Distribution Management connects inventory, purchasing, warehouse operations, and omnichannel sales in one system, so nothing gets managed in a spreadsheet on the side. With Crestwood, you gain more than the software: you gain an in-house team that configures it around how your warehouse and sales floor actually operate.
A distribution management system connects inventory, purchasing, warehouse operations, and sales into one platform, so stock levels, order status, and fulfillment data stay accurate across every location instead of living in separate spreadsheets and standalone tools. A true distribution management system goes beyond basic inventory software: it gives distribution leaders real-time visibility into stock, automates replenishment and purchasing decisions, and connects the warehouse floor directly to sales and financials.
Most businesses don’t need every module, they need the right combination for how they actually operate. Crestwood has configured these modules across 5,000+ implementations over 27+ years, all handled by an in-house team, so you get a system built around your business instead of a generic template.
WHATS INCLUDED
SEE IT IN ACTION
Premier 1 Supplies, a livestock supply retailer handling high-volume B2C orders, replaced its legacy Sage MAS 500 system with Acumatica’s Distribution Management module. The results, direct from their case study:
“Being able to access data and have the various departments working together in one system is a real benefit. If the warehouse has low inventory for an item, it is immediately exposed to purchasing to place the order for more. We now have real-time visibility to pertinent data.” — Ben Rothe, General Manager and CEO, Premier 1 Supplies

A distribution management system typically includes inventory management, purchase order management, sales order management, warehouse management, and requisition management, connected to financials and reporting so distribution data doesn’t live in a separate system from the rest of the business.
Inventory software usually just tracks stock counts. A full distribution management system connects that inventory data to purchasing, sales, warehouse operations, and financials, so a change in one area (a large order, a vendor delay, a stockout) is visible everywhere else immediately.
Yes. Acumatica’s Distribution Management module supports traditional B2B sales order workflows alongside native commerce connectors for Amazon, Shopify, and BigCommerce, so wholesale and direct-to-consumer channels run through the same system.
Crestwood’s in-house team configures the module around your actual warehouse and fulfillment process, migrates your inventory and vendor data, trains your team, and stays on as your support contact after go-live, backed by 27+ years and 5,000+ implementations.
