## Typical workflow: Wholesale and distribution

1. Add customers and suppliers, or import them from a spreadsheet.
2. Send a quotation and convert it into a sale when the buyer accepts.
3. Record purchases from suppliers so stock is added when goods are received.
4. Record payments in and out, then check balances per contact and the sales reports.

## Using it in the Gulf

Gulf wholesalers often work with several warehouses and credit customers. Configure the tax rate and currency for your country, track what each contact owes and email PDF invoices to buyers in English or Arabic.

Tax rates and currency are set per account. Inventorious is not a certified e-invoicing or tax filing system, so confirm local requirements with your accountant.

## Wholesale and distribution: common questions

**Can a quotation become a sale?**

Yes. A quotation carries items, tax, discount and shipping, and converts into a sale so you do not retype it. Stock and payments then follow the sale.

**Can I see what each customer owes?**

Yes. Payments in and out are recorded against the document, and the outstanding balance is shown per customer and per supplier.

**How do returns work?**

Sales returns and purchase returns are linked to the original document and put stock back correctly, so counts stay accurate.
