Van sales, mobile route and last-mile distribution

Van sales and route distribution with an offline-first mobile POS

SalesLife 365 empowers route drivers and mobile distributors with an offline-capable, AI-assisted mobile POS that automates stock loading, route invoicing, instant digital payments and automated end-of-day truck reconciliation.

A route day, from depot to settlement

What happens from loading the truck to reconciling it at the end of the shift.

StartRoute day begins
  1. Depot

    Load the truck

    Stock is issued to the driver and the truck inventory is recorded on the mobile device.

  2. Driver

    Invoice on the route

    Sales orders, invoices and receipts are issued at each stop, even in a network dead zone.

  3. Customer

    Collect payment

    Take cash or instant digital payments and issue the receipt on the spot.

  4. Device

    Queue while offline

    Transactions are stored on the device and queued for upload, so selling never waits for a signal.

  5. SalesLife HQ

    Sync when connected

    The queue replays to head office as soon as the device is back online.

  6. Depot

    Settle the truck

    Cash, digital payments and physical stock are reconciled against the truck at the end of the shift.

The problems on the road

Network dead zones

Routes cross areas with no signal, so connected systems stall exactly where the selling happens.

Inventory leakage on trucks

Without live truck stock, shortages are found only after the day is over.

Slow reconciliation

Cash, mobile money and stock are counted by hand at the depot, so errors surface late.

Manual invoicing errors

Paper invoices and re-keying create disputes and delay collection.

What SalesLife 365 gives your drivers

Mobile POS and truck stocking

Instant digital payments

Take mobile money and other digital payments at the stop, alongside cash.

Instant truck settlement

Auto-reconcile cash, digital payments and physical stock at the end of each shift.

AI-assisted stock loading

Automated, AI-assisted stock loading so each truck leaves the depot with the right range.

Direct ERP settlement

Settlements post to Dynamics 365 Business Central or SAP Business One through SalesLife HQ.

Why offline-first matters on a route

An offline-first design means a sale is never blocked by the network. The invoice is saved on the device first, then replayed to head office, so your drivers sell at the speed of the customer rather than the speed of the signal.

  • Full offline-first transaction processing on low-cost mobile hardware
  • Idempotent replay, so a retried upload never posts a sale twice
  • An audit trail from the first invoice to the ledger entry
  • Role-based access and supervisor approval for discounts and returns
FAQ

Common questions

Does the van sales app work with no network at all?

Yes. Sales orders and invoices are processed offline and queued on the device, then synchronised with head office when connectivity returns.

How does end-of-day truck settlement work?

At the end of the shift, cash, digital payments and the physical stock on the truck are reconciled against what the driver sold, and the settlement is posted to the ERP.

What hardware do drivers need?

SalesLife 365 is designed to run on low-cost mobile hardware. Share your devices and printers and we will confirm fit during scoping.

Can drivers take mobile money payments?

Yes. Instant digital payments are supported alongside cash.

Which ERPs does it settle to?

Dynamics 365 Business Central and SAP Business One, through SalesLife HQ.
