# Best Distribution ERP Software

  *By [Nathan Calabrese](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/nathan-calabrese)*

   Distribution ERP software manages logistics operations as well as front- and back-office activities of wholesale and distribution companies. This type of software is used to determine product demand and ensure that products sold are delivered on time. Distribution ERP is used mostly by departments in charge of inventory, warehousing, and logistics. Since distributors sometimes combine products before selling them, most distribution ERP software offer features for assembly and kitting. Most distribution ERP solutions also provide modules for accounting, sales, and purchasing, and sometimes human resources.

Since not all distribution ERP products include all the modules mentioned above, they usually integrate with [accounting software](https://www.g2.com/categories/accounting), [CRM all-in-one software](https://www.g2.com/categories/crm-all-in-one), or [HR management suites](https://www.g2.com/categories/hr-management-suites). For advanced supply chain management and e-commerce needs, distribution ERP systems also integrate with [supply chain suites](https://www.g2.com/categories/supply-chain-suites) and [e-commerce platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/e-commerce-platforms).

To qualify for inclusion in the Distribution ERP category, a product must:

- Provide inventory management and control functionality
- Generate inventory count documents for cycle counts
- Include features to manage warehouses across multiple locations
- Track sales orders and match them to inventory availability
- Create and manage purchase orders to fulfill demand
- Manage shipping and receiving operations in various locations
- Assist users with picking and packing products for shipping
- Maintain financial transactions for all activities such as sales or purchases
- Manage product cost, pricing, discounts, and profit margins
- Plan and implement transportation and delivery schedules
- Analyze the financial and operational performance of the company

Rather than installing individual software for each step in the distribution supply chain, distribution ERP software provides functionality for all distribution processes by streamlining them using one single platform.

A distribution business (also known as a wholesale distribution) buys finished products from manufacturers and sells them to other companies or individuals. Some distribution companies may also acquire finished goods, which they sell to manufacturers. To help these companies, a distribution ERP software provides a central repository to manage all processes involved with distribution, helps maintain better relationships with customers, and allows users to analyze their operations' financial and operational performance accurately.

#### What Types of Distribution ERP Software Exist?

There are a few major types of ERP solutions for distribution:

**Cloud or on-premises**

Cloud ERP is slowly replacing legacy systems delivered on premises, and distribution ERP is no exception to the rule. There are two types of cloud ERP solutions for distribution—traditional on-premises software that have been modernized and moved to the cloud, and cloud-native products that are only available as a subscription model (or software as a service (SaaS)).

**Industry agnostic or vertical-focused**

The wholesale distribution sector covers multiple industries from manufacturing and retail to construction and minerals. Each of these industries requires special transportation and storage conditioning. For instance, food distribution relies on refrigerated trucks and warehouses, while chemical distribution requires protection from potentially dangerous hazardous materials. A distribution ERP solution for food and beverage companies should provide features to manage expiry dates and sales in bulk or batches (as opposed to pieces and units for discrete products). 

**Standalone or part of ERP systems**

While some ERP solutions focus exclusively on distribution, ERP for manufacturing software also provides features for logistics. Manufacturers who need advanced logistics features would benefit more from using ERP systems such as [discrete ERP](https://www.g2.com/categories/discrete-erp), [ETO ERP](https://www.g2.com/categories/eto-erp), and [mixed mode ERP](https://www.g2.com/categories/mixed-mode-erp).

### What are the Common Features of Distribution ERP Software?

An ERP system dedicated to distribution is built to serve every business function involved in the distribution process. As such, distribution ERP systems include a wide variety of features and functionalities. From procurement to shipping, the features listed below help any company manage its entire distribution process.

**Accounting** : Financial management features allow distributors to manage accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledgers, and other financial aspects involved in the distribution process. Distributors can also set up different modes of payment on their invoices to ensure timely payments from their customers.

**Inventory:** Distributors need to track the inventory of finished goods stored in their warehouses across multiple locations. Distribution ERP allows inventory managers to monitor inventory movements in real time to ensure that the company can fulfill their customers' orders.

**Warehouse management** : Warehouse management features allow distributors to manage all aspects of their inventory. This includes inventory control features that track sales orders and match them with inventory availability and business intelligence features that allow distributors to identify stock that is not being purchased.

**Purchasing** : Distributors create purchase orders to fulfill customer demand. Proactive companies may also acquire goods based on demand forecasting, without having firm orders from customers. Distribution ERP helps the purchasing departments find the optimal balance between the quantities ordered and customer demand.

**Sales and marketing:** Most distribution ERP systems have customer relationship management (CRM) features that allow users to engage with customers on a more personal level. CRM features provide an entire overview of a customer's profile with contact activity, purchase history, contact information, and related selling opportunities. This helps drive more meaningful and effective customer communication. Also, some distribution ERP systems provide an internet portal for customers, which allows them to place orders and track the estimated arrival time (ETA) on shipping.

