  • Promotions can be managed, both in sales and purchases, from date to date, in absolute value, hectolitres and/or per cent.
  • Free products can be managed either by customer, supplier or rate, entirely by your choosing.
  • When selecting a customer, the standard information (rate, delivery date, type of document etc.) are displayed on their standard order.
  • Check customer's outstanding balance when opening an order.
  • Check orders that are already open and not yet delivered (so that it is possible to add goods to an order instead of creating a new one).

  • Comment lines can be added or use can be made of a range of preprogrammed texts.
  • Automatic proposal for delivery date based on standard order, taking account of leave days.

  • Sales representatives have the option of inputting goods pledged to the client free of charge.  These will then appear automatically on the next order.
  • Possibility to check obligations.  When saving an order, a list of items is displayed which will not be purchased despite the fact that a purchase obligation has been agreed for them.  A history of these items for the last 5 weeks is also displayed.
  • Manage branches at other locations using the internet connection to the central computer.
Purchasing

Punch will not only check your inventory, it will also automatically suggest orders per supplier.

  • An unlimited number of basic rates per product.

  • Items can be sorted into item categories.  These can then be selected in all lists and statistics.

Inventory management

It is easy to take stock of your inventory by using a tablet or smartphone with a barcode scanner.

CRM (tablet, smartphone)

Using a tablet, your account managers can input orders and a daily report directly when with the customer.

They also have all information available on their tablet (open items, sales statistics, customer data, standard order, range of items with prices and discounts, and more).

Electronic price tags

elektronische prijslabels

In addition to classic price labels on paper, Punch HD can be linked to an ESL system. When a price is adjusted in Punch HD, the prices in all shops are automatically adjusted. Each price label contains a small screen which is wirelessly connected to Punch HD.

Integrated accounting module

Completely integrated accounting module with all legal requirements.

Excise module (EAD, EMCS)

If your business requires this, separate duties can be linked to each item rate. As a result, discounts to customers are only calculated based on the price excluding duties and taxes.

A complete excise module for excise declaration and EMCS (EAD) is available. The ecotax or packaging levy is automatically calculated by the software.

E-Commerce


We either link your current website, or you can purchase our standard web module which is directly coupled to Punch HD. Item prices and discounts are retrieved from Punch and are automatically and correctly displayed on the website.
Orders are automatically put into a sales order.

In this way, routine tasks such as inputting orders are processed as quickly as possible, and you do not have to spend any time keeping your website up-to-date.

Business Intelligence

Both in terms of your sales and purchases, you can see everything, globalise everything, compare everything. You can do this by product, by product group, supplier or representative. You can create tables in order to follow the evolution per month, in volume, in number, in value or even in profit.

Keep track of your customers and discover which customers purchase less and of which products.
Transferring details from Punch to Excel or Word is also not a problem.

Electronic invoicing and archive
  • Every sales invoice, reminder and dispatch note can be sent to your customers via e-mail.
  • Instead of printing the mandatory copy of your invoice and archiving it, if using our software it can also be stored electronically on your server.

Orders from customers arrive digitally, packing slips and invoices are sent digitally.

Punch HD allows for complete EDI integration with your customers or suppliers (DESADV, RECADV, INVOICE, APPAREC).

Production & batch tracking

Our basic production module starts with the recipe and is able to follow all the steps of your production process (and can optionally be developed tailored to your needs).

Here, we also take into account the lot numbers of all raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products.

Full tracking is always possible. Using the lot number of the raw material, we trace it all the way to the end customer and vice versa.

Order picking using scanners (WMS)

Using scanners, order picking in your warehouse can be completely automated.
All purchases and sales are scanned in, possibly including the lot number and use by date.

Process empties via tablet

Customers use this tablet to sign for receipt of delivery and are sent an email with a calculated dispatch note or invoice attached (a paper document is still an option).
The lorry also has a live GPS-tracking module which is linked to this module.

Link to reverse vending machine for empties

Option of using a reverse vending machine or separate empties ticket. This ticket can be read by the checkout.
