Beer Distribution Software Pour More Profit Into Every Route
Solid Route Accounting™ is built for the beer industry — keg return tracking, lot tracking, and mobile tools that win the tap handle and keep the shelf full.
Why Beer Distributors
Lose Margin
Without beverage-built tools, the daily realities of kegs, lot numbers, and compliance quietly eat into every case sold.
Out-of-Stocks at Key Accounts
A bar runs dry on a Friday night, and your brand loses the tap handle. Manual par tracking and missed reorders cost you placements and pull-through.
Keg Tracking & Returns Chaos
Kegs walk off, deposits go uncollected, and empties pile up at accounts. Without lot-tracking, every lost shell is pure margin gone.
Freshness, Rotation & Out-of-Code
Craft beer has a clock on it. Without code-date visibility, you're swapping stale product, eating returns, and damaging brewer relationships.
How Solid Route Accounting™ Solves It
From the brewery dock to the bar tap — every feature is designed for the realities of beer distribution.
Organized Beer Delivery Routes
Organized stops by tap-room hours, draft accounts, and chain stops. Hit every bar, restaurant, and retailer on time — every week.
Keg, Case & SKU Inventory
Track full and empty kegs by lot number or barcode, and packaged goods by SKU across trucks, warehouses, and accounts.
Brand & Account Profitability
See which SKUs, brands, and accounts actually make money. Track brand performance and account-level sales trends.
Mobile Tools for Drivers & Reps
Solid Sales Pro™ powers pre-sell, van sales, merchandising surveys, and instant invoicing right from the truck or the bar floor.
ERP & Accounting Integration
Two-way sync with QuickBooks, Sage 100, and SYSPRO. Pricing, AR, and tax-ready reports stay accurate across the board.
Faster Settlement, Fewer Errors
Computer-generated invoices and digital signatures cut end-of-day reconciliation from hours to minutes — no more keg-deposit disputes.
Know What Every Brand & Account Really Earns
Volume isn't profit. Solid Route Accounting™ shows true margin by SKU, brand, and account by tracking brand performance and sales history.

- Accurate per-warehouse inventory tracking makes product reordering easy through your ERP system.
- Instant visibility into beer stock levels helps prevent shortages and surpluses, keeping your beer inventories perfectly balanced.
- The depletion report generated during the daily cashout allows you to easily restock your truck inventory.
