Is this for van sales or for scheduled deliveries?
Both. A round is a list of stops with stock on a vehicle. Whether the quantities were agreed in advance or decided at the door, the settlement is the same: delivered, part-delivered, or returned.
Horizon213 homeDistribution rounds
The van leaves loaded and comes back reconciled
Distribution is not a delivery note printed at a desk. Goods and cash leave the building together on a van and have to come back accounted for. Horizon213 treats the round as the unit: what was loaded, what each stop took, what was returned, and what is in the bag at the end.
01
Sending the round out
The load is recorded before the van moves, so the stock is out of the depot and on the round.
- Build a round from the stops it will make
- Load the van, with the stock moving out of the warehouse
- Print the round sheet the driver actually carries
- The round sheet prints in Arabic, French or English
02
Settling each stop
Every stop ends in one of two ways, and both are recorded.
- Delivered in full, in part, or brought back
- Cash collected at the stop recorded against it
- What the customer refused returns to stock, not to a note in a pocket
- Each stop can be settled as it happens or on return
03
Closing the round
The round closes when the goods and the money both agree.
- Count the bag against what the stops say was collected
- Unsold stock returns to the warehouse as a movement
- The difference is shown, not absorbed
- The round's sales sit in the same ledger as counter and invoice sales
The guides for this
Written for somebody doing the task, with screenshots of the real screens.
- Load a van and send a round outPick a driver, a date and the delivery notes to load, then print the sheet the driver takes with them.
- Print the round sheetThe paper the driver takes out — the stops in order, what to collect, and where to sign.
- Answer a stop: delivered or brought backRecord what happened at each door, and post the cash the driver collected against the invoice.
- Close a round and count the bagEnd the day by counting the cash the driver brings back against what the stops say was collected.
Questions people ask
What if the driver has no phone signal?
The round sheet is printed and carried. Stops can be settled on return from the sheet, so the round does not depend on coverage along the route.
Does returned stock go back automatically?
It goes back when the round is closed, as a recorded stock movement, so the depot balance and the round both stay explainable.
