We don't just sell software.
We join you on the warehouse floor.
Most inventory systems are built by people who have never stepped inside a bustling warehouse or a high-stakes jewelry boutique in Addis Ababa. We built Smooth specifically for Ethiopian importers, distributors, and jewelers — matching the exact way you handle stock, credit, and partnerships.
Built for the way Ethiopian businesses actually sell.
Stop trying to force Western software to understand Ethiopian business. Smooth natively tracks the entire lifecycle of informal delivery sales — where you lend stock to trusted partners, let them sell what they can, and settle up without a spreadsheet in sight.
- → Lend stock to partners and track it separately from floor inventory
- → Seamless processing of returns for anything unsold
- → Instant, automatic invoicing for whatever was actually sold
- → Full history of every delivery relationship, per partner
Protect your business from the inside out.
Define exactly who sees what with rock-solid roles and permissions — and make sure no one, at any level, can move stock or approve their own transaction without sign-off. Owners get total visibility; staff get only the buttons they need.
- → Keep supplier costs, profit margins, and client accounts restricted to management
- → Sales staff see only the transaction tools relevant to their job
- → Every purchase order, transfer, or stock adjustment requires manager approval
- → Zero bypass — no unauthorized stock movement ever hits live inventory
| Permission | Sales Staff | Warehouse | Manager | Owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Process a sale | ✓ | ✕ | ✓ | ✓ |
| View supplier cost price | ✕ | ✕ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Approve stock adjustment | ✕ | ✕ | ✓ | ✓ |
| View total profit reports | ✕ | ✕ | ✕ | ✓ |
Move as fast as the market does.
In a market constantly reacting to USD fluctuations, fuel hikes, and import regulation changes, you need to reprice in seconds — and close price-comparing buyers before they walk to the next shop.
- → Update prices instantly across categories, sub-categories, or single items
- → Protect your margins against sudden macroeconomic shifts
- → Generate professional proformas on the spot for comparing buyers
- → One click converts a proforma into a completed sale — no re-typing, no errors
Keep selling — even when the infrastructure doesn't cooperate.
Power cuts, network drops, and POS failures shouldn't mean lost sales. And your most valuable stock shouldn't be sitting on the shop floor waiting to be sold to the wrong customer.
- → Issue manual paper receipts when systems go down, no sales lost
- → Reconcile offline sales later with a dedicated manual-billing module
- → Lock and reserve high-value stock for VIP or trusted distributors
- → Reserved items are automatically pulled from the active sales floor
A new container shouldn't cost you days of typing.
Manually entering every item, serial number, and variation from a shipping container is slow and a recipe for human error. Upload the supplier's Excel sheet and let Smooth do the rest.
- → Upload the supplier's shipping container Excel sheet directly
- → Instantly update inventory with 100% accuracy
- → Save days of mind-numbing manual data entry per shipment
- → Works the same way for purchase order item lists
Your commercial secrets stay entirely yours.
Unlike cheap cloud systems that pool your data with everyone else, every Smooth customer gets a completely dedicated application instance and isolated database — with total transparency over every action taken inside it.
- → A dedicated instance and isolated database, never shared or pooled
- → Automated daily backups with a rolling 14-day history
- → Deep audit logs on every click — invoices, prices, stock, everything
- → Know exactly which employee did what, when, and from where
No one moves stock without your sign-off.
Eliminate unauthorized stock movements for good. Any purchase order, warehouse transfer, or manual inventory adjustment sits in a queue until a manager or owner explicitly approves it — nothing touches your live stock levels before that.
- → Every purchase order, transfer, or adjustment routes for approval first
- → Live stock levels update only after a manager or owner signs off
- → Closes the loophole staff could otherwise use to move stock quietly
- → Owners keep total control without babysitting every transaction
Every quote is one tap away from becoming revenue.
Issuing proformas for price-comparing buyers is a daily necessity. Generate a professional proforma on the spot, and the moment the buyer gives the green light, a single button turns it into a completed sale — no re-typing, no errors.
- → Generate a polished proforma in seconds for any comparing buyer
- → One click converts a confirmed proforma into a completed sale
- → The same reference number carries through — nothing gets re-typed
- → Removes the manual re-entry errors that complicate reconciliation
Never accidentally sell what's already promised.
Use flexible delivery status to instantly lock and reserve high-value stock — fine jewelry, high-demand imports, anything limited — ensuring it's saved exclusively for your most trusted distributors.
- → Lock any high-value item the moment it's promised to a partner
- → Reserved stock is pulled from the active sales floor automatically
- → Works for fine jewelry, high-demand imports, or limited allocations
- → Protects VIP relationships from a well-meaning staff member selling it first
Every click leaves a trail you can trust.
Deep-level logging and audit trails track every action taken across the entire system. If an invoice is altered, a price is changed, or stock disappears, you'll know exactly which employee profile did it, at what time, and from which terminal.
- → Deep-level logging captures every action taken across the system
- → See exactly which employee profile made a change, and when
- → Know the exact terminal or device a change came from
- → Nothing can be quietly altered or deleted without leaving a trace
