What benefits will this software give me?

• Chain Management Software

  Operate and control your branches from your head office without any extra effort.
  
  If you have more than one branch or site or warehouse or factory or shop, there is no other software in the whole wide world that can match the benefits that this software can give you right out of the box.

  Completely automatic branch data synchronization over the internet.

  To automate branch accounting, take the following steps.

  • Purchase computers for each of your branches.
  • Install our software at each of your branches.
  • Purchase a DSL/broadband internet connection for your head office.

  When you have taken these steps, your branches will be fully under your control. Whenever you enter any transaction or master record it will become available at the branches within seconds. Whenever anyone enters any transaction at any of the branches it will be transmitted and integrated with the head office data automatically and without any human command within seconds.

• Branch/Store/Location Accounting

  Check the accounting balances of each branch from the head office.

  What is branch accounting?

  If your company has more than one branch or site or warehouse, accounting for all those branches from the head office, is called branch accounting. Our software automates this process completely. Saving you lots of manual labor in controlling your branches from your head office.

• Branch/Store/Location Inventory Control

  Know exactly what is available at what branches. Keep a close watch on valuable items through perpetual inventory counting to reduce shrinkage. Most people stop using their accounting software for inventory purposes after some time. However in this software inventory is very closely linked to accounting because it uses perpetual inventory accounting instead of periodic accounting, thus any inventory discrepancies are immediately reflected in accounting. That is you can't arbitrarily add or remove inventory like in other software. You must debit or credit some other account like shrinkage for an equal amount, if you debit or credit inventory accounts.

• Branch/Store/Location Profitability

  Know the gross and net profit of every branch. Know the gross profit given by every customer, by every item for any period. Know your gross profit margin for every sale. Gross profit fields are visible only to administrators. Keeping a close watch on the gross profit of every invoice will help you increase it, and will help you identify unprofitable items or customers or branches.

  • Fund transfer to branch
  • Stock request from branch
