
What We Built
One system, from the shop counter to the books
We designed and built Salync as a single system that follows the way a distribution business actually works. An order booker takes the order on their phone at the shop. The branch manager approves it, and the invoice is created automatically with the right prices, stock check and tax. The delivery is tracked, the payment is collected, and the stock, customer balances and accounts update on their own.
The office runs the whole business from a web app: sales, purchasing, stock, accounts, expenses, payroll and reports. The owner gets a dashboard across every branch, and each person only sees the parts of the system their role allows.

Impact
What changed for the business
One clear picture of the business
Owners see sales, profit, stock and cash for every branch on one screen, instead of collecting reports from each one.
No more paper order books
Orders go from the order booker's phone straight into the system, so nothing is lost or typed twice.
Books that are always current
Every transaction updates the accounts as it happens, so month-end is no longer a rush to catch up.
Prices and discounts under control
Invoices always use the set price list, and each branch has its own discount limits.
Cash you can track
Collections are recorded at the shop, and the owner can see how much has been collected but not yet deposited.
Room to grow
New branches, products and staff are added from settings, without the business getting harder to run.
