Order entry for distributors and manufacturers in India

Tally sales order automation for every customer order

OrderDak is order-entry software for Indian distributors, wholesalers and manufacturers who use Tally. It reads the orders your customers send on WhatsApp, by email, as PDFs, Excel sheets and photos, checks each one against your price list, credit limits and stock, and turns it into a Tally sales order your team approves in one click. It is free for your first 3 months; after that you pay only for what you use, at our cost.

No card needed. After 3 months, pay only for what you use.

Watch it work

See OrderDak handle real orders, in under two minutes

A pasted WhatsApp order read in seconds, an order held for its credit limit and released with a reason, a phone photo of a printed order, a duplicate caught, and an approved order ready for Tally. Recorded on a sample company with sample data.

Read the transcript

Your customers send orders on WhatsApp, by email, as PDFs, Excel sheets and photos. Someone types every one into Tally. OrderDak does that work, and checks it.

Every order lands in one inbox, however it arrived. OrderDak reads each one in the background and sorts it: ready to approve, needs review, or not an order at all, like this payment message.

Paste a WhatsApp order, and within seconds it's read: the buyer, the items, the quantities, matched to your own stock items in Tally.

This customer is over their credit limit, so the order waits for you. Every line was matched and checked: rates, stock, pack sizes, duplicate PO numbers, the GSTIN, and IGST because the buyer is in another state.

Release the hold with a reason, and the reason is kept on record. Approve, and it becomes a Tally Sales Order. Import the file in Tally, or let the OrderDak bridge on your Tally PC create it.

Photos and scans of printed orders work too. Anything read from a photo comes to you for a quick check, and OrderDak spotted that this order was already received as an Excel file.

Every step is on record: who read, changed and approved each order, in a log that can't be quietly edited.

Free for your first three months. Then you pay only for what you use. Start at OrderDak dot com.

Who it's for

Made for businesses that take orders all day and run on Tally

Distributor and stockist owners

"Orders come in on ten WhatsApp groups and someone types every one into Tally. Some get missed."

Take more orders a day without another person to type them. Every order is in one list, and credit limits are respected.

Order-desk staff

"I copy item names and quantities from chats and PDFs all day, and check rates from memory."

Stop retyping. OrderDak reads the order and you only check the lines it flags, then approve.

Manufacturers selling to dealers

"Dealers send POs in their own formats, and we sometimes enter the same PO twice."

Dealer POs are entered once, at the right rate, with duplicate PO numbers caught before they reach Tally.

How it works

Three steps from message to Tally

  1. The OrderDak inbox with orders from email, WhatsApp, PDF and photos

    1. Send orders in

    Forward order emails to your own OrderDak address, paste a WhatsApp chat, or upload PDFs, Excel sheets and photos of printed orders.

  2. An order in review with a line flagged for a check

    2. Check what OrderDak flags

    It reads each order, matches lines to your Tally stock items and checks price, credit, stock, pack size, duplicate PO numbers and GST. Unclear lines are marked, never guessed.

  3. An approved order shown as a Tally Sales Order

    3. Approve into Tally

    One click turns a clean order into a Tally Sales Order. Import the file in Tally, or let the OrderDak bridge on your Tally PC create it (beta).

Questions

Frequently asked

More detail on security and data and pricing, or see all questions.

What is OrderDak?

OrderDak is order-entry software for distributors, wholesalers and manufacturers in India. It reads the purchase orders customers send on WhatsApp, by email, as PDFs, Excel sheets and photos, matches them to your Tally stock items and customers, checks price, credit limit and stock, and creates the sales order in Tally Prime. Your team only reviews the orders that need them.

Is it really free?

Yes. Your first 3 months (90 days from sign-up) are free, with everything unlocked and no limit on orders. You don't need a card to start.

What happens after 3 months?

You pay only for what you use, at our cost with no markup, from a prepaid balance you top up with ₹200, ₹500, ₹1,000 or ₹2,000. Reading one order costs about ₹0.25 (est.). We email you on day 75, 85 and 90, before anything changes.

Do I need a card?

No. You sign up with your email and a 6-digit code. You only add money to your balance if you keep using OrderDak after the free 3 months.

Which software does it work with?

Tally Prime 3.0 or later (beta), through an import file or the OrderDak bridge on your Tally PC. Busy and Marg get their own import files (beta), and any other software gets an Excel export. Zoho Inventory is in development.

Can it read Hinglish WhatsApp orders?

Yes. Typed WhatsApp orders in English and Hinglish, including several messages that make one order, are read today. Paste or forward them. A direct WhatsApp Business connection, handwritten slips and voice notes are in development.

Does the AI post orders into Tally by itself?

No. The AI only reads the order. Matching and the price, credit and stock checks are plain rules you control. Orders reach Tally only after they pass your rules or a person approves them.

Is my data safe?

Each company's data is kept apart from every other company's, sign-in uses one-time codes sent to your email, and every change to an order is written to an audit log. Your orders are not used to train AI models unless you choose to allow it.

Who is behind OrderDak?

OrderDak is made by Surge Software Solutions Private Limited in Bengaluru. The founder is Venu Gopal Reddy Muvva.

Can I talk to a person?

Yes. Ask the assistant at the bottom right. If it can't answer, leave your email and the founder replies, usually within 10 hours. You can also write to [email protected].
