the fuel distribution software is a vertical market application developed to meet the complex requirements of fuel distributors. when combined with the accpac advantage series accounting software, this provides a complete solution for companies in the fuel distribution industry. =================== the core fuel distribution module includes the following components: advanced date-based pricing and discounting account set isolation and configuration parameters inventory location configuration multiple transaction types batch based transaction pre-processing complex fuelcard processing logic national account handling complex invoice statement advanced inventory uom configuration off-road tax credit reporting local body tax collection and reporting granular security email notifications other modules that are available for fuel distribution are: demand and transportation planning this module provides fleet delivery planning functionality. deliveries are recorded from multiple sources, including: standing schedules customer orders demand planning using predictive calculations based on customer tank meter reads, which signals when a delivery will be required for each customer site the suggested dispatch schedule can then be manipulated by the operator to derive the final dispatch schedule for each shift, as well as load requirements. delivery schedule and load information can then be produced, either in hard copy or transmitted to each vehicle�s on-board system. on board systems the on board module uses touchscreen technology to provide functions to the driver, including recording of delivery data, meter reads, etc. data can be transmitted real-time between the vehicle and head office, via wireless (subject to network coverage limitations). alternatively daily upload/downloads can be handled. retail despatching specifically for retail based mini-tanker operations in a reactive dispatcher environment, this allows for fast entry and recall of customer delivery details and can be modified to integrate with tapi based solutions for screen-popping application. site management also referred to as customer inventory control system (cics), this sub-module provides the ability to collect tank dips and pump readings to ascertain that no tank seepage is occurring, this also includes the ability for usage forecasting and scheduling functionality.

field asset management integrated with norming fixed assets module, this manages distributor owned equipment provisioned at customer sites. fuel company reconciliations the fuel distribution reconciliation module contains a significant sub-system and interface to record and reconcile complex transactions between distribution companies and fuel companies. driven from posting of batch transactions, loading dockets (invoices to ap vendor account) and delivery invoices (credits to ap vendor account where delivery to fuel company direct customer) and delivery freight charges (invoice to ar cartage account). in addition, transactions entered directly in accpac ledgers against vendor and customer accounts are extracted and managed in reconciliation module.

internal issues allows organisations that operate stockrooms to issue stock to user departments. =============== costs for the inventory issued are charged directly to the cost centre�s expense account uses accpac ic adjustments as the underlying transaction type. internal issues also integrates with purchasing workflow, which provides the following additional functionality: approved requisitions can create internal issues transactions (if there is sufficient quanity on hand) configurable options for creation of internal issues � either created automatically (individually) as part of the workflow, or by stores in bulk internal issues has been fully developed in the accpac sdk, so is available on all the databases/platforms that accpac advantage series is supported on. internal issues is available for all editions of accpac advantage series. it is available for aas version 5.1 and above.

purchasing workflow provides an easy-to-use requisitioning program, and a powerful, configurable workflow engine that supports many of the workflows and controls that organizations typically require. requisitioning easy to use requisition screen � many fields are auto-populated supports stocked and non-stocked items supports approved vendors model (at the item level) approval console - easy to use, single screen for all approvals/declining management console - easy to use, single screen for enquiry by managers, for all cost centres that they have access to configurable options for creation of purchase orders from requisitions � either created by purchasing in bulk or automatically (individually) as part of the workflow highly configurable security options

ability to integrate into the internal issues module workflow engine configurable rules, routings and authority levels supports multiple authorisations on a single transaction supports gl budget checking e-mail notification functionality is included (smtp e-mail, so supports exchange, groupwise, lotus notes) event log - an event log of all events within purchasing workflow is retained escalation - overdue action reporting is available, as well as programs to automatically escalate all overdue transactions. purchasing workflow has been fully developed in the accpac sdk, so is available on all the databases/platforms that accpac advantage series is supported on. purchasing workflow is available for all editions of accpac advantage series. it is available for aas version 5.1 and above. the purchase orders module is required. -------------------------sage sdk documentation -----------------------accpac advantage series superior design allows for custom modules and extensions to accpac core modules and interfaces to provide a totally integrated customer solution. this approach has advantages over the common approach of developing satellite databases that contain additional information outside the accpac environment, some of the many advantages include:removing data synchronisation procedure requirements in satellite systems, this can easily be grossly under-estimated ability to define extended add, change and delete logic to maintain integrity synchronised backup and restore procedures able to extend accpac core reports easily and report from single database able to take advantage of accpac infrastructure enhancements removing the overhead of managing such satellite systems extensions of accpac advantage series core views mean that additional data and functional requirements are fully exposed to the advanced accpac advantage series rich infrastructure features such as macros, import/export and reporting. pts has a substantial amount of experience in developing software using the accpac advantage series sdk, both from our own products and existing commissioned projects on behalf of clients and solution providers. pts possess the skills and knowledge to develop the most comprehensive solutions for customers if you require extra functionality to be provided to the accpac advantage series software, please feel free to contact us to discuss the requirement.
