ARTEC INT

Sales, purchasing and inventory

Sales and inventory management software for industry and distribution

When stock is right in the software but wrong in the warehouse, sales, purchasing and stores are not working from the same database.

Sales and inventory management software connects quotes, orders, deliveries, invoicing, purchasing and stock movements in one database. On Odoo, a customer order reserves the goods, the delivery takes them out of stock, the invoice picks up the delivered quantities and the supplier receipt updates the cost, with no re-keying between departments. ARTEC INT configures it to Algerian rules: mandatory invoice mentions, itemised VAT, stamp duty on cash settlements, and stock valuation consistent with the SCF accounting framework. It is built for companies running several warehouses, batches or distribution volumes, not for a shop looking for a till system.

No commitment — you leave with an order of magnitude.

What the solution covers

Sales and invoicing

Quotes, orders, delivery notes, invoices and credit notes in one flow. Customer or channel price lists, discounts, payment terms and reminders. Invoices carry the mentions Algerian law requires (seller's and buyer's RC, NIS and NIF, itemised VAT, total in figures and in words).

Purchasing and replenishment

Requests for quotation, purchase orders, partial receipts and three-way matching of order, receipt and bill. Replenishment triggers on minimum stock or from forecast sales.

Multi-warehouse stock

Several warehouses and locations, inter-site transfers, batches and serial numbers, expiry dates, cycle counts and barcode scanning on a phone.

Valuation and margins

Weighted average cost or FIFO according to your SCF accounting policy, real-time stock valuation, margin per product, customer and sales rep, with journal entries posted automatically.

Scope

Concretely, you get

  • Quotes, orders, deliveries and invoices with no re-keying
  • Compliant invoices: Algerian legal mentions and VAT
  • Real-time stock by warehouse, location and batch
  • Replenishment triggered by threshold or forecast
  • Stock valuation and margins per product and customer
  • Cycle counts and barcode capture on mobile

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from off-the-shelf sales software?

Packaged software covers invoicing and simple stock, and suits a shop well. Once a company has several warehouses, a sales force, production or imported purchasing, its limits show: parallel files, re-keying, wrong stock. Odoo handles these cases in one database, then extends to production, maintenance or payroll without changing tools.

Do the invoices comply with Algerian regulation?

Yes. The invoice template is configured with the mandatory mentions, VAT itemised by rate and stamp duty for cash settlements, then validated with your accountant. Rates are parameters that get updated, not code: a new finance law propagates without redevelopment.

Can our existing products, customers and stock be migrated?

Yes: products, customers, suppliers, price lists and opening stock are migrated from your files or your old software. We recommend starting from a recent physical count rather than a theoretical stock nobody can vouch for.

Our sales reps and storekeepers work on the ground.

That's accounted for: order taking, stock lookup, picking and receiving are done from a phone or tablet with barcode scanning. Stock that depends on someone keying it in at the office at the end of the day is never up to date.

How much does a project like this cost?

Cost depends on the number of warehouses and users, data migration and interfaces with your other systems. We price it after a scoping study, and the project is delivered in phases at a fixed budget.

Make the software's stock match the warehouse
