Importing Is Easy. Knowing How Much Each Product Cost in Your Warehouse, Not So Much.
An importing distributor does not manage only merchandise. It manages timelines, currencies, customs brokers, carriers, wholesale customers, and margins that are defined long before the container reaches its destination. The problem is that most of these variables are managed in separate spreadsheets, scattered emails, and estimates that rarely match reality at closing time.
The most common breaking points are:
- Landed costs calculated manually, or worse, calculated after the sale, with spreadsheets that are not updated in real time.
- Unrecorded exchange rate fluctuations that distort the real margin of each import.
- Merchandise in transit invisible to the sales team, which cannot commit stock or plan deliveries in advance.
- Documentation scattered across emails, physical folders, and disconnected systems, with no clear traceability of each shipment’s status.
- Outdated sales prices that do not reflect the latest import or the current exchange rate.
- Distribution without visibility: trucks leaving without route optimization or confirmation of real stock availability.
Inventiva unifies this entire flow in a single platform, from the supplier order to the customer invoice.
Pillars that make our software the only solution you need:
Precise Import Costing (Landed Cost)
Stop using spreadsheets to know how much each product cost:
- Automatic allocation of expenses (international freight, insurance, tariffs, customs broker) distributed among products by value, weight, volume, or quantity.
- Integration of third-party expenses by linking customs broker and carrier invoices to the import folder.
- Configurable multi-currency support in dollars, euros, or any currency, with exchange rates automatically applied to costing and exchange differences.
Digital Import Folder
The status of each shipment, visible to the entire operation in real time:
- Status tracking (In Transit, In Customs, Released, Received) with centralized visibility.
- Import history with suppliers, products, associated expenses, and key dates.
- Sales anticipation: the commercial team sees what is on the way before it reaches the warehouse.
Inventory, Reservations, and Pricing
- Reservations of in-transit stock to commit merchandise that has not arrived yet.
- Traceability by batch and serial number for products with expiration dates or warranty tracking.
- Dynamic price lists automatically updated according to the cost of the latest import or the current exchange rate.
Sales Force and Distribution
- Mobile pre-sales and direct sales on tablets so salespeople can operate in the field.
- Dispatch logistics organizing order release, picking, and truck assignment.
- Integrated electronic invoicing in compliance with current tax regulations in Paraguay.

Usually starting with landed cost calculation and import folders, which are the biggest pain points.

Customers and import history with validation.
Training for purchasing
Logistics, sales, and administration with role-specific training.
Intensive support during
The first shipments processed with the new system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the system automatically calculate the landed cost of each import?
Yes. Freight, insurance, tariff, and customs broker expenses are distributed among the products according to the criteria your company defines (by value, weight, volume, or quantity).
Can I see the status of my shipments in real time?
Yes. Each folder has an updatable status, visible to logistics, sales, and management.
Can I commit stock from an import that has not arrived yet?
Yes. The system allows you to reserve in-transit merchandise for specific customers.
How does multi-currency management work?
The system supports operations in any currency. The exchange rate is configurable and automatically applied to import costing and exchange difference records.
Are sales prices automatically updated when the cost or exchange rate changes?
Yes. You can configure dynamic price lists linked to the cost of the latest import or the current exchange rate.
Does the mobile sales force work without an internet connection?
It operates using the device’s data connection. We recommend reviewing this specific point during the demo, according to coverage in your distribution area.
Does the system adapt if we have specific distribution processes?
Yes. We assess the processes before implementation, and when there is a need that goes beyond the standard modules, we develop it custom.
