Materials Management

Materials Management provides control over manufacturing costs, the sale and delivery of materials, and trucking expenses. Complete integration from the scale through printing invoices allows more material tickets to be handled more quickly with fewer errors. Production is sent on demand, which amounts to daily job costing and invoicing for improved cash flow.

In Materials Management, internal trucking and hired hauler costs are automatically sent to Job Cost on a daily basis, and vouchers are automatically created to facilitate payment to truckers.

Perpetual inventory is automatically tracked. This helps when forecasting raw material needs based on awarded jobs and quotes. Tracking and analyzing the Cost of Goods Sold for your material operations has never been easier. Materials Management is designed to make accounting for your material operations an automated process, which eliminates costly errors and provides timely, relevant management information.

Materials Management streamlines the handling of materials:

Material Billing provides an integrated billing solution with the special requirements of the material producer in mind: the ability to track and implement different contract types and multi-faceted billing functionality to meet each customer's needs.

Product Cost controls manufacturing for material producers. This StreetSmarts component is designed to treat a production facility as a profit center. Product Cost allows contractors to monitor costs of production and maintains inventories of produced and purchased plant materials.

Third-Party Scale Interfaces are available for computerized scale operations such as Libra, Celtec, WEN, Command Alcon, JWS, and others. This interface brings ASCII formatted information to the Remote Billing host system and eliminates the need for duplicate ticket entry, saving valuable processing time and reducing errors. All information received by the host system is fully editable.

ScaleSmarts is designed for scale operations that require independent daily operation while maintaining centralized pricing, credit, and customer control. ScaleSmarts handles ticket pricing and can be directly interfaced to the scale device for immediate recognition of gross and tare weights.
