Efficient Warehouse and Distribution with Jim2® Business Engine
The advanced technology developed
for stock control sets Jim2® Business
Engine apart from ordinary accounting packages
and makes Jim2® a true Business Application for your Warehouse and
Distribution business.
As an
Import Export business or
Distributor, one of your most labour intensive tasks is not
only receiving, but pushing your pricing, descriptions, images and stock
availability out to all your customers on a regular basis. Happen
Business has developed our flagship product,
Jim2® Business Engine,
to now send and receive price
and data information from businesses just like yours... automatically.
You
can now send your pricelists electronically to your Customers through
Jim2® Business Engine – hourly,
daily, weekly or on-demand.
Not only that, Jim2® eBusiness is a
two-way street. Your customers can also order electronically with
you, straight from their Accounting Software (Jim2®). Your
customers can turn a Quote into an Order in seconds. That
means an order in your hands sooner, and money in your pocket faster.
Automating
your pricelist delivery and ordering facility for your customers has
many benefits to your distribution business:
- More sales by
making it easier for your customers to buy from you
- Reduction
in costs on customer service reps
- Making it faster
for your
customers to quote and sell your
products
- Improved
customer
service by feeding the most current prices directly into your
customers' accounting system
As a Distributor, you can spend
more time chasing new customers instead of endlessly sending out
pricelists and quoting over the phone.

- The concepts that your stock should not only include normal
inventory but also labour, tests and checks ensures the real costs of
inputs are able to be on-charged to your customers – accurately and
consistently.
- Jim2® can calculate stock quantity and pricing 'on
the fly'
using information from stock measures, stock locations, stock
transfers, returns from customers, returns to vendors, purchase order
and manufacturing job status, pre-defined selling price levels and
‘specific customer’ pricing.
- Jim2® will prompt users to create
backorders or auto backfill on part receipt/supply of Stock on Jobs and
Purchases.
- Live Stock Profit reporting by Stock, Account Manager or Sales
Person, Customer, GL Group – filtered by any combination of product
and customer grouping, sales and servicing, stock location,
supplier, kitted product by ‘kit’ or ‘content’, filtering by date range
– even filtering by margin!
- Only one Stock record is required
to identify a product. Jim2® handles multiple Vendor codes, and preferred
vendor rankings.

Inward Goods Landed Costing
- Purchases can be 'received' into stock-on-hand count and sold,
then
'finished' on receipt of ‘actual’ vendor invoice. Jim2® will calculate
an estimate COGS on receipt of stock for profit reporting, and
automatically journal the adjusted profit calculation when the purchase
cost is finalised.
- Link separate Expense Orders (duty, freight)
directly to a Purchase Order to effect ‘cost of goods’
