What’s New in Ritzy ERP: November 2026
A new look across every module, PostgreSQL 18, a Statements workbench, automatic milestones with a customer tracking link, live chat with a person and much more.
Freight forwarding, liner and marine agency, container tracking, warehousing, inland transport, shipchandling, real estate, payroll — Ritzy has a module for each. Almost nobody runs all of them, so licence only the lines your company actually operates. Whichever you choose, they arrive on one full multi-currency accounting core, with CRM ready to sit over any of them.
No two companies do the same set of things. A freight forwarder is not a ship chandler. A liner agent is not a 3PL yard. A property company is neither. Most operators run two or three of these — so Ritzy covers all of them and you switch on the parts you actually run.
Whichever you pick, Accounts comes with it and CRM sits over the top — one customer master, one ledger, no bridge to build.
This is not a new product learning an old industry. We shipped our first freight system in 1996 — it was called Vision — and it has been in continuous production ever since, renamed Ritzy in 2008 when we rebuilt it on a new database. Ritzy ERP is that same system, re-engineered again for the browser — and widened well past freight, with inventory, real estate, CRM and payroll lines beside the shipping ones, mobile apps, AI-assisted entry, a support assistant built into every screen, and regional compliance.
Staff open a browser and work. No client rollout, no per-machine upgrades, no VPN gymnastics for the branch office or the agent overseas.
Whichever operating modules you licence — forwarding, liner, marine, warehouse, transport, chandling, stock, property — they share the same customer master and the same multi-currency ledger — and the same CRM pipeline, if you run it. Job costing and profitability are a by-product, not a month-end project.
Paste an email — or speak it — into any entry screen and Ritzy reads out the fields for you to confirm: jobs, quotations, vouchers, tenancy contracts, payroll, tariffs and masters alike. CSV import sits behind the same window. The CRM module scores pipeline risk and drafts follow-ups.
Role-based rights down to the form, optional two-factor login, per-device concurrent-user licensing, and a DBA console with its own gated access for backups and upgrades.
Invoices, bills of lading, delivery orders, manifests, tenancy schedules and disbursement accounts print from templates you can edit yourself — visually or in HTML.
Multi-currency throughout, ZATCA Phase-2 e-invoicing for Saudi Arabia, and WCO sea manifest submission for Bahrain Customs — filed from inside the liner job.
Taken from the current build, in the new look. Select any screen to enlarge it.
Every name, company and figure on these screens is made-up sample data.
Eleven operating modules, licensed independently. Each one carries its own job card, masters, dashboard and report pack — and each one settles into the same CRM and accounting core. Start with the line you run today; add another when the business does. Seven of them serve shipping and logistics; Inventory & Trading, Real Estate, CRM and Payroll stand on their own, so a company with no freight at all is still at home here.

Capabilities that work the same way wherever you are in the system — so training one module trains all of them.
In-app messaging plus milestone, overdue-invoice and document-expiry alerts, delivered to the people who need to act.
Templates apply themselves to Cargo, Liner, Transport and Marine jobs. Saving a job, recording a container event or raising an invoice brings the milestones up to date. Send the customer a tracking link you can revoke: it shows progress, with no charges, remarks or other customers’ names.
System-wide file storage linked to masters and transactions, so the paperwork is one click from the record it belongs to.
A visual builder plus Handlebars for invoices, bills of lading and every printed document — edit them yourself, no support ticket.
KPI tiles and live status boards for each operating line, with drill-down into the underlying jobs and vouchers.
Users, groups and a per-form rights matrix, optional TOTP two-factor authentication, and concurrent-user licensing by device.
A financial-year selector in the top bar filters every screen and report, so prior-year enquiry never means restoring a backup. Reports open with the year’s opening balances, and a three-step Year-End Process opens the next year with voucher numbering carried on.
Press Ctrl+K, type a few letters of a screen’s name and press Enter — across every module, its reports and Tools, showing only the screens each user has rights to open.
Drop in an email, a spreadsheet extract or dictation on any entry screen — job, quotation, voucher, payroll run, tariff or master — and Ritzy fills the form for you to confirm. Import a CSV from the same window, with a template to start from.
Photograph a property or a unit, caption and order the shots, add walk-through videos and virtual tours, then send a prospect one link that carries their whole shortlist — flats from different buildings, the photos and videos you picked, by web address or QR code. It expires on the day you set, can be revoked on the spot, and counts its views. They need no login, and they see no tenant, contract or balance.
One look across every module: a coloured band heading each screen, the same summary tiles on every dashboard, and a refreshed sidebar and sign-in. A pipeline stage keeps its colour wherever it appears.
The same toolbar, the same row icons in the same order, and the same 25 / 50 / 100 pager in every module. Double-click opens the record. An action a row cannot take is left out, not greyed out.
The customer, item or vessel is not on file? Press the + beside the dropdown and add it where you stand, on the job, voucher or invoice you are entering. It only appears for users with the right to add.
Tools → Import, or the Import button on a master screen. A full dry run reports required fields, duplicates, existing records to skip or update, and codes it could not match, all before anything is saved.
Pick the report, set the options on the left and work through the accounts across the full width of the screen. Allocate bill by bill from a statement row, a saved voucher or a journal line, across currencies, with exchange differences posted for you.
Balance Sheet, P&L and Trial Balance open expanded or collapsed. Click a heading to fold or open that group. Print and CSV follow what is on screen.
A saved transaction is cancelled, not removed. It stays on record and shows in red, so the numbering and the audit trail stay whole. A master in use cannot be deleted either.
