ERP development · Inventory software
Inventory management software in the UAE has one job: to give the sales desk, the warehouse, the online store and the accountant the same stock figure at the same cost. When each keeps its own count, the business oversells, writes off stock it cannot find and prices without knowing its margin. Next Orbit offers, implements and supports e-tijariX, whose inventory module keeps catalogue, stock, costing and movements in one database that every other module reads.
Quick answer
Inventory management software in the UAE keeps one stock figure per item per warehouse, values it at true cost and moves it with every quotation, sale, purchase, transfer and count. e-tijariX, which Next Orbit implements and supports, does this with multi-warehouse stock, FIFO costing and FEFO for items with expiry, lots and recall trace, serial and IMEI tracking, and units of measure with their own barcodes. Bins by zone, aisle, rack and level, pick lists by walking route and cycle or blind counts on a mobile scanner that works offline keep the warehouse accurate. Minimum and maximum rules raise purchase requests. Every movement posts to the ledger, so stock value and the books agree. Where a business needs conveyor, scale or 3PL integration, Next Orbit builds a custom warehouse layer.
What we deliver
Pick a deliverable to see what it covers and the part of the stack behind it.
Deliverable 01
Stock is held per warehouse and per bin by zone, aisle, rack and level, with put-away suggestions on receipt and pick lists ordered by walking route. Transfers between warehouses are tracked in transit. Reservations hold stock for accepted quotations and online orders until they ship.
From the stack
Deliverable 02
Every receipt carries its purchase cost, and each sale consumes the oldest layer first. Cost of sales and stock value are therefore traceable to a supplier invoice. Items with expiry use FEFO. Count variances post at the FIFO cost, and profit is visible on every invoice.

Deliverable 03
Cycle or full counts, optionally blind, run on a phone or scanner and keep working when the warehouse has no signal. Labels print in Code128, EAN-13, QR and GS1 SSCC formats, on A4 or label stock, as PDF or straight to a Zebra printer.
From the stack
Deliverable 04
Batches with expiry dates give a recall trace from supplier to customer. Serial and IMEI numbers are tracked per unit for electronics and phones. Units of measure such as piece, box, carton and pallet each carry their own barcode and convert on receipt and sale.
From the stack
Deliverable 05
Minimum and maximum rules raise purchase requests automatically. AI demand forecasting that knows the GCC calendar, including Ramadan, Eid and the Dubai Shopping Festival, suggests what to reorder. Suggestions become draft purchase requests in one click and flow into purchasing with approvals.
From the stack
Deliverable 06
Industry presets set up categories and specification templates for electronics, auto parts, building materials, FMCG, fashion and general trading. The same stock serves the B2B and B2C online store, so the ERP for trading companies and the storefront never disagree. Every movement posts to the ledger automatically.

Part of our ERP development service. The same architecture-first process, quality control and support apply; tell us the problem and one of our expert engineers will map it to a plan.
Discovery CallWe deliver the work from one office in Dubai and serve clients across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the whole UAE and the GCC.
Implementation covers your catalogue and units of measure, opening stock with costs, warehouses and bins, barcode labels, replenishment rules and the first stock count. Storekeepers, sales and finance are trained on their own screens. Where a custom warehouse system is the better route, our engineers build it and connect it to your ERP.
Stock counted in a spreadsheet, sold from a store with its own figure and valued by an accountant at an average cost nobody can trace back to a purchase.
One stock figure for every channel, a reservation the moment a quote is accepted, true cost on every sale and a replenishment request before the shelf runs empty.
Catalogue and unit setup, opening stock with costs, warehouses and bins, barcode labels and scanners, replenishment rules, the first full count and training for every team.
Architecture-first
Before a line of production code is written we draw the system: the people who use it, the services behind it and the systems it must talk to. This reference architecture from our ERP development practice is the starting point we adapt to your operation.

It must hold one stock figure per item and warehouse, value stock at a cost the auditor can trace, and reserve stock for accepted quotations and orders. It must also support counts by barcode and post every movement to the ledger, with VAT handled on the sale and purchase. e-tijariX does all of this inside the same system as sales, purchasing and accounts.
Yes. Inventory management software in the UAE has to serve Arabic-speaking storekeepers, so e-tijariX works in Arabic and English, with bilingual product names and descriptions and right-to-left screens. Stock documents such as transfer notes and goods received notes print in either language or both. Storekeepers and sales staff can each use the language they prefer.
Each warehouse holds its own stock, bins and counts, and branch-scoped access limits what each team sees. Transfers move stock between warehouses with an in-transit stage, and the online store sells from the warehouses you choose. Reports consolidate stock value by warehouse, category and brand for the group.
Yes. Cycle and full counts run on a phone or handheld scanner and continue offline, syncing when the connection returns. Counts can be blind, so the counter does not see the expected quantity. Variances are posted at the FIFO cost with an audit trail of who counted what and when.
Because the margin on each sale depends on what that stock actually cost, and supplier prices change with exchange rates and freight. FIFO consumes the oldest purchase first, so cost of sales and closing stock value tie back to supplier invoices. That supports VAT and Corporate Tax workings. This is not tax or legal advice.
When the operation depends on hardware or partners the ERP does not talk to: conveyors, weighing scales, automated storage, cold-chain sensors or a 3PL billing model. Next Orbit builds that layer with its custom software and IoT teams and connects it to e-tijariX or your existing ERP through APIs.
Yes. The Migration Centre imports products, variants, barcodes and stock with cost from Tally, QuickBooks, Zoho, Odoo, Xero, Sage, Shopify or any spreadsheet. A test import writes nothing, and cut-over checks confirm that stock value matches your old system before sign-off. See migration to e-tijariX.
