back-to-back trading
One order, two sides.
A broker's order is really two documents: what the customer bought and what you bought to fill it. Kept apart, the margin is an afternoon of reconciliation. Kept together, it is a column.
Atlas Core links the sales order to the purchase orders that fulfil it, line by line, so cost, sell and margin sit on the same screen while the deal is still open.
When a grower short-ships, the shortfall is visible on both sides at once - which is the moment you still have time to source elsewhere.
supplier availability
Twelve availability lists, one catalogue.
Your suppliers send spreadsheets in different shapes, at different times, in different languages. The quote goes out in minutes, so the lookup cannot take an hour.
Atlas Core holds supplier availability alongside your own catalogue, mapped onto the same botanical names, sizes and grades - so one search covers every grower you buy from.
Prices are held per supplier and per season, which means the number you quote from is the number you will actually be charged.
commission you can prove
Paid on what shipped.
Commission arguments are almost always about scope: which orders counted, whether returns came off, whether the unpaid invoice still earns.
Atlas Core calculates commission from the order ledger on shipped and settled value, per agent, per principal and per market - with the underlying lines visible behind every figure.
The statement you send and the statement you receive are built from the same data.
Built for trading without a nursery.
Back-to-back by default
Sales and purchase lines linked at the point of writing, so cost, sell and margin are visible while the deal is live.
Every supplier in one search
Grower availability mapped onto one botanical catalogue, so sourcing a quote is a lookup rather than twelve spreadsheets.
Passports pass through
Origin and passport data travel from the supplying nursery to your customer, so a drop-shipped load is still fully documented.
The shape of the system.
Exporter is the right shape for a broker: trade, delivery, commission and marketing, with no production module you would never open.
Editions are sold per seat with a 30-day trial. We will tell you which one fits before you commit.
Broking and agency, answered.
What is plant broker software?
It is the system for trading plants you never own. Every order is two documents written at the same moment - what the customer bought and what you bought to fill it - with supplier availability from a dozen growers mapped onto one catalogue, margin visible on the line, and commission calculated from what actually shipped. Stock-based nursery software has nowhere to put any of that.
How do you choose software for a plant agency?
Ask three questions. Can a sales line and the purchase line that fills it be linked at the moment of writing, so margin is visible while you can still change the source? Can supplier availability lists be searched as one catalogue rather than one spreadsheet at a time? And does passport and origin data pass through a drop-shipped load to your customer? Bring a live enquiry and have them write it in front of you.
Does it work if I never hold stock?
Yes. Orders can be written back-to-back against a purchase order and shipped direct from the grower, with no stock movement through a site you do not have.
Can I see margin before the order is confirmed?
Cost and sell sit on the same line while the order is still open, so margin is visible at the point you are still able to change the price or the source.
How do I load supplier availability lists?
Supplier lists are held against your own catalogue and matched on botanical name, size and grade, so one search covers every grower you buy from rather than one spreadsheet at a time.
Who issues the plant passport on a drop-shipped load?
The supplying nursery issues it, and the origin and passport data travel with the consignment to your customer - so a load you never touched is still documented end to end.
