ERP development · e-tijariX for traders
e-tijariX is an ERP for trading companies in the UAE that puts twelve modules on one database: online store, sales and quoting, CRM and service, marketing, catalogue and inventory, purchasing, dealers and wholesale, HR and payroll, finance and banking, UAE tax and e-invoicing, contracts and e-signature, and reports. Next Orbit offers, implements and supports it for importers, distributors, wholesalers and dealers. This page walks through those modules in the order a trader meets them, from the first enquiry to the salary file.
Quick answer
e-tijariX, offered, implemented and supported by Next Orbit, is an ERP for trading companies in the UAE built for importers, distributors, wholesalers and dealers. Sales and quoting takes an RFQ to quotation, proforma, tax invoice, delivery and receipt with an AI Quote Assistant and margin guard. Catalogue and inventory holds FIFO or FEFO stock across warehouses, bins, lots and serials. Dealers and wholesale runs online applications, a KYC vault, tiers and credit terms. Finance, VAT 201, PINT AE e-invoicing and payroll to WPS SIF complete the cycle.
What we deliver
Pick a deliverable to see what it covers and the part of the stack behind it.
Deliverable 01
The AI Quote Assistant reads an RFQ or BoQ from PDF, Excel, email or text and drafts the quotation within margin. The quote then becomes proforma, tax invoice, delivery and receipt without re-entry.
From the stack
Deliverable 02
Stock sits per warehouse and bin at FIFO cost, FEFO where goods expire, with lots, serial and IMEI tracking, kits, GS1 labels and offline barcode counts. Demand forecasting that knows the GCC calendar suggests reorders.
From the stack
Deliverable 03
A reseller applies online, uploads documents to the KYC vault and passes risk review before a tier and credit terms are granted, then orders through the portal at their own prices. See dealer portal software.
From the stack
Deliverable 04
General ledger, AR and AP, FX revaluation and 22 UAE bank statement formats with smart matching. VAT 201 comes from live data and PINT AE e-invoices go through accredited providers. See e-invoicing software.

Deliverable 05
The labour-law wizard applies a policy profile for UAE mainland, DIFC, ADGM or free zones. ROTA, leave, gratuity and GPSSA feed a payroll run that produces the WPS SIF. See UAE payroll software.

Discovery CallNext Orbit works from one office in Dubai and serves trading houses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the rest of the UAE and the GCC.
A trader rarely switches everything on at once. Most begin with quoting, stock and finance, then open the dealer portal and the storefront once the catalogue is clean. Industry presets for equipment, electronics, auto parts, phones, building materials, FMCG, fashion and general trading shorten setup, and the Launch Centre tracks each step to go-live.
Sales and quoting carries each deal from quotation through proforma and tax invoice to delivery and receipt, so a trader never re-keys lines between a quote tool and an accounting package.
Catalogue and inventory values every unit at FIFO or FEFO cost across warehouses and bins, with lots, serial and IMEI numbers, kits, GS1 labels and offline counts feeding the same ledger.
Dealers and wholesale lets a reseller apply online, pass risk review through the KYC vault, receive a tier with credit terms and then order at their own prices in the dealer portal.
UAE tax and e-invoicing prepares VAT 201 from live data and PINT AE e-invoices, while HR and payroll runs the labour-law wizard, ROTA, leave and payroll to a WPS SIF that posts to the books.

Its modules follow how a UAE trader works: RFQ to quotation with margin guard, stock at FIFO cost across warehouses, a dealer portal with KYC and credit terms, purchasing with three-way match, VAT 201 and PINT AE e-invoicing, and payroll to WPS SIF. Eleven industry presets set up the catalogue for the goods you actually sell. See e-tijariX.
Most distributors switch on sales and quoting, catalogue and inventory and finance and banking first, because those three settle the stock figure and the ledger. Dealers and wholesale, the online store and the marketing suite follow once product data and prices are clean. HR and payroll can start on day one or join later.
Resellers apply online, upload trade licence and other documents to the KYC vault, and pass a risk review before being placed in a tier with credit terms. They then see their own prices and balances and place orders themselves. Sales staff stop taking orders by phone and WhatsApp, and credit exposure is visible per dealer.
Yes. Supplier bills are recorded in the purchase currency, FX revaluation adjusts open balances at period end, and payments are matched from imported bank statements. Customs declaration figures flow into the VAT 201 boxes for imports. Goods received are costed in AED into the FIFO layers. This is not tax or legal advice.
Yes. Under the Ministry of Finance phased rollout, businesses with revenue at or above AED 50 million appoint an accredited service provider by 30 October 2026 and go live on 1 January 2027; all others appoint by 31 March 2027 and go live on 1 July 2027. e-tijariX issues PINT AE e-invoices through accredited providers and keeps a five-year archive.
Yes. Screens, catalogue names, quotations, tax invoices, delivery notes and payslips are available in Arabic and English with right-to-left layout. Ask e-tijariX answers stock and sales questions in either language with sources, and the 41 guided tours are recorded in both. Each user picks a language without affecting colleagues.
Next Orbit offers, implements and supports e-tijariX from its Dubai office for traders across the UAE and the GCC. The engineers who run the demo on sample data also lead migration, configuration and training, then stay as the support contact. Where a trader needs a process no module covers, Next Orbit builds it against the public REST API and webhooks.