**Assembly** : Distribution companies don't need manufacturing software but may sometimes require functionality for "light" production, sometimes referred to as assembly or [kitting](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/kitting). Assembly refers to combining components to create a product (similar to Ikea furniture) while kitting bundles products that can be sold together (like a shirt and a tie). These operations do not require manufacturing software but need to be managed to reduce waste and optimize processes, especially for high-volume assembly and kitting.

**Logistics:** To be effective, distributors need to track the movement of goods from suppliers to customers accurately. Distribution ERP provides functionality to address this challenge, such as receiving, picking and packing, and shipping. A distribution ERP software is also tailor made for warehousing operations.

**Human resources (HR):** The HR modules of distribution ERP solutions are usually limited to [workforce management](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/workforce-management) and [payroll](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/payroll). Functionality for talent management is delivered through integration with human capital management systems.

**E-commerce** : Some distribution ERP systems allow users to set up digital storefronts from within the software. If the user chooses to set up a digital storefront, the website can be linked to inventory available so that customers can access a complete product catalog. B2B e-commerce features such as order management are often included in the software. 

**Analytics** : Analytics dashboards allow distributors to evaluate trends and operational data within their business. Users may tailor dashboards to look at inventory performance, shipment times, and sales opportunities to gather more business intelligence.

Other features of distribution ERP software: [BOM](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/bom), [Disassembly](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/disassembly), [Integrations](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/integrations), [Payment Batches](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/payment-batches), and [Time & Attendance](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/time-attendance).

### What are the Benefits of Distribution ERP Software?

Distribution ERP software is beneficial in multiple ways, the most common being:

**Single source of truth** : Distribution ERP software is meant to function as a centralized business management system to manage all front-end and back-office activities for wholesale and distribution companies. From warehouse management to shipping to a customer's front door, distribution ERP software provides features to help wholesale and distribution companies ensure that all their operations and business needs are streamlined.

**Supply chain visibility:** One of the core reasons to implement a distribution ERP software is for achieving unified visibility into all the distribution processes. The distribution ERP system may be considered a unified software that connects workflows from various business departments. For example, suppose a retail worker makes a sale and records the sold product in the distribution ERP software. In that case, this will automatically alert the warehouse on inventory levels within that particular store. This will let the warehouse know if stock is running low in that specific store and whether they need to send out more shipments. Increased visibility ensures that departments stay connected, allowing businesses to react quickly.

**Sales and inventory forecasting:** Distribution ERP software makes it easier to plan and forecast demand. Using historical sales and procurement data stored in the software, distributors and suppliers can evaluate which products are in high demand or underperforming. This helps with more accurate sales forecasts and signals the potential financial health of a business.

**Increased profitability:** Distribution ERP tracks all costs associated with distribution activities, such as product costs, shipping and handling, order processing, and returns. By comparing these costs with sales numbers, the distributor can calculate its level of profitability. 

**Improved customer satisfaction** : Distribution ERP software makes it easier for distributors to deliver the right products at the right time. With enhanced visibility across the supply chain, customers who place an order on the digital storefront will automatically alert the workers in the warehouse to start packing the order. Once those orders are packed and shipped, the drivers can participate in live communication with fleet managers and customers with updates on when their shipments will arrive. In today's business world, quick shipping times and visibility for customers are crucial to staying competitive.

### Who Uses Distribution ERP Software?

Distribution ERP systems are used mainly by departments in charge of purchasing, inventory, warehousing, and logistics. These departments are often found at e-commerce companies, wholesale distributors, and other retail and supply chain businesses. While departments involved with logistics are the primary users for distribution ERP software, the all-encompassing nature of the software allows other departments to benefit from its offerings. This includes sales teams, marketers, and accountants.

**Inventory managers** : Distribution ERP software provides inventory management and control, generates inventory count documents for cycle counts, tracks sales orders and matches them with inventory availability, and includes features to manage warehouses across multiple locations. These features let warehouses have full visibility over their inventory, allowing them to streamline processes for packing and shipping.

**Procurement:** Procurement professionals use this software to identify and fulfill the demand for raw materials and finished products. The system calculates the quantities needed to fulfill customer orders and determines the optimal suppliers for these products based on their past performance.

**Logistics:** Distribution ERP tools help logistics teams plan and monitor activities such as inventory receiving, picking and packing, and shipping. Users can also use the system to outsource operations such as shipping and warehousing and to manage relationships with partners and suppliers. 

**Sales:** Sales teams use distribution ERP to create and track sales quotes, orders, and invoices, as well as maintain relationships with customers and prospects. By integrating with the inventory module, salespeople can provide customers with information on product availability or an estimated delivery time. Also, sales can track product returns to identify low-performing products and dissatisfied customers.