Progressive web apps that install to the home screen from a QR code — no app store, no separate login. An administrator hands them out and turns each one on or off from Tools → PWA Apps, and the QR sits on the screen the app belongs to — on the tenancy contract you hand the tenant, on the collection round, on the employee’s own My HR page. Every one of them carries the support assistant in its top bar, so “how do I do this, here” is answered without leaving the app.
The company's position in a pocket. Ask in words or by voice — cash, sales, profit, who owes you — and get a short answer with the figures drawn as charts.
The question that has no screen behind it. Ask the assistant from anywhere, keep a history of what you asked, and raise a ticket with up to six photos when something needs a person.
Track a shipment from a phone — search by job, HBL/MBL or container, follow the milestone timeline, and subscribe to push alerts as it progresses.
Customer outstanding on a phone. Your customer looks up what they owe and its ageing, then views, prints or shares an individual invoice — without phoning your accounts clerk.
The pipeline in your pocket. Today's follow-ups, the stage board, activity log and tasks — log a visit and move a deal between meetings instead of after them. Photograph a visiting card and the contact is read off it and filed.
The driver's run sheet. Scan the delivery order's QR code, photograph the goods, capture the receiver's signature, and stamp the delivery with a GPS fix.
The notification inbox on a phone. Read and clear alerts addressed to you, message a colleague, and opt in to push so new ones arrive on the right phone.
The tenant’s own account. What is owed and when it fell due, each bill as a PDF, the statement, and a fault reported with photos — from an invitation that expires with the tenancy.
The technician’s job sheet. The day’s maintenance calls, what was found, parts and hours, before-and-after photos, and the tenant’s sign-off — offline until there is signal again.
The condition report, room by room, with photos. A check-out is laid beside the check-in it is being compared against, so what changed during the tenancy is on the record rather than in an argument.
Letting from the flat you are standing in. What is vacant nearby, photograph the unit into its gallery, build a shortlist for the person beside you, and log the enquiry, the viewing or the hold before you leave.
The rent collector’s round. Who to call on, what they owe, a numbered slip at the door, and a bag that is counted and reconciled when it is handed in. It keeps working with no signal and settles up when it returns.
The holiday-let manager’s day. Arrivals, departures and who is staying, bookings from Airbnb, Booking.com and the other portals, a week calendar per unit, check-in, check-out with the invoice, each home’s photos, videos and amenities, the cleaner’s or plumber’s bill entered with a photo, a monthly costs report to share with the owner — and the portals’ calendar links connected from the phone.
Payroll turned around to face the staff. Payslips for every closed month, leave balances and history, a leave request sent up the reporting line — and, for whoever has people reporting to them, the approvals queue.
The storekeeper’s whole day, for the Inventory module. Scan or search an item to see what is on hand and where; receive a delivery against its purchase order, with photos and the driver’s signature; move stock between stores, issue against requests and pick sales orders for delivery; and count the shelves, even with no signal.
The same build, three ways, all on PostgreSQL 18. Your data stays wherever your compliance people need it to be.
Install on a Windows or Linux machine in your own office. The installer sets up PostgreSQL for you, and everything — database, documents, backups — stays on your hardware.
We host it for you on a dedicated instance, reachable from any branch or agent, with backups and updates handled.
A container bundle for teams that already run Linux infrastructure — probe, install, done, with the same admin console either way.
The DBA console imports a whole company from a Ritzy 7 desktop database, attachments included, and reports anything it had to leave out. Your history comes with you.
ABN 78 146 172 705 — building, deploying and supporting business software in the Gulf region since 1994, and operating from Melbourne as Ritzy Solutions Pty. Ltd. since 2011.
Not a startup experiment. We have been writing and supporting business software for over thirty years — through three company names and two continents. The shipping system itself dates from 1996, when it was called Vision; it became Ritzy in 2008 on a rebuilt database, and it has never been out of production.
Those three decades were spent in the Gulf — Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the UAE — plus Hong Kong and India. The compliance, currency and workflow requirements of those markets are in the product because we built it there, not because we read about them.
We moved to Australia in 2011 and registered as Ritzy Solutions. Our customers came with us — the clearest verdict we can offer on whether the software and the support are worth staying for.

You subscribe for the number of seats your team actually needs. Add seats when you hire, and change the plan when the business does — no renegotiation and no capital outlay to justify up front.
Most customers subscribe to two or three of the eleven operating modules. The Accounts core comes with them either way. Add another line later and it appears in the menu — no reinstall, no migration.
Every release, patch and new module reaches you as it ships — there is no separate maintenance contract to renew. Support runs by phone, chat and email from 10am to 10pm AEST, with 24/7 cover for anything critical.
Nothing to download: we send you a private link to your own trial site, and it expires by itself when the trial ends. Run Ritzy ERP with your real data and decide with confidence. No credit card, no obligation, and nothing starts billing until you say so.
Subscription & Billing shows your plan, seats and invoices, and pays them by PayPal without leaving the system. Each company database is licensed and billed on its own, with quarterly and half-yearly cycles available.
The Windows desktop range is licensed differently, and deliberately so: those are perpetual per-seat licences you buy once and keep. See Windows licensing.
Most answers are now inside the software itself. When you need a person, our team is a click away.
A headset button sits in the top bar of every screen, beside Help. Ask in your own words — by keyboard or by voice — and get an answer from Ritzy's own manuals, with a link to the exact page. It knows which screen you were on, so “how do I add a line here?” is a fair question.
It answers about the software, never from your data — nothing is read out of your databaseWhen it needs a person, raise a ticket from the Ritzy Support app — a photo of the screen says more than a paragraph, and up to six can go with it. Your administrators are notified at once, and if the fault turns out to be ours they pass it straight to Ritzy and our reply comes back into the same ticket.
