CalWin Word Quotes
makes it possible to
send an ordinary CalWin quote to a
dealer in ordinary Word format.
The dealer can open the quote in Word and can adjust prices with mark-ups and discounts, so that the dealer’s price and the total amount of the quote replace the manufacturer’s price.
The quote to the end customer is printed out with the dealer’s logo, so that the manufacturer’s name does not necessarily appear.
Once the mark-up and discounts have been registered, the document is converted into a standard Word document that can then be edited with additional information including new product lines from the dealer’s own range. It is a very simple and effective aid for facilitating and furthering cooperation between the manufacturer and the dealer. No program other than the almost universal Word is required and there are no special knowledge requirements. So getting started is quick, simple and cheap.
CalWin Word Quote can make the sales work more efficient both for the manufacturer and the dealer, thus enhancing sales prospects.

CalWin Price List is a valuable
supplement to the calculation function in
CalWin.
Several price lists may be built up in this module for different requirements, e.g. customers and groups of customers. Consequently it can be operated using different prices for different markets and to different customers, without much manual work and follow up being required. There are no restrictions on the number of different price lists that can be set up.
The price lists may be linked to all types of products and are used by CalWin during entering of item lines, when quotes or orders are being registered. When the product in the item line corresponds to a price list product, the price is retrieved from the price list. For other products the price is drawn from the calculation.
CalWin Price List simplifies pricing, so it also makes the work involved in registering quotes and orders easier. Price setting takes place automatically and efficiently; simultaneously the pricing of new products can be evaluated and adapted individually using CalWin's calculation function. At all times an overview is provided of the real margin on the product or the whole order.
In this way the firm’s earnings may be influenced continually through sure and effective management of list prices and flexible and tailored pricing for other products.

CalWin Requirement Calculation
module enables automatic
calculation of the requirement for raw
materials, semi-finished items and
finished products.
Timely ordering of required items is assured using CalWin Requirement Calculation, and production goes as planned, because the necessary raw materials and other merchandises are always in place when required.
Because it is CalWin that monitors the Requirement for items, purchases may be limited to those items that will be used within a short time. So the stock balance is optimised, which in turn means reduced storage space and less tied-up capital.
When CalWin Requirement Calculation is used in combination with the stock and purchasing modules, a complete stock and purchasing function is achieved that ensures good oversight and minimal and cost effective stocks.

EDI invoices the next time the invoicing
procedure is run
More and more of our customers have received requests to send their invoices electronically to their customers. The invoice is delivered electronically directly, or via third party message partner, to the recipient’s purchase or ERP system. This avoids potentially costly manual procedures.
This module uses the EDI architecture in CalWin and therefore is total open for any required data format. This brings electronic invoicing to all in the industry who require it, right now. If new formats are needed, it is easy to adapt and can be done outside CalWin by standard off the shelf software systems (XML mapping).
Functions
Transfer EDI from your invoice journal entries

CalWin Multi-Location
is a unique solution
for businesses with several locations for
production, stocks or sales.
Whether everything takes place within one legal entity or whether there are various legal entities. CalWin is therefore just as suitable for the very biggest manufacturers with many units and users, as it is for smaller, stand-alone factories with a few users.
A sales location may just function as a sales outlet and all item lines must be linked to a production site or be sold from stock. A production location may use the current production models in CalWin, through item lines being placed in batches at the chosen site. />
As many locations as required may be used. The system can be set up with different functionality for each location. An order may consist of items that are produced at several locations, with automatic internal invoicing between them. Shipment may go to the customer direct from the manufacturing unit concerned, or the items may be collected in one place for simultaneous shipping of all order lines.
Each location has its own numerical series for quotes, orders, invoices, purchases etc. As a starting point, the various locations do not “see” quotes, orders and purchases from other locations, but there is substantial flexibility in the setup here as well.
CalWin Multi-Location is a very advanced solution, which takes care of all data flows between the units, provides for maximum utilisation of all spare production capacity, administers shipping and monitors all inter -company financial affairs between the units.
The firm’s management receives all relevant information from a single system, which facilitates speedy and correct decision-making.
There are no limits to the number of locations or the number of users in such a solution. The Oracle database that underpins the solution ensures quick and secure handling and storage of all data.
CalWin Multi-Location replaces solutions that normally have to be assembled by combining several partial solutions. By drawing all important business operations together in a single solution, time spent on operation and data exchange is saved, central information is concentrated in one place and the system handles all data traffic seamlessly without the need for integration solutions and data exchange.
