Kylie Murr…Business Equipment Maintenance, Mt. Isa, QLD

"Not only did Jim2 improve our procedures and save us costs in wages – but our business increased its revenue by 68%as a direct result of implementing Jim2"


Why Jim2 Photocopier Edition?

In consultation with the Australian Photocopier Industry, Happen Business has developed Jim2 Business Engine Photocopier Edition, an Accounting and ERP Business Solution designed specifically for the Australian Photocopier Industry.

We found after talking to many people in the Photocopier / IT / Office Equipment Industry as well as our existing Jim2 clients who have a Photocopier Business, that they needed software that could keep pace with the changing face of the copier business and also to automate a lot of the processes that are associated with running a profitable copier sales and maintenance business.

We also found that businesses NOT using Jim2 were finding the accounts and administration side of running a copier business difficult…to say the least. Many of their existing systems, such as accounting software, service management and meter request applications were just not performing as promised. Happen Business developed Jim2 as a powerful all-in-one multi-user Enterprise Resource Planning solution.


Julian Dickeson, Owner…Grangeburn Office & IT, Vic

“With Jim2, invoicing is so much faster and easier. Jim2 allows us to do more work with less administration. Jim2 helps us set business processes and automate pricing, it completely takes the headache out of managing hundreds of machines under contract.”


One Piece of Software That Manages Your Entire Business

Jim2 Business Engine manages every aspect of your business workflow cycle – from stock control, sales, services and customer contact. Its strengths also include invoicing, rock solid financials and reporting.

In addition to all the existing features of Jim2, our Jim2 Photocopier Edition focuses on the parts of YOUR business that matter the most:

  • Professional Copier-specific Reports
  • PREMIUM Aggregate Billing (Consolidated Billing)
  • Page Count Billing including Automatic Requests for Meter Reads
  • Automatic Calculation of Billing (including Minimum Charges)
  • Parts Stock Control
  • Machine Profit
  • Service Management
  • Multi-party billing (i.e. Manufacturer & Customer)
