Walk through a major apparel exhibition in India. You might visit CMAI in Mumbai, a garment fair in Delhi, or a textile exhibition in Surat.
At almost every wholesale stall, you will see a familiar process.
A dealer picks up a garment and asks about its sizes and colours. The sales representative then takes out a paper order form or opens WhatsApp. Next, they note down the quantities and send the order to the office.
The back-office team must then enter the order into the ERP manually. This can take several days.
Meanwhile, another dealer might order the same style. As a result, the business risks committing the same stock twice.
This process is slow, costly, and difficult to manage. For apparel wholesalers, every order entry error can affect sales. Stock conflicts can also damage dealer relationships. Moreover, processing delays can lead to missed business opportunities.
G-Order helps eliminate these problems by connecting mobile ordering directly to G-Soft ERP.
What Is G-Order?
G-Order is a B2B mobile ordering app built for G-Soft ERP. It connects your field sales team, dealers, retailers, and exhibition stalls to your ERP system.
As a result, orders placed through the app can sync directly with G-Soft ERP. Your team no longer needs to enter every order manually.
G-Order supports three important business functions.
For your field sales team
Sales representatives can take orders during dealer visits and exhibitions. Each order can be sent directly to G-Soft ERP. Therefore, the team does not need to wait until they return to the office.
For your dealers and retailers
Dealers can browse your product catalogue, check availability, and place orders using their phones. They can do this from different locations and at convenient times.
For your back-office team
Orders become available in G-Soft ERP for processing. Consequently, your team can begin the next steps without waiting for paper forms or WhatsApp messages.
The Real Cost of Manual Wholesale Ordering
Manual order processing creates several problems for apparel wholesalers. These problems become more serious during busy exhibitions and festive seasons.
1. Exhibition Orders Contain Errors
A busy exhibition stall may handle hundreds of product enquiries in just two or three days.
During this rush, paper forms can go missing. WhatsApp messages may also contain incomplete details. For example, a style code might be incorrect or a size might be unclear.
The back-office team must then check and correct these orders before processing them.
By that time, the business may have already lost valuable time. In addition, incorrect quantities can lead to dispatch problems.
G-Order helps reduce these errors by capturing order details in a structured format.
2. The Same Stock Gets Committed Twice
Sales representatives often take orders independently. One representative may visit a dealer while another attends an exhibition.
Without a shared, updated stock view, both representatives might promise the same items to different buyers.
The result can be a cancelled order or a partial delivery. Either outcome can affect dealer trust.
With live inventory visibility, your team can make better decisions before confirming an order.
3. Dealers Cannot Track Their Orders Easily
After placing an order, dealers often contact the sales team to ask about its status.
These calls and messages take time. They also distract representatives from visiting dealers and generating new orders.
G-Order gives dealers access to relevant order information through the app. As a result, they can check their orders without relying on repeated phone calls.
4. Order-to-Dispatch Times Increase
Consider a dealer who places an order on Tuesday. If your team enters it into the ERP on Thursday, processing starts late.
The delay can affect stock availability, packing, and dispatch.
This is particularly important during seasonal sales. Retailers need their stock before customer demand peaks.
G-Order helps shorten this process by sending orders directly to G-Soft ERP. Therefore, your team can begin processing orders sooner.
G-Order Key Features
G-Order supports the main ordering needs of apparel wholesalers, distributors, and B2B brands.
Here are its key features and how they help your business.
1. Digital Product Catalogue With Live Availability
G-Order displays your product catalogue on the dealer’s or sales representative’s phone.
Users can browse product images and check available styles, colours, sizes, and applicable prices. This makes product selection easier than relying on style codes alone.
The catalogue connects with G-Soft ERP inventory. Therefore, users can check stock availability before placing an order.
When new stock becomes available, the updated information can help your team respond to demand. Likewise, stock visibility helps prevent orders for unavailable items.
The benefit: Your team can make better-informed commitments, while dealers can select products with greater confidence.
2. Size-Colour Matrix Order Entry
Apparel ordering often involves several sizes and colours for the same style.
For example, a dealer might order a kurta in small, medium, large, and extra-large sizes. The dealer may also need several colours in different quantities.
Entering each item separately can take time. It can also increase the risk of mistakes.
G-Order supports size-colour matrix ordering. Users can enter quantities for different sizes and colours in a structured grid.
This format makes it easier to capture the complete order. It also helps maintain consistency with apparel inventory records in G-Soft ERP.
The benefit: Your team spends less time clarifying quantities and correcting order details.
3. Exhibition and Field Sales Ordering
Apparel exhibitions create opportunities to meet many dealers in a short period.
