Have you ever thought of possessing an accounting package specially developed for your industry?

If so, please browse through the briefing on how our software can benefit your company in 2 aspects:

  - Worry-proof for log-related calculation & transaction;     Processing
  - Gain advantage on competitors in terms of Timber     Management & Marketing Competitiveness.
Generally, log can be divided into 2 types:

  - Mid-Log
  - End-Log

Each log has different length, circumference, tonnage, species & price.

Most important, when log is sawn into board/plank, its calculation of price will vary upon elements as Cross Section, Size, length, Species, Quantity, Unit Price etc.

As regards Selling Mode, log can be sold in Weight (Tonnage), Bundle/Piece of Timber, Foot-Run & even Roof-Run.
Judging from the above log-related calculation, it seems that you have to spend a lot of working hours in order to prepare invoicing and other work for various selling modes.

Moreover, you have to consider the following circumstances :

  - Certain types of timber has to undergo planning/drying     process;
  - You have to include unloading charges of lorry     workers;
  - You have to calculate log’s inventory, species,     specification, price etc. per month;
