PrimeBase/Built for/Wholesale & Distribution
Wholesale Inventory Management Software · For Wholesale & Distribution

Inventory and accounting that finally talk to each other.

Wholesale inventory management software that doesn’t need a month-end reconciliation with QuickBooks. One system for goods receipts, vendor bills, customer invoices, batch tracking, and account balances. Plus a vendor portal so suppliers stop emailing about payment, and a customer portal so buyers can pull their own invoices.

The bill nobody totals up.

DEAR and QuickBooks don’t sync themselves. Someone manually bridges them — every week, every GRN, every journal entry. That someone is you.

Here’s what changes

Three things stop happening on Monday morning.

No. 01 · The pain

Reconciling DEAR with QuickBooks takes us two days at month-end.

The fix

One system. No reconciliation ever.

Stock movements and goods receipts post to the GL automatically — no CSV exports, no manual journal entries. Your books are current the moment a GRN is processed.

No. 02 · The pain

Vendors email "where's my payment?" five times a week.

The fix

Vendor portal shows payment status in real time.

Every supplier gets a portal login. They can see which bills are approved, queued for payment, or already transferred — without calling anyone. The emails stop.

No. 03 · The pain

Customer disputes an invoice. The data is in three places.

The fix

One linked record: order, shipment, invoice.

Customer order → picking slip → delivery confirmation → invoice — all on the same record. When a dispute lands, one click shows everything. No digging through DEAR, QuickBooks, and email.