However, collecting orders on paper can create a large data entry backlog. Sales representatives must first complete the exhibition and then submit their orders to the office.
G-Order helps change this process.
A sales representative can select products from the digital catalogue and enter quantities during the dealer meeting. The order can then sync with G-Soft ERP.
Consequently, the back-office team can start processing orders while the exhibition is still underway.
This is useful for businesses attending CMAI exhibitions, the India International Garment Fair, and regional textile events.
The benefit: Your business can reduce post-exhibition paperwork and start order processing sooner.
4. Dealer Self-Service Ordering
Your dealers may not always be able to contact your sales team during business hours.
For example, a retailer in Nagpur might want to browse a new collection late in the evening. With a suitable B2B ordering app, the retailer can explore products and prepare an order independently.
G-Order enables dealers to browse the catalogue and place orders through their phones.
This gives dealers more flexibility. It also reduces their dependence on sales representatives for routine ordering.
In addition, dealers can check their order information through the app, subject to the available account features.
The benefit: Dealers get a more convenient ordering experience, while your sales team can focus on building relationships and generating new business.
5. Live Stock Visibility for Sales Representatives
Sales representatives need accurate stock information when visiting dealers.
Without it, they may promise products that are unavailable. This can result in partial deliveries, order changes, and unhappy customers.
G-Order connects sales ordering with G-Soft ERP inventory. Representatives can use the available stock information to make better decisions.
They can also discuss suitable alternatives when a particular size or colour is unavailable.
This is especially useful during peak selling periods. Dealers often need quick answers before confirming their seasonal orders.
The benefit: Better stock visibility helps your team reduce commitment conflicts and improve dealer communication.
6. Collection-Wise and Season-Wise Order Booking
Apparel businesses launch different collections throughout the year.
These may include summer wear, festive clothing, winter collections, and wedding wear.
During a new collection launch, dealers often want to review the latest styles before placing orders. Searching through the entire catalogue can make this process difficult.
G-Order supports collection-based ordering, helping dealers find relevant products more easily.
For example, a dealer can focus on the festive collection instead of browsing every available style.
This also helps your business organise advance orders. The resulting order information can support purchasing and production planning.
The benefit: Dealers can discover new collections more easily, while your team gains better visibility into product demand.
7. Dealer-Wise Pricing and Credit Limit Management
Apparel wholesalers often offer different prices to different dealers.
For example, a long-term dealer may receive negotiated rates. Another dealer may purchase at standard prices.
G-Order can use dealer-specific pricing configured in G-Soft ERP. This helps show the applicable prices to the relevant dealer.
Credit limits are also important. If a dealer has outstanding payments, your business may need to restrict additional orders.
Where the relevant credit controls are enabled, G-Order can help apply these rules during ordering.
As a result, your accounts team can manage credit more consistently.
The benefit: Dealer pricing becomes easier to manage, and credit policies can be applied with less manual intervention.

Exhibition Sales Teams
Exhibitions bring many potential buyers together in one place.
However, handling hundreds of orders over two or three days can put pressure on your sales and back-office teams.
G-Order allows representatives to capture orders digitally during the event. The orders can then sync with G-Soft ERP.
Therefore, your team can start processing orders earlier instead of waiting for the exhibition to finish.
Field Sales Representatives
Field sales representatives often visit several dealers in a single day.
Paper order books and WhatsApp messages can make it difficult to manage these visits efficiently.
With G-Order, representatives can record orders directly through the app.
They can also check available stock before confirming an order. This helps improve order accuracy and makes dealer visits more productive.
B2B Apparel Brands With Dealer Networks
B2B apparel brands need strong relationships with their dealers.
However, dealers may become frustrated if ordering requires repeated calls and manual follow-ups.
G-Order offers a digital ordering option that makes product selection and order placement more convenient.
As a result, your business can provide a smoother buying experience while keeping orders connected to G-Soft ERP.

Furthermore, businesses using supported API integrations may be able to connect their wider order workflow with logistics partners, payment gateways, and e-commerce platforms.
The available integrations depend on the business setup and supported configuration.
Why Apparel Businesses Need Mobile B2B Ordering
Apparel wholesale operations involve more than selecting products and entering quantities.
Your business must manage different sizes, colours, collections, dealer prices, and stock levels. At the same time, dealers expect quick responses and reliable deliveries.
Manual processes can make these tasks harder as order volumes increase.
A mobile ordering app helps bring these activities into a more organised workflow. When connected to an ERP, it also helps reduce the gap between order placement and order processing.
For apparel wholesalers, this means better coordination between sales, inventory, accounts, and dispatch teams.
G-Order brings mobile B2B ordering and G-Soft ERP together in one connected workflow.
