Depot ordering on WhatsApp, with production and stock in one system
When a manufacturer supplies its own depots or outlets every day, the day starts with orders: phone calls, messages and lists from each depot, collected and keyed in before production and packing can be planned.
We take the depot orders on WhatsApp, on buttons, straight into the software, and run the rest of the chain from the same data: purchase, production, packing, depot stock and dispatch.
Sound familiar?
- Every depot's order has to be collected and typed in before the day can be planned
- Production and packing quantities are worked out by hand from those orders
- Nobody can say quickly what stock is at which depot
- Dispatch is checked against paper rather than against the order
How it works
- 1
Depots order on WhatsApp
The depot says Hi to your number and taps Place Order, picking items and quantities on buttons. An unfinished order from today can be continued or discarded.

Orders land in the software
Each confirmed order is saved straight into the software and the depot gets the order number back on the chat. Nothing is retyped in the office.

Purchase, production and packing
Raw material purchase, production and packing are recorded in the same system, so what was made is tied to what was ordered.
- 4
Depot stock and dispatch
Stock is kept depot by depot and dispatch is made against it, so what each depot holds is known from the software, not from a phone call.

Common questions
Do the depot staff need to install anything?
No. They use WhatsApp as they do today, say Hi and tap buttons. Nobody types commands.
Can this work with the accounting software we already use?
Orders can be posted into accounting software such as Busy or into our own ERP. Tell us what you use and we will tell you how it connects.
Is the demo film real software?
Yes, it is the software running on a made-up company with made-up items and depots, so no client's data is shown.
