The Smart Way To Buy Scrap

Back Office
The Back Office module provides all of the behind the scenes functionality that supports the other modules. These include file setup and maintenance, option configurations and management reporting. The menus are divided into 5 categories, Master Files, Views, Reports, Cashier and Maintenance.

It is in this module that you generate the source information to transfer to your General Ledger. Please read this important information.

Master Files
Master files setup is critical to the proper operation of the system. The setup page covers the instructions for setting up these files. This is also where sales contracts are setup and maintained.

Views
Under the View menu:
Ticket status - this enables you to check the status of any ticket (closed/paid/void etc.,) for diagnostic purposes
Commodity purchases - this is an on-screen view of purchases by commodity
Customer purchases - this is an on-screen view of purchases by customer

Reports
Under the Reports menu there are a variety of reports on commodities, customers, purchasing, cashier activity, as well as exception and shipping reports.

Cashier
Under the Cashier menu, a user with sufficient security clearance may:
Add or remove cash
Record cleared checks
Write off unpaid tickets
Closeout a drawer
Daily closeout report - quick snapshot of the day
Roll history
Accounting Transfer

Because the option for cash drawers is turned off in the demo software. When you try to add cash or get reports from this section you may get a message to the effect that you are not logged in to any drawers, or that no drawers are open at this time. To fully evaluate this aspect of the software, use Back Office; Maintenance; Setup; Program Options to turn on drawers and Back Office; Maintenance; setup; Drawer Maintenance to set up the drawers for use.

Maintenance

The system setup is done under the Back Office section of the program. If you wish to review different setup options, please link back to the Setup page.
