Distributor rates aren’t retail rates
The same SKU quotes differently to a 50-unit buyer and a 5,000-unit one. That logic usually lives in someone’s head, not on a price list a machine can read.

B2B enquiries priced from your rate list, not from memory
The volume slabs — who gets the 500-unit rate, where the break sits — usually live with one or two people, so every RFQ waits for them. Ordder reads the enquiry and prices it from the same rate list, without the queue.
What this actually looks like
"Need 500 pcs of the 40mm MS bracket, ex-factory + freight to our Nashik warehouse. What’s your best rate?"
Ordder matches the SKU in your catalogue, applies your volume-tier rate for 500 units, adds your delivery rule for Nashik, and sends a priced quote back — with CGST/SGST or IGST split correctly for the buyer’s state.
Why this desk breaks first
The specific way manufacturing enquiries go wrong
RFQs arrive as one WhatsApp line
"Need 500 pcs of the 40mm bracket, Pune delivery" has a product, a quantity and a location buried in prose — and it has to be read correctly before anything can be quoted.
A quote that’s wrong on GST comes back
Inter-state supply is IGST, intra-state is CGST+SGST split at half the rate each. Get the place of supply wrong and the buyer’s accounts team rejects the invoice.
What Ordder does about it
Built for how manufacturing actually sells
Reads a one-line RFQ
Product, quantity, unit and delivery location are extracted from ordinary WhatsApp or email phrasing — no structured form required from the buyer.
Prices from YOUR catalogue
Quotes are built from the rate list and delivery rules configured in Ordder, not a generic template — including your own invoice numbering series.
Yes → invoice, automatically
A buyer confirming the quote raises the GST invoice immediately, numbered in your own series, with no one re-typing the order.
Big or ambiguous orders go to a person
A quote above your high-value threshold, or a request Ordder isn’t confident reading, is handed to a rep with the full thread attached — not auto-sent.
GST, specifically
GST rates vary by HSN code, and Ordder doesn’t assume one — the slab is set per product in your catalogue, applied automatically, and split CGST/SGST or IGST by the buyer’s place of supply.
Questions people actually ask
- Can Ordder quote different rates to different distributors?
- Yes — pricing tiers and any custom fields you need to collect (like a distributor code or PO number) are configured per business, not fixed by the product.
- What happens to an enquiry Ordder can’t confidently price?
- It asks one clarifying question — for the single missing detail, not a generic form — and if it still can’t resolve it after a few tries, it escalates to your sales team with the full conversation attached.
