From the initial order to the final delivery and payment, SSI Edge provides complete automation and management control for product sales and distribution. Our software is much more than a generic accounting package; it is designed specifically for businesses in B2B-oriented industries such as commercial office products, facility maintenance, contract furniture, plumbing and electrical supplies, retail hardware, and more.
Order Entry
"Item-smart" order entry provides more intelligent, and efficient, order processing. Screen displays and data fields reconfigure automatically based on order type. Choose from three different order flows, each optimized for certain types of products — general supplies, projects (for products that require additional management—scheduled delivery and installation, cost tracking, resource allocation, etc.), and serialized machines and equipment.

Whether you keep a fully stocked warehouse or rely on "just-in-time" fulfillment from wholesalers, SSI Edge includes everything you need to track and manage the products you sell.
