Built for how chemicals move.

True margin, not spreadsheet margin.

Spreadsheet margin dies the day a supplier moves cost under you. ShelfCycle rebuilds it from the documents themselves, so the number on the order is the number in the books.

  • Landed and delivered cost per product, weighted from what you actually paid
  • Margin per order, per line, and per customer, next to the price book that quoted it
  • Price drift flagged when a supplier invoice disagrees with the cost you quoted from

Accounting that ties to the bank.

A complete double-entry general ledger is built in, designed for chemical distribution from day one. When the warehouse moves, the books move with it.

  • COGS broken into its parts: product, freight, duty, and processing, per order and per lot
  • Correct a lot cost and it cascades through every blend, repack, and shipment that touched it; the ledger trues up automatically
  • Bank statements reconcile line by line, and payments find their invoices

Orders that enter themselves.

Forward a purchase order, drop in a PDF, or read the order over the phone. ShelfCycle drafts it; your team approves it.

  • Customer, terms, dates, and every line mapped to your products
  • Knows the part numbers each customer uses for your products
  • Anything it is not sure about gets flagged for a human before the order is saved
