Below is the step by step process that you need to perform for Distribution System setup:

Step 1 - The person in-charge (Admin) will have a username and password for accessing the site. This will be provided by EzeeMoney. The Admin staff need to access the following site: - http://ke.ezeemoney-co.com/SC

Step 2 - Admin to create Terminal Profile, must create minimum one (1) NEW profile. Profile is used as an identification to identify the terminal with sales person, van or store or region. For example, if merchant has 2 vans and 2 terminals, he may need to create 2 profiles - example Van 1 and Van 2. Alternatively, you can use the van's plate number such as Van ABC123 and Van CDE234 for easy identification.

A master profile already created name Master Inventory. Master Inventory is where a TOTAL stock or products in the entire warehouse or store is maintained. From this Master Inventory, a stock is moved from warehouse to a van (for example). That is why you need at least one new profile.

If you have more than 1 terminal, you need to create another new profile.



Step 3 - Admin to assign the Profile created to the terminal. For example, profile Van ABC123 will be assigned to Terminal ID 52B3D65C.
 

Step 4 - Admin to set maximum Credit Limit (Amount) and Credit Term (No. of Days). Select Configuration. Note: this setting is required if the merchant give credit to its customers. Any credit amount or term given will not exceed the maximum setting here. If merchant does not give credit or term to any of its customers, please input zero "0" in the field.
