Why it matters

The problem

A brand's ERP ends at the distributor's invoice. Everything after it, the stock on the shelf, the scheme passed on, the retailer who stopped ordering, is a phone call or a spreadsheet away. Usually late, often wrong.

What's left on the shelf?

Stock reports come monthly, by email, in each distributor's own format.

Live stock by SKU, batch and age from every linked distributor.

Did the scheme reach the counter?

Discounts go to distributors and are hoped to pass through.

Schemes applied on the retailer's order at the distributor, line by line.

Is this claim real?

Claims arrive as summaries, checked by hand, months later.

Claims built from the orders and returns behind them.

Which outlets stopped buying?

Reps report what they choose to report.

Outlet-level sell-through and coverage, by territory and rep.
How it works

Link your distributors once. Then watch the channel, not the inbox.

Your distributors run their daily operations in Vinflux. You invite them, they accept and choose what to share, and the data comes up as they work.

Step 01

Invite in bulk

Upload your distributor list. Each one gets a link, a ready account and your catalogue.

Step 02

Map your products

Your codes are matched to theirs once, so stock and sales line up without re-keying.

Step 03

Agree what's shared

Stock, sales, orders and claims for your brand only. Their margins and other brands stay private.

Step 04

Run the channel

Schemes, targets and replenishment go down. Stock, sell-through and claims come up.

What you get

Command of the channel, from one screen.

Distributor network

Appoint, onboard and review distributors and C&F agents: agreements, territories, credit terms and scorecards.

Secondary visibility

Stock, sell-through, ageing and near-expiry by distributor, territory and outlet, with alerts when cover runs low.

Replenishment

Suggested reorders from stock norms, sent as draft purchase orders for the distributor to confirm.

Schemes and claims

Slab, quantity, value, combo and target schemes with budgets. Claims checked against transactions and settled by credit note.

Field force

Beats, visits, orders, targets, incentives and leaderboards for your reps, with orders routed to the right distributor.

Modern trade and key accounts

Chain-store and large-format visits, shelf and display audits, planogram checks and key-account orders, alongside general trade.

Book a walkthrough with the product team. We'll map your channel and run one scheme from launch to claim.

Built on live operations. Vinflux started inside a multi-branch medical distributor that runs its daily orders, deliveries and billing on it. The platform grew from there to every tier of the channel.

What happens on the call

  1. We map your channel: who buys from whom, and where stock, schemes and money get stuck today.
  2. We run one of your real orders through Vinflux, from the order to the payment.
  3. We plan the rollout: masters, opening stock, and which distributors and territories go first.

Questions

Something else? Ask us on a demo call.

Do our distributors need their own Vinflux account?

Yes. Each distributor runs its own account, which is what makes the data reliable: it comes from the records they bill and deliver from. Distributors already on Vinflux simply accept your link; for the rest, we plan the rollout with you.

What if some distributors won't join?

They can send stock and sales as a file or through the API, and it appears next to your linked distributors. Linked distributors give you live data; files give you a regular snapshot.

Can we see a distributor's margins or other brands?

No. You see only your own products, and only the data that distributor agreed to share with you.

Does it work with SAP?

Yes. Primary orders, invoices and claim credit notes sync with SAP Business One or S/4HANA, and also with Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally and Zoho Books.

Can we run our own field force on Vinflux?

Yes. Your reps get beats, visits, order booking, targets and incentives, and their orders route to the distributor that serves each outlet.
