My Office Apps, a California-based software company founded in 2014 that develops Kechie ERP for manufacturers and distributors, has added a route sales capability to its Kechie Inventory Management module. The feature is designed for businesses that sell directly from trucks or vans, a distribution method known in food and beverage and similar industries as Direct Store Delivery, or DSD.
The core change is how truck inventory is classified within the system. Rather than treating vehicles as a separate category that syncs periodically with warehouse records, the new module incorporates trucks as live inventory locations within the same environment. A sale completed on a route updates warehouse stock levels and financial records at the moment of transaction, without batch processing or manual data entry at the end of the day.
Drivers can check product availability, add new customers and complete sales from a mobile device while on the road. Each transaction flows into the warehouse and accounting modules as it happens, giving warehouse staff current visibility into what has been sold without waiting for drivers to return or file reports.
Mariam Komeili, CEO of My Office Apps, said the feature addresses a recurring request from existing customers: "Our customers kept asking for the same thing, one system that works the same way whether a sale happens in the warehouse or out on a route. Now it does, in real time, without anyone re-entering the same order twice."
The route sales capability joins existing Kechie Inventory Management features including multi-location inventory, lot and serial tracking, and cycle counting. Kechie ERP connects inventory, purchasing, sales, production, warehousing and financials in a single cloud environment and is not limited to any specific industry.
