AMTRAX STORE - STORAGE BILLING SYSTEM

A user friendly, Windows-based inventory control system for contract storage operators.

AMTRAX STORE is a simple to use storage system, to control customers' stock by recording all inwards and outwards transactions. As running balances of products are maintained, weekly, fortnightly or monthly invoices for storage charges, devanning charges, handling charges, and delivery charges are able to automatically generated.

The format has been determined after listening closely to the needs of " hands on " Operations Managers, rather than Head Office accountants or other administration personnel, thus the program is specifically designed to be practical, and simple to use.

Background

AMTRAX STORE was written after a customer requested an analysis of available programs. Unable to recommend any of the existing programs, Amtrax decided the only way to meet the customer's requirements was to write the program themselves.

Application Areas

Any Contract Storage operation can be controlled by AMTRAX STORE , although being a PC based system, it is ideal for the medium sized operator (up to 50,000 product lines), but can also handle larger operations when used in a networked multi user environment such as Terminal Services or Citrix.

AMTRAX STORE is flexible enough to calculate storage costs no matter what method of charging is used, for example where the storage charges are based on the highest product count in stock per week.
