What Distribution Companies Get When Their ERP Works 

Whether you ship from one warehouse or a network of DCs, Dynamics 365 brings sales, inventory, fulfillment, and finance into one connected system so your team can move faster with fewer fire drills. 

Meet Customer Expectations on Every Order​
  • Promise accurate ship dates and delivery ETAs customers can trust 

  • Proactive order updates and fewer “where’s my order?” escalations 

  • Returns that don’t turn into margin leakage 

Modernize Without the Risk ​
  • Reduce dependency on tribal knowledge and “that one person” 

  • Create repeatable, auditable processes across order-to-cash 

  • Move forward even when legacy support is fading in skills, upgrades, or security 

Get Accurate Inventory Counts Across Every Channel​
  • One inventory truth across locations, channels, and sales teams 

  • Manage demand swings with better visibility and replenishment discipline 

  • Support lot control/traceability without spreadsheet side systems 

Simplify Multi-Warehouse and Marketplace Operations ​
  • Run multiple warehouses and DCs without losing track of availability. 

  • Western Computer's distribution-specific add-ons, including 365ParcelShip, 365CounterSales, and 365ContainerImport, extend Dynamics 365 to address the channel complexity distribution companies face.

  • Sell through Amazon, Walmart, and other marketplaces with native fulfillment rules that don't require workarounds.

Distribution ERP Assessment​

High-volume inventory. Advanced WMS. EDI integrations. Tight margins. 

Before launching a Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain implementation, our Distribution Assessment ensures your system is designed around how your operation actually moves product — not how software demos look. Whether you implement with us or not, you'll get a clear, portable blueprint. 

Clarity Before You Commit. 

In 30 days, we identify the risks that derail distribution projects: 

  • Over-customized warehouse processes 

  • Hidden integration complexity (EDI, 3PL, eCommerce) 

  • Inconsistent item and vendor data 

  • Timelines that outpace your operations team 

What You’ll Receive: 

  • Fit-Gap Analysis (Standard vs. ISV vs. Custom) 

  • Data & Integration Health Scorecard 

  • Phased Roadmap aligned to operational capacity 

  • Realistic Budget Estimate 

  • Governance Framework tied to executive KPIs 

If you move forward with Western Computer for a Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management implementation within 30 days of your final assessment presentation, 50% of your assessment fee will be credited toward your implementation. For example, on a $30,000 assessment, that's a $15,000 credit. 

Reduce risk. Protect margin. Build it right the first time. 

Why Us

Why Distributors Trust Western Computer ​

Over 37 years of experience. We’ve built and supported distribution operations where the hard part isn’t taking orders, it’s fulfilling them. We speak the language of order-to-cash, pick/pack/ship, replenishment, returns, and margin protection, and translate it into a system your team can actually run.  

Built for multi-warehouse and omnichannel reality. From intercompany movement to DC workflows to marketplace and eCommerce integrations, we help you build repeatable processes that fit how your operation actually runs.

Your inventory, ETAs, and financials tell the same story everywhere. Our integration expertise connects ERP, WMS, shipping, EDI, eCommerce, and reporting so your team stops reconciling systems and starts trusting the numbers. 

A partnership measured in years, not go-lives. Distributors don’t have time for “launch and leave.” We stay engaged after rollout with support and optimization that keeps the system healthy as your volumes, locations, and channels evolve. 

  • What ERP software do distribution companies use?

    Most mid-market and enterprise distribution companies run Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management or Dynamics 365 Business Central depending on their size and complexity. D365 Finance and Supply Chain Management handles multi-warehouse, multi-entity, and high-volume operations. Business Central is well-suited for smaller distributors and wholesale companies that have outgrown QuickBooks or Microsoft GP.

  • How does Dynamics 365 help distribution companies?

    Dynamics 365 connects order management, inventory, fulfillment, warehouse operations, and financial reporting in a single system on the Microsoft cloud. Distributors use it to reduce inventory blind spots across locations, automate replenishment, manage EDI and eCommerce integrations, and produce accurate ETAs without relying on spreadsheets or disconnected systems.

  • What is the best ERP for wholesale distribution?

    For mid-market wholesale distributors, Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management are the two most common choices.Business Central handles companies with one to three warehouses and up to several hundred million in revenue. Finance & Supply Chain Management is built for distributors with multi-DC operations, advanced WMS requirements, or complex intercompany transactions.

  • How long does a distribution ERP implementation take?

    Most distribution ERP implementations run between four and twelve months depending on the number of locations, integrations, and the complexity of warehouse and fulfillment workflows. EDI integrations, eCommerce connections, and 3PL relationships typically add time. Western Computer scopes every project in detail before quoting a timeline.

  • How much does a distribution ERP cost?

    Dynamics 365 Business Central licensing starts at $80 per user per month. Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management starts at $180 per user per month. Implementation costs for distribution projects typically range from $75,000 to $500,000+ depending on warehouse complexity, number of integrations, and user count. Use the free pricing estimate on this page to get a range specific to your operation.

  • Can Dynamics 365 integrate with EDI, 3PL, and eCommerce platforms?

    Yes. Dynamics 365 integrates with common EDI providers, 3PL warehouse management systems, and eCommerce platforms including Amazon, Walmart Marketplace, Shopify, and others. Western Computer has built and maintains integrations across all of these categories and can advise on the integration architecture that fits your channel mix.

  • Does Western Computer specialize in distribution ERP?

    Yes. Western Computer has implemented ERP for distribution companies since 1987. We implement both Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management for distributors across wholesale, specialty distribution, and multi-location DC operations in the US and Canada. We are a Microsoft Inner Circle member and a G2 Leader in Microsoft Consulting Services.
