opsPhlo is the trade ERP for physical commodity traders. Contracts, hedges, stock, shipments and accounting sit in one place, so your position and your P&L by contract are current every day, not rebuilt in a spreadsheet at month end.
opsPhlo is for companies that buy and sell physical commodities and carry the contract, the shipment and the price risk themselves: grains and oilseeds, softs such as cocoa, coffee and sugar, metals and ores, energy, fertiliser and food ingredients.
Most of them run on spreadsheets plus an accounting package, or a general ERP that holds invoices but not contracts, hedges or shipments. opsPhlo replaces the spreadsheet in the middle with one system the whole team works in: traders, operations, risk and finance.
A cargo splits, a price fixes, a counterparty pays late. In a spreadsheet, the position and the P&L catch up days later, and month end becomes a reconciliation exercise across three files and an accounting system.
In opsPhlo, every event is recorded once, on the trade it belongs to. The contract, the hedge, the stock, the freight and the invoice stay linked, so the numbers you look at in the morning are the numbers your accountant closes on.
Book a demoBuilt by people who have run and built trading systems inside commodity houses, for the way a physical desk actually works.
Long and short by commodity, contract and location, derived from the deals themselves rather than typed into a separate sheet.
Purchase price, freight, duty, finance costs and FX land on the deal they belong to, so you see the margin per trade before month end.
Futures, options and FX hedges allocated to contracts, with mark-to-market on open positions, so the risk view covers both sides of the book.
Built on Acumatica, so receivables, payables, multi-currency and multi-entity accounting are part of the same system, not a bolt-on.
Lots, warehouses, quality and weights tracked from purchase to delivery, with shipment and document status on the same record.
Contract templates and approval rules mean a trade is entered once and flows through to shipment, invoice and settlement without re-keying.
Go live with the core trading desk first, then add entities, modules and books as your priorities change. No big-bang project.
Dashboards and reports out of the box, plus access to the underlying data so your team can build its own without waiting on a vendor.
Purchase and sale contracts on fixed, basis or unpriced terms, with pricing, fixations, quality clauses and shipment terms. Templates keep every deal consistent.
