In addition there are a lot of useful functions, like copying of drawings, the automatic creation of graduated lengths as well as a mesh cutting optimization.

Extensive drawing lists show you which drawings still have to be produced, supplied and invoiced as well as which drawings have already been produced, delivered and invoiced.

By a steady control of agreed tonnage a warning on screen will be shown if tonnage will be exceeded. Just so validity dates of all price lists are steadily controlled and exceedings are indicated with a warning.

The bending forms can be created by the user himself at any time very easily. Concerning the differences in dimensions the user can decide if these are to be calculated automatically or manually.
All position data are separated according to production data and sales data.

There is the opportunity to communicate with external systems via an import/export-interface.

The Commercial Part is structured into the following main steps:

Main Dates
Business Partner
Contracts
Drawing management
Delivering units
Cargos
Incoming invoice
Stock management
Printing tags
Delivery note
Invoice

Main Dates

When initializing the system most of the main dates are input and must never be changed. For example Products, Group of products, Tag colour, Type of freight and so on.

Business Partner

Business Partners are the sum of all companies you have contact to, e. g. customers, suppliers, freighters and so on. Each customer must be created only once in the system even he has more than one contract. Each business partner can have several contact persons. This function can be used as a telephone directory.

Contracts

At the contract level you describe the contract:

Name of the construction site
Delivery Address
Customer
Price
Payment conditions
Some other characteristics

With this information the system now only needs the informations about the drawings and all the invoices will be printed correctly.

Drawing Management

For each drawing the right contract must be selected. The drawing can be splitted into serveral ‘Structural Elements’ (Sub-drawings) for which you can define the total number of pieces for delivery. After input of the positions you can check the input with two functions:

Resume is the short summary for the drawing
Steel list is a position list (on screen or printer) including the graphical shape

Delivering Units

After the input of drawings you can create the delivering units. Here it can be defined which ‘Structural Elements‘ with how many pieces you must or want to deliver at this date. Each tag which will be printed later gets a serial number.

Printing Tags
You can print the tags selected by the delivering units. Within the delivering unit there is the sort order diameter, straight/bended, the drawing number and length.

Cargos
With this function you can define with which truck you want to deliver which delivering units. This defined cargo is the basis for printing delivery note and invoice.
