Software for textile importers
An importer lives between two measurement systems, two currencies of expectation, and a mill lead time long enough that a mistake made today is discovered three months from now.
Two unit systems, one set of books
Mills in Korea, China and Italy ship in metres and quote per metre. Your customers buy yards. Enter goods the way the mill shipped them and the system converts using exact international factors, keeping the original entry for reconciliation against the mill’s packing list.
Unit prices convert with the precision the arithmetic actually requires. A price rounded too early drifts by cents per yard, which becomes real money across a container.
Dye lots survive the journey
Each shipment lands as rolls inside their dye lot, so months later you can still tell a buyer exactly which lots you hold and how many yards of each — the question that decides whether you win a repeat order.
Money that arrives from a factor
Invoices can be assigned to a factor with the recourse clock running from the invoice date. A watchlist shows what is approaching recourse, and a chargeback puts the customer on credit hold automatically rather than after someone notices.
Questions
- Can we receive in metres and invoice in yards?
- Yes, and the reverse. Receiving accepts either unit, and each customer can be billed in their own. The amount owed is identical regardless of which unit the document prints in.
- Does it handle factored receivables?
- Yes. Invoices carry a factor assignment and a recourse date, there is a watchlist for invoices approaching recourse, and recording a chargeback places the customer on credit hold.