**Accounting:** Accountants track costs and profitability of the company using distribution ERP. Most solutions include complete accounting modules with charts of accounts, general ledgers, and financial management features.  

### What are the Alternatives to Distribution ERP Software?

Alternatives to distribution ERP software can replace this type of software, either partially or completely:

[ERP systems](https://www.g2.com/categories/erp-systems): ERP systems provide functionality for multiple businesses such as manufacturers, professional services providers, and logistics companies. A distribution company can benefit from using ERP systems to expand its operations in new industry segments not covered by distribution ERP solutions.

[Supply chain suites](https://www.g2.com/categories/supply-chain-suites): Supply chain management (SCM) suites can be very similar to distribution ERP, with a few notable exceptions. Firstly, SCM suites do not include modules for accounting and finance. They also usually provide advanced features for logistics operations such as transportation, which aren't always included in distribution ERP software.

#### Software Related to Distribution ERP Software

Related solutions that can be used together with a distribution ERP software include:

[E-commerce platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/e-commerce-platforms) **:** While some distribution ERP systems allow users to set up their e-commerce stores, integrating with more robust e-commerce platforms will allow users to access a broader range of features. This also enables users to link their inventory to achieve increased accuracy in the depiction of stock levels.

[Accounting](https://www.g2.com/categories/accounting) **:** Since financial management features of distribution ERP solutions can be limited, integration with accounting software is often required. For instance, distribution ERP solutions may provide invoicing and cost management functionality but don't always cover requirements such as intercompany transactions or revenue optimization.

[Sales](https://www.g2.com/categories/sales) **:** Sales and CRM features such as lead generation and marketing campaigns aren't always included in distribution ERP software, which is why distributors often need to integrate their ERP with CRM and marketing automation tools.

[Core HR](https://www.g2.com/categories/core-hr) **:** As mentioned above, a distribution ERP software may include HR features such as payroll, but advanced functionality requires integration with talent management or core HR software. Distributors may also choose to buy separate payroll software for specific business needs such as global payroll.

[Retail POS](https://www.g2.com/categories/retail-pos): Many distribution ERP systems include point of sale (POS) features. When POS is not part of ERP, users can seamlessly integrate the ERP system with POS software. When a customer makes a purchase, this automatically updates inventory levels in stores and tracks that product's sales performance.

### Challenges with Distribution ERP Software

While a distribution ERP software helps close many visibility gaps within a warehouse and across the supply chain, it comes with its own set of challenges. From implementation time to cost, users should be aware of these potential issues, which can impact any company's bottom line in the distribution industry.

**Cost** : The biggest issue with any distribution management software is its expensive nature. With the average price of an ERP software ranging in the thousands, it may be a costly sum for any small or growing business to incur. The price varies based on the number of users on each ERP system, with the cost dramatically increasing with every new user. On the contrary, it should also be noted that ERP software is meant to last at least five years or longer within a business's technology stack. For companies that have the financial means, this may prove to be an intelligent investment. This is primarily because ERP systems cover all business processes through one software rather than introducing the need to install many disparate solutions.

**Implementation time** : ERP software takes a long time to implement across all departments. It may take anywhere from a few months to a couple of years as users shift from old legacy systems that likely housed all of their distribution data. Users should be aware of these long implementation times and practice patience when it comes to implementation.

### Which Companies Should Buy Distribution ERP Software?

As opposed to industry-agnostic ERP software, this type of software focuses on the business needs of the following type of companies:

**Wholesalers and distributors:** Medium and large manufacturers have departments or divisions in charge of distribution when they don't outsource logistics operations. These business units may need a separate ERP system from the other departments, and it's not unusual that manufacturers use multiple ERP solutions for different purposes. 

**Manufacturers** : Medium and large manufacturers have departments or divisions in charge of distribution when they don't outsource logistics operations. These business units may need a separate ERP system from the other departments, and it's not unusual for manufacturers to use multiple ERP solutions for different purposes. 

**Retailers:** Many distribution ERP solutions provide retail features such as POS, which allow retailers to use the same system for all in-store activities and front-office and back-office operations. These features enable retailers to look up customer part numbers and vendor part numbers quickly. Additionally, the POS system accepts various payment types to ensure that every customer has their needs met.

[**Third-party logistics providers**](https://www.g2.com/categories/distribution-erp/f/third-party): 3PL companies manage logistics operations on behalf of their customers. A distribution ERP system allows them to manage the inventory of their customers and the movement of goods from suppliers to the end users.

