Evidence status: this DSR scenario is not a customer endorsement
No customer-approved route records, identity, interview, screenshots, implementation dates, or measured results were supplied for Day 17. This page is therefore a fictional worked example based on documented StockLedger workflows. It explains what a genuine DSR case study should demonstrate, but it does not claim that a named distributor or sales representative achieved any outcome.
1. Customer background: a distributor operating daily DSR routes
The example business is a Bangladesh distributor that receives supplier stock, assigns products to several field representatives, sells through shops, collects current and previous dues, accepts good and damaged returns, and closes each route in the evening. A storekeeper prepares issue records, each DSR carries responsibility for assigned stock and collections, and a supervisor reviews settlement exceptions. The profile is generic and does not identify a real customer.
2. Original problem: stock, shop dues, and route cash did not reconcile
The office knew how much stock left the warehouse but could not quickly explain how much was sold, returned, damaged, handed over, collected from individual shops, or carried as DSR due. Calls and handwritten totals delayed closing, while a missing shop reference could turn a valid collection into an unexplained cash adjustment. Supervisors needed one dated route record from morning issue to closing due.
3. Previous process: issue sheets and settlement totals were disconnected
Morning quantities were written on paper, route collections were noted separately, and evening cash was compared with a manually calculated total. Good returns, damaged returns, discounts, previous due, and SR handovers could be mixed into one adjustment. A verified case study should preserve approved redacted samples of the old issue sheet, route collection record, return note, and settlement calculation so the original control problem is demonstrable.
4. StockLedger setup: define products, routes, shops, balances, and responsibility
The setup requires accurate products, units, pieces per case, working rates, available stock, DSR and SR records, shops, opening shop and DSR dues, finance accounts, users, and permissions. Morning issue selects a date and named DSR, then records products in case or piece quantities without exceeding available stock. Collection and settlement rules, receipt handling, cutoff time, physical-return checks, cash handover, and exception approval must be assigned before live routes begin.
5. Implementation timeframe: prove one route before expanding
A controlled rollout first verifies opening stock and balances, configures one DSR and a small set of shops, and tests a complete morning-issue-to-settlement cycle. The team then rehearses collection, good and damaged returns, extra returns, handovers, discounts, cash receipt, and closing due before adding more routes. A real timeframe depends on product count, case-size accuracy, shop and due data, route volume, users, training, devices, and supervisor availability.
6. Screenshots: capture a single dated route from start to finish
Useful evidence should show the redacted morning issue with DSR, date, products, case or piece quantities and rates; shop-wise collections; good and damaged returns; handovers; cash received; calculated today’s due and closing due; completed settlement; and the related pending-route, collection, return, DSR performance, and due views. The cover on this page is an illustrative StockLedger workflow image, not an authenticated customer screenshot.
7. Results: verify accountability instead of publishing invented improvement
The worked outcome is a traceable route record: issued stock establishes responsibility, returns separate unsold or damaged quantity, shop collections retain their party context, and settlement calculates the remaining due from recorded inputs. Physical stock, damaged goods, cash, deposits, disputed balances, and approvals still require supervisor verification. No percentage reduction, faster closing time, collection increase, or accuracy improvement is claimed without customer data.
8. Customer quotation: pending a sourced and approved interview
No quotation is shown because no customer-approved interview or written statement was supplied. A genuine quotation should come from a recording, email, message, or signed statement; describe the customer’s actual route workflow; avoid claims the evidence cannot support; and receive final approval in English and Bengali. StockLedger-written workflow text must not be placed inside quotation marks or attributed to a fictional DSR.
9. Convert this route example into a verified case study
Choose an active distributor customer, complete the Day 15 verification register, and agree on one representative route and comparison period. Capture the previous process, opening records, training and go-live dates, approved screenshots, exception handling, and source exports for every reported result. The related product guides below define the workflow to test. Publish only after the customer approves identity, business details, images, quotation, measurements, and translations.
