Track every panel from the port to the rooftop.
Purpose-built ERP for solar distributors and installers. Scan incoming containers by pallet barcode, track individual panel and inverter serials across multi-site warehouses, and keep the serial history alive for 25-year warranty claims.

- Barcode serial tracking
- Multi-site warehouses
- No per-user licence fees
- 100%of units traceable by serial, from container to customer
- <24 hto scan in and put away a full container
- 30+panel serials captured in a single pallet scan
- Zerowarranty claims lost for lack of proof
Generic stock software wasn’t built for solar.
Solar equipment has unique supply chain complexities: 40-foot sea freight containers, palletized serialized panels, heavy inverters, and 25-year warranty commitments. Standard ERPs buckle under these requirements.
Generic ERPs & Stock Tools
Slow, manual & expensive
- Treats a shipping container full of 40-foot solar panels as just another generic purchase order
- Requires warehouse staff to manually scan every single panel serial, taking 4+ days per container
- No container-to-pallet-to-panel hierarchy, losing provenance when pallets are broken up
- Relying on separate spreadsheets to track installer RMA warranty claims across a 25-year lifecycle
- Hefty per-user monthly SaaS fees that penalize adding warehouse crew, drivers, and sub-contractors
Solar ERP Suite
Tailored for solar supply chains
- Built-in ocean freight tracking: know exact vessel arrival dates, customs clearance status, and demurrage timers
- Scan one 2D barcode on the pallet wrap to instantly ingest 30+ serialized panels into your database in 1 second
- Full container & bin location tree: know exactly which pallet is on row B, rack 4, level 2 across all your distribution hubs
- Automated 25-year manufacturer RMA claim workflow linked directly to original install photos and GPS tags
- Zero per-user license fees: run unlimited warehouse pickers, sales reps, accounting clerks, and trade customers
From container to rooftop in four steps.
A seamless flow connecting port logistics, warehouse racking, trade sales, and rooftop warranty activation.
Receive the container
Log sea-freight containers against purchase orders. Track vessel arrival, customs clearance, and demurrage deadlines before trucks arrive at your distribution center.
Put away by bin
Forklift operators scan pallet 2D codes with Zebra or Honeywell terminals. Ingest 30+ panel serials in 1 second and assign them to specific warehouse racking bins.
Balance & sell
System automatically suggests inter-warehouse transfers when regional branches run low. Trade installers order online with custom volume tier pricing.
Install & register warranty
Installers scan serials on the roof and snap geocoded site photos. Activates the 25-year manufacturer warranty certificate directly in your ERP database.
Real screens from a live solar deployment.
Designed for the high-volume speed required in commercial solar distribution centers and regional warehouses.
Real-time stock across ports, warehouses and transit
Live view of container arrival schedules, pallet allocations, and bin-level rack inventory. Drill into individual panel batches to see manufacturer watt-peak ratings, arrival dates, and reserved stock.
- Container and pallet nesting hierarchy
- Inter-state stock transfer suggestions
- Live valuation of on-water and on-floor inventory
One system for the whole solar supply chain.
Engineered to resolve the specific challenges of solar panel distributors, inverter importers, and commercial EPC contractors.
Everything a solar distributor runs on
Connect container import logistics, multi-warehouse stock balancing, trade installer credit limits, Zebra mobile barcode scanning, and 25-year warranty tracking into one unified ERP.
Scan a pallet, not every panel
One scan of the manufacturer’s 2D pallet barcode ingests 30+ panel serial numbers simultaneously into your database. Verification takes seconds, not hours.
Find any serial in seconds
Type or scan any panel, inverter, or battery serial number to instantly reveal its import container, bill of lading, shipping date, installer, and site GPS location.
Know what’s on the water
Track incoming 40-foot sea containers. Allocate incoming stock to pending EPC solar projects before the vessel docks at port to maximize inventory turn speed.
A pipeline that speaks solar
Quote projects with panel wattage metrics, inverter pairing compatibility rules, and tiered discount pricing for high-volume commercial installers.
Multi-state warehouse balancing
Set min/max threshold rules for regional distribution hubs. When Melbourne runs low on 440W panels, system suggests transfers from Sydney spare stock.
25-year serial RMA warranty
Manage warranty claims with manufacturer RMA credit tracking. Every claim connects to original install photos, customer invoice, and serial ledger.
Self-service installer trade ordering portal
Allow approved solar installers and electrical contractors to check real-time stock levels, place pallet orders on trade credit, download technical datasheets, and book warehouse pickup slots 24/7.
Built for every link in the solar supply chain.
From the import vessel captain to the rooftop installer holding a screwdriver.
Complete sea-freight to distribution center control
Manage ocean container bookings, customs clearing paperwork, and demurrage schedules. Pre-allocate incoming containers to pending commercial EPC project quotes before vessels arrive at port.
Every claim backed by the full history.
In solar distribution, losing track of serial numbers when an RMA arrives costs tens of thousands in unrecoverable manufacturer credits.
Instant Serial Search
Type or barcode scan any serial number. Instantly view its import container, customs bill of lading, receiving pallet, sale invoice, and installation GPS coordinates.
RMA Workflow & Vendor Credits
Submit RMA claim packages directly to tier-1 panel manufacturers (Longi, Jinko, Canadian Solar) with attached photos and flash test IV curves for rapid credit authorization.
25-Year Lifecycle Storage
Solar equipment guarantees run 25 years. Our database indexes serial records with cryptographic provenance seals so warranty claims remain fully auditable decades later.
White-Label Installer Certificate
Automatically email end-user customers and solar installers a tamper-proof warranty certificate carrying your company logo, registration date, and serial list upon completion.