### How to Buy Distribution ERP Software

#### Requirements Gathering (RFI/RFP) for Distribution ERP Software

The requirements list should include essential features needed by the buyer to manage operations. When buyers already use accounting software they don't intend to replace, requirements for financial management should not be included in the list. Instead, requirements for integration between the ERP software and the existing accounting software should be part of the requirements list.

#### Compare Distribution ERP Software Products

**Create a long list**

A long list should include all options that may provide the buyers with the functionality they need. The long list should consist of both distribution ERP software and ERP systems with logistics modules if the buyer is a manufacturer.

**Create a short list**

The best way to create a short list is to eliminate products from the long list using criteria, such as the software's delivery model or the vendor's global presence. Buyers may also eliminate vendors that are not willing to respond to their RFIs or RFPs.

**Conduct demos**

Demos should focus on how each product provides real-time data and supports distribution activities such as replenishment and warehouse operations. It is also essential to evaluate how user friendly a software is. The user experience is critical for all types of users, from regular employees to managers and mobile employees like truck drivers.

#### Selection of Distribution ERP Software

**Choose a selection team**

The selection team includes managers from all departments that would benefit most from using the software, such as procurement, logistics, warehouse, and inventory management. The team can also include members of other departments that will use the system, such as sales, accounting, and HR. Also, complex selection projects may require a dedicated project manager and external consultants with experience in the field.

**Negotiation**

The products on the short list are usually very similar, so buyers need to negotiate with each vendor to make a final decision. The price of the software is an integral part of the negotiation process, as well as the services that the vendor provides.

As vendors tend to bundle software and services together, buyers need to evaluate the value of their offering, not only its cost. For instance, low-cost software that only provides basic features for distribution may offer less value per dollar spent than a more expensive advanced solution that includes customization and unlimited support.

**Final decision**

All things considered, the estimated ROI of the software is the most crucial factor when making the final solution. While vendors usually provide an estimated ROI of their software, buyers should request proof that holds the vendor accountable for their offering. For example, buyers can ask to talk with companies similar to theirs to evaluate how the software helped them. A food distribution company should not accept references from wholesalers in other industries such as fashion or electronics.

### What Does Distribution ERP Software Cost?

While the pricing of distribution ERP is usually straightforward, buyers should try to identify any hidden costs. For instance, electronic data interchange (EDI) functionality is included, but it requires configuration for different trading partners. 

If buyers plan to expand their operations, they should know how much it will cost them to add new users or implement the system in a new location.

#### Return on Investment (ROI)

The estimated ROI mentioned above can be compared with the actual benefits of the software, such as cost reductions or increased sales volumes. 

### Implementation of Distribution ERP Software

**How is Distribution ERP Software Implemented?**

Distribution ERP software implementation requires careful planning, a dedicated team, and multiple activities, such as data migration, configuration, testing, and training.

**Who is Responsible for Distribution ERP Software Implementation?**

The selection team members are usually involved in the implementation since they already have some experience with the software. Vendor partners can be involved when the system is implemented in multiple locations or business units. Vendors also generally provide a dedicated project manager for complex implementations.

**What Does the Implementation Process Look Like for Distribution ERP Software?**

A phased implementation is preferable for complex operations across multiple locations, such as global manufacturing companies with logistics divisions. The locations or business units that benefit most from using the software should be implemented first. A distribution center should be up and running before manufacturing facilities relying on it start using the system. 

**When Should You Implement Distribution ERP Software?**

The implementation of distribution ERP software should have a minimum impact on the operations of the buyer. For example, distributors whose peak season is during the winter holidays should avoid implementing new software during this time.

Buyers also need to be ready for the implementation of the new system. This means that the company has enough employees to use all the components of the software. The data that needs to be transferred to the new system should be up to date and accurate. While vendors can help with data cleansing, the buyer is responsible for activities like inventory counts. A distributor should not start using a new software unless they know exactly how many products they have on hand for each location, storage at external warehouses, or in transit from suppliers.

### Distribution ERP Software Trends

Some significant trends permeating the distribution market include increased visibility and more automation across the supply chain. Here are some trends that may emerge in the foreseeable future of distribution ERP software:

**Omnichannel retail**

Omnichannel retail is a growing trend that allows customers to shop and return items through various retail channels. For example, a customer can buy a product online and then return that item in a physical storefront for a refund if they are dissatisfied with the item. For businesses, this means keeping track of that particular item with barcodes and item numbers to account for the fact that the product has been purchased and returned. Distribution ERP systems help improve inventory visibility to help them keep track of the available products in stock.

**Internet of things (IoT)**

IoT technologies further help warehouses and distributors maintain visibility on the whereabouts of their entire inventory. For example, distributors can attach radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags to essential or higher-priced products to have complete visibility over them until they are sold. With RFID tags attached to products, customers also have real visibility into a product's exact location at any given time. This helps with delivery ETAs and notifications on any delays with a product's shipment.
