Distribution & Wholesale

Move product faster with fewer hands on it.

Distributors win on velocity, accuracy, and margin per SKU. Dynamics 365 ties together warehouse management, advanced pricing, and EDI so you can scale lines and locations without scaling headcount.

Where Distribution & Wholesale Teams Get Stuck

The operational gaps we see most.

Fragmented warehouse operations

Paper picks, manual put-away, and disconnected scanners cap throughput and inflate error rates.

Margin erosion on long-tail SKUs

Static pricing rules and tribal-knowledge discounts quietly destroy margin on the items that should fund the business.

EDI sprawl

Each big-box customer brings new ASN, invoice, and chargeback rules. Fragile point-to-point integrations break under pressure.

Demand forecasting across channels

Wholesale, B2B portals, and DTC pull from the same inventory pool — without unified planning, you stock out on bestsellers and overstock dead inventory.

FAQ

Distribution & Wholesale questions, answered.

Can Dynamics 365 manage multiple warehouses and 3PL relationships?

Yes. SCM supports multi-site, multi-warehouse, and 3PL operations with full visibility into in-transit inventory, ownership, and consigned stock. Business Central handles simpler multi-location setups with extensions for advanced 3PL workflows.

How do you handle EDI for big-box retailers?

We integrate via SPS Commerce, TrueCommerce, or custom Azure Logic Apps depending on volume and complexity. Every transaction is logged in Dynamics 365 with full reconciliation against expected vs. shipped vs. invoiced.

Which Dynamics 365 ERP fits my distribution business?

Business Central typically fits distributors under ~$200M revenue with 1–3 warehouses. Above that — or with complex trade agreements, multi-currency, and global subsidiaries — Supply Chain Management is the right call.
