ProtechBooks for wholesale

Sell on credit
without losing track.

Limits, statements, and a purchase chain that reaches the ledger.

Wholesale is not really a selling problem. It is a credit problem at one end and a buying problem at the other, and most of the businesses that fail at it were profitable on paper the whole time.

What matters in this trade

Built for your counter

Credit customers with real limits

Each account carries a credit limit and an outstanding balance, and the limit does something. Statements go out as statements rather than as a photograph of a ledger page.

The whole purchase chain

Requisition, approval, purchase order, goods received note, supplier invoice, payment, and purchase returns. Each step posts, so the stock and the ledger move together.

Supplier ageing and price history

What you owe and for how long, plus what you have historically paid for a line. The purchase-price trend is how you find the supplier who has been drifting upward quietly.

Goods receiving that updates everything

A GRN raises stock and trade creditors in one movement. No separate stock sheet, no month-end exercise reconciling two records of the same delivery.

Books that are already done

Three-column cash book, profit and loss with COGS and margins against the previous period, balance sheet and a general ledger you can drill from a figure back to the document.

KRA eTIMS built in

Your business customers need proper tax invoices to claim what they buy from you. That is not a nice-to-have in wholesale, it is whether the order continues.

What it does not do

  • There are no customer price tiers. You set a price per product; you cannot hold an A/B/C price list that applies automatically by customer.
  • If tiered pricing by customer class is how you quote, raise it early — it is the gap wholesalers notice first.
Before you ask

Questions we get

Can I set different prices for different customers?

Not automatically. There is one price per product, and a discount can be applied on the line when you sell. There is no A/B/C price list that attaches to a customer. For wholesalers who price by customer class, this is the main gap and you should weigh it before committing.

How does credit control work?

Each credit customer has a limit and a running balance, with statements and outstanding tracking. The dashboard carries credit outstanding, so the figure is in front of you rather than in a file.

Does it handle LPOs from my customers?

The customer's LPO reference is carried on the documents so your paperwork matches theirs, which is what gets an invoice through their accounts. On your own buying side there is a full purchase order chain through to supplier payment.

Will my accountant get what they need?

Yes — this is the part wholesalers underestimate. Every sale, GRN and payment posts through one engine to the general ledger, so the trial balance, P&L and balance sheet are produced rather than reconstructed.

What does it cost?

From KSh 500 a month. Wholesalers with several users and real volume usually need Professional or Multi-branch; the pricing page has the limits on each.
