Merchandise managementPurchasing, warehouse, inventory and delivery management.
A high-performance merchandise management system forms the backbone of efficient company processes. Zentro supports you right from the procurement stage with structured enquiries, clear price comparisons and automatic order proposals based on minimum stock levels. Item-related supplier conditions, EDI orders and digital delivery date control and goods receipt recording ensure transparency, planning reliability and smooth processes.
In warehouse and delivery management, Zentro offers a complete overview of storage locations, batches and stock reservations. Internal orders utilise free stock in a targeted manner, digital stocktaking with barcode scanners is efficient and paperless. Delivery notes and packing lists take over all relevant order data, including working times and material processes in real time.
Digital material flow processes increase transparency and efficiency in company processes.
Zentro provides all employees in the company with a clear overview of the current status of all orders, which reduces the need for queries and creates transparency. The software makes it possible to monitor material stocks in real time. This means you can see immediately what material is missing, ordered or in stock.
Orders: on the tablet, incoming goods: process digitally.
Our digital goods receipt process creates transparency and efficiency in the company workflow. Delivery notes are photographed on a tablet, digitally compared with the orders recorded in Zentro and marked as "received". This means that information about incoming goods is immediately available to all employees, minimising downtimes, searches and queries.
Paperless materials management: right down to the delivery note.
Incoming goods can be processed completely digitally, eliminating the need for tedious paperwork. This not only saves time, but also reduces errors. Location-independent, digital material recording minimises bureaucratic effort. If required, a digital delivery note can be created or added to directly. Picking and warehouse return postings can also be seamlessly digitalised.

Warehouse management: in the storage tower, project-related and with mobile storage locations.
Zentro's warehouse management software supports you in the efficient organisation of materials in different storage environments. It enables the flexible organisation of storage locations.
The storage locations can not only be organised in different storage types, such as chaotic storage systems, storage towers or high-bay warehouses, but can also be mobile and can therefore be relocated within the warehouse or to other company locations, construction sites or project warehouses. This allows dynamic adaptation to changing requirements and efficient utilisation of the available storage space.
Warehouse management: via QR codes and tablet scan in real time.
- Warehouse management: The software makes it possible to monitor the material stock in real time. You can immediately see what material is missing, ordered or in stock.
- QR code labels and tablet scanning: Material withdrawals become more efficient and accurate as QR code labels are scanned via tablets. This enables fast and accurate booking of goods, resulting in a better level of information, e.g. for timely reorders.

Digital warehouse visualisation for a better overview.
Zentro also offers mobile warehouse visualisation, which ensures that users can easily find what they are looking for, regardless of their location. This flexibility and mobility are key factors in optimising workflow and minimising bottlenecks.
Overall, Zentro helps to increase efficiency in warehouse management by enabling precise inventory management, flexibility in warehouse location and seamless connection to different warehouse systems. This results in improved control over the material flow and ultimately increased overall efficiency of logistics processes.
storage locations via GPS and on floor plan for different locations.
- Storage locations visualised as GPS coordinates and on floor plans
- Cross-location warehouse visualisation
- Colour coding for project-relevant materials
- Storage locations of several sites at a glance
Project-related storage in containers or boxes - also mobile.
The option of setting up project-related warehouses in containers or boxes is particularly practical. The location of these containers can be changed within the warehouse or even moved to another warehouse at a different location. This offers a considerable advantage for construction projects or when parts have to be delivered to external manufacturers. If the location of a storage site is moved, this automatically affects the parts stored there.

EDI interfaces: Automated purchasing processes.
Automation makes your work in purchasing much easier. Interfaces allow you to automatically transfer orders to your suppliers and import order confirmations directly into Zentro.
Zentro also automatically checks delivery dates and prices when confirming orders. Incoming invoices are automatically transferred from the supplier to the ERP.
Zentro is an ERP software that maps all commercial processes in the company and offers integrated parts lists, CRM, capacity planning, time recording and post-calculation, among other things.
Zentro includes various interfaces to CAD and CAM systems, suppliers and accounting.
Our customers come from a wide range of industries, such as carpentry, painting and interior design. In principle, however, the ERP system can be customized for a wide range of industries.
Zentro specializes in order-related calculations. Depending on the phase a project is in, the appropriate costing for materials and working time is carried out.
Plausibility and completeness checks are available for this by automatically adding up working times, purchase and sales prices and automatically calculating mark-ups.
Zentro supports you in scheduling your orders, either through automated backward scheduling or manually via drag-and-drop.
The planned working times from the calculation are transferred to capacity planning. You can also see the utilization of your resources, taking into account feedback from time recording.
Zentro is an enterprise software that can be used in conjunction with various database systems, such as Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL and MariaDB.
The software is used for both Windows and Linux and is also continuously tested for both operating systems.
The data is stored in a relational database on the server (e.g. Microsoft SQL Server). The Zentro Client is a desktop application and platform-independent.
