Where the margin leaks

Paper rounds lose money you never see

  • Cash doesn’t tie out at night Unexplained shortfalls and hours of manual counting
  • Stock walks off the van Shrinkage you can’t trace to a round or a driver
  • Prices keyed wrong at the door Margin given away on every mispriced line
  • Invoices raised days later Cash you’ve earned, stuck for 3–7 days
Where the stock leaks

Stock walks off the van and no one can prove it

  • You load the van blind Drivers run short or carry dead stock, and both cost sales
  • Nobody knows what is on the van mid-round Drivers promise stock they do not have and lose the drop
  • Stock takes rely on a driver counting honestly Shrinkage hides in a number you cannot check
  • A shortfall shows up days later You cannot trace it to a round, a driver or a run
Where the cash slips

Invoicing days later is cash you have earned and cannot see

  • Invoices raised back at the office Cash you have earned, stuck for 3–7 days
  • Carbon-copy invoice books on every van Illegible copies and a week of re-keying
  • Prices keyed by hand at the door Margin given away on every mispriced line
  • Payment recorded on paper Cash that does not tie out to the invoice at night
Where the round leaks

A DSD round bleeds margin across every step

  • Sales, invoicing and cash live in different systems Double entry, broken handoffs and numbers that never agree
  • Cash does not tie out at night Unexplained shortfalls and hours of manual counting
  • Prices and promos keyed at the door Margin given away on every mispriced line
  • Round profitability is a guess You cannot tell a profitable round from one that loses money
How it works

Sell, settle and reconcile — from the van

  1. Sell from van stock

    Live price lists, customer-specific pricing, promotions and a margin floor the driver can’t breach.

  2. Invoice at the door

    A priced VAT invoice raised on the spot from any phone or tablet — no paper invoice book, no re-keying.

  3. Take any payment

    Cash by denomination, cheque (photo), card and bank transfer, recorded against the customer instantly.

  4. Capture proof

    Signature, photos, geo-stamp and timestamp on every drop — built-in ePOD.

  5. Reconcile in ~15 minutes

    Stock, cash and returns auto-reconciled at end of day instead of 30+ minutes of counting.

  6. Catchweight & returns

    Variable-weight lines priced by actual captured weight; returns, crates and credit notes settle the same cycle.

How it works

Load, sell and count — with the stock always tied out

  1. Load the van right

    Pack and load stock onto each van ahead of the run, with recurring templates for the rounds that carry the same lines every day.

  2. See live on-van stock

    Current van inventory shows in real time and depletes as the driver sells, so what the app says matches what is on the shelf.

  3. Transfer between van and warehouse

    Request, approve and fulfil stock moves between warehouses and vehicles, with every movement on the ledger.

  4. Count blind on the app

    Run a blind van stock take with expected quantities hidden, then post the variance — no one working back to a target.

  5. Track crates and trays back

    Returnable crates, trays and kegs are issued and reclaimed against the customer, so the empties come back with the round.

  6. Reconcile at end of day

    Stock, cash and returns auto-reconcile at close, with an EOD inventory report before the van is signed off.

How it works

Invoice, collect and settle — from the drop

  1. Price it right at the door

    Live price lists and customer-specific pricing drive the invoice, with a margin floor the driver cannot breach.

  2. Issue a VAT invoice

    A priced VAT invoice is raised on the spot from any phone or tablet — no paper book, no separate billing machine.

  3. Take any payment

    Cash by denomination, cheque by photo, card and bank transfer, all recorded against the invoice as it is paid.

  4. Handle returns and credit notes

    Raise a credit note for returns or corrections, linked back to the original invoice and settled the same cycle.

  5. Send the invoice on WhatsApp or email

    The invoice PDF goes to the customer automatically, so the office copy and the customer copy are the same document.

  6. Post it to your accounts

    Invoices sync two-way to Sage, Xero, QuickBooks or Dynamics 365, so the sales ledger is current without re-keying.

How it works

Load, sell, invoice and account — one DSD round

  1. Load the van and plan the round

    Pack and load van stock, then plan rounds up to seven days ahead with optimisation and a map view built in.

  2. Sell from the van

    Live price lists, customer-specific pricing and buy-X-get-Y promotions applied automatically, with a margin floor the driver cannot breach.

  3. Invoice at the drop

    A priced VAT invoice issued on the spot from any device — no paper invoice book.

  4. Take payment at the store

    Cash by denomination, cheque by photo, card and bank transfer, recorded against the customer as it is paid.

  5. Account for the round

    Driver-collected cash is checked against the system total and posted as a banking, with returns and credit notes settled the same cycle.

  6. Track round performance

    Set sales targets per round and see the day live on the monitor — completed stops, cash collected and how each round is doing.

Questions

Van sales, answered

Is this cash van sales software?

Yes — cash van is the trade term for exactly this model: the rep sells from van stock, invoices at the door and collects cash, cheque or card on the spot, then reconciles the round at end of day.

Is it a van sales app or a van sales ERP?

Both halves are in one system. The app runs the round; the van sales ERP behind it holds stock, pricing, credit, invoicing and the ledger, so the round reconciles against real books rather than a spreadsheet.

What is van sales software?

A mobile app that lets a driver or rep sell, invoice and take payment from van stock, then reconciles the round back to the office. RouteMagic does this online or offline, as one van sales management system rather than an app bolted onto your accounts.

Is there a van sales application drivers can actually use?

Yes — a mobile van sales app built for one hand on a doorstep, not a desktop screen shrunk down. It works fully offline and syncs when the van is back in coverage.

Is this van sales software for FMCG distributors?

Yes. It is built for FMCG and food-and-drink distributors running their own vans — live pricing and promotions per customer, batch and expiry on the load, and cash, card and cheque collected at the drop.

Does it produce VAT invoices?

Yes — a priced VAT invoice is raised at the door and posts through to your accounts. RouteMagic syncs two-way with Sage, Xero, QuickBooks and Dynamics 365, so your Making Tax Digital VAT return is filed from the accounting package you already use.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. The app is offline-first — drivers keep selling through dead zones and everything syncs when signal returns.

Can drivers take cash and cheques?

Yes — cash by denomination, cheque by photo, card and bank transfer, all recorded against the customer in real time.

How is it different from a basic sales-rep app?

A rep app records visits; RouteMagic runs the whole round — pricing, invoicing, payment, proof of delivery and end-of-day reconciliation — on one platform that syncs to your accounts.

Do you work with distributors in Ireland?

Yes. RouteMagic runs across the UK and Ireland, including customers in the Republic and Northern Ireland. Pricing is shown in GBP here — ask on the demo if you need it quoted in EUR.

Questions

Van stock control, answered

How does van stock control work in RouteMagic?

Each van holds its own inventory that depletes in real time as the driver sells, so you always know what is on every van. Loads, transfers and sales all move stock on a single ledger.

Can drivers do a blind van stock take?

Yes. The app runs blind counts with expected quantities hidden, then posts the variance for you — so the count checks the driver, not the other way round.

Can I trace shrinkage to a specific round or driver?

Yes. The inventory ledger records every movement in and out, so a shortfall ties back to the round, the driver and the day it happened.

Does it track returnable crates, trays and kegs?

Yes. Returnable containers are issued and reclaimed against each customer, so you can see what is out, with whom, and for how long.

Does van stock stay accurate without a signal?

Yes. The app is offline-first — stock updates as drivers sell through dead zones and syncs when signal returns.

Questions

Invoicing from the van, answered

Can I do mobile invoicing from the van?

Yes. A driver raises a full priced VAT invoice on any phone or tablet at the drop, takes payment against it and moves on — no back-office re-keying.

How does this fit with Making Tax Digital?

RouteMagic raises and records the VAT invoice, then syncs it two-way to Sage, Xero, QuickBooks or Dynamics 365 — the MTD-compatible package that files your VAT return. You keep one system of record instead of two.

Do I need a separate billing machine?

No. The invoice is raised from the same app the driver already uses to sell and collect, on any device, so there is nothing extra to buy or carry.

What payments can drivers collect against an invoice?

Cash by denomination, cheque by photo, card and bank transfer, each recorded against the invoice as it is paid.

Does invoicing work without internet?

Yes. The app is offline-first — drivers invoice and collect through dead zones, and everything syncs to your accounts when signal returns.

Questions

Direct store delivery, answered

Is this route sales software?

Yes. Route sales and direct store delivery describe the same round: fixed customers, a repeating call cycle, stock on the van and the sale settled at the door. That is what this runs.

What is direct store delivery software?

Software that runs a DSD round end to end — selling from van stock, invoicing at the store, taking payment and accounting for the cash and stock. RouteMagic does all of it on one platform, online or offline.

Does it include route accounting?

Yes. Van stock, cash and returns tie out per round: driver cash is checked against the system total and posted as a banking, and credit notes settle the same cycle.

Can drivers sell and take payment from the van?

Yes. Drivers sell from van stock, raise a priced VAT invoice at the drop and collect cash, cheque, card or transfer against it.

Does it handle FMCG promotions and volume pricing?

Yes. Buy-X-get-Y and percentage promotions apply automatically at capture, with customer-specific price lists and graduated rebate tiers for volume.

Does DSD run without a signal?

Yes. The app is offline-first — drivers sell, invoice and collect through dead zones, and everything syncs to Sage, Xero, QuickBooks or Dynamics 365 when signal returns.
