Fertilizer Module

Our Fertilizer Module is where all fertilizing activities are captured. Here users can setup products to be used by hand or spreader, and through the irrigation system (Fertigation). Stock can be monitored on a daily basis and Fertilizer Instructions can be created and printed. These instructions also adhere to GLOBALG.A.P. Standards. Detailed Fertilizer Record reports can provide current and historical data, per block, to the user, auditors and exporters.

Costing Module

Within the Costing Module, a detailed costing analysis can be done for each block on your farm. All costs, derived from spray & fertilizer instructions captured in the individual modules, are automatically included in the costing module’s costing structures. Our Payroll system also integrates with the costing module, allowing the user to allocate each employees hours and costs to a block and/or cost centre. Contractors’ costs and other General costs can also be captured and allocated. This allows for detailed and comprehensive costing reporting to be done over the entire farming operation.

Income Module

The Income Module is used to calculate the income of each block/cultivar on your farm. Local Sales, Export Sales and Direct Sales can also be captured in this module. This module allows for the tracking of your fruit, from the orchard, through to intake at the packhouse, and eventually the pack outs or dispatches from the packhouse. The software caters for different packaging types, as well as the packing material that is needed for each packaging type. Invoices and Payments can be generated from the system, with the company’s logo, and can be sent to your clients. Detailed Costing information from the Costing Module can be pulled through to this module, which then enables the user to generate a Cost & Income (Profitability) report per Block, Variety etc. This is a key report in making dynamic business decisions with regards to your farming operation.

Other Farm Management Modules

We have a few other smaller modules that are also included in our Farm Management Software:

Asset Module – With this module you can capture your farm’s diesel/petrol usage and generate various reports. You can also keep record of vehicle’s services etc.

Pest Monitoring Module – This module allows you to create instructions for a scout to search or look for pests within the orchard, and to then capture the results. The results of leaf, soil and fruit analysis can also be captured in this module.

IPW module – Wine farmers can use this module to evaluate the farm and farming practices, and print reports for IPW certification. Herbicide/Pests and Diseases reports are also generated from here.

Diary Module – A small diary function where users can make notes in general or per block.

Easy payment processing

Our user-friendly screens and input methods, enable users to capture mass data faster. Various Importing and exporting functions are also available on Payment information. The system automatically calculates and caters for UIF and PAYE, and additional automatic calculations can be setup as well. Each client’s Pay Screen is fully customized – you determine your own input fields, formulas and reports.

Meeting your tax needs

Various Tax scenarios is catered for, like Medical Aid, Travel Allowances, Retirement Funds etc. All the relevant SARS Codes are available to be linked to your different Income Types and deductions, in order to correctly report this on your annual tax certificates for your EMP501 submissions. We keep up with the latest legislative and reporting changes, as distributed by SARS, in order to seamlessly integrate with SARS’s e@syFile software, via an electronic CSV file. The Employment Tax Incentive (ETI) initiative is still in place until February 2029, and our software does all the necessary calculations to identify which employees qualify for this incentive, and generates the required reports and information for SARS. Our system also generates electronic UIF Declaration files, which can be sent to the Department of Labour on a monthly basis. This conforms to the latest specifications, and ensures that your information is always up to date. You can also print UI-19 reports directly from the program, so there is no need to complete any manual forms anymore.

Piecework

Our Piecework module is fully integrated with our Payroll and Time Systems modules. If manual inputs are preferred, we have quick and easy input methods. The Piecework module caters for multiple payment options. You have the option to pay at a fixed rate per unit, which means that you specify a “Rate per Unit”, which then gets multiplied with the units to get to a payment value. Alternatively, there are sliding scale and a predetermined amount calculations available. The user then specifies the total amount available for the Piecework payment, and the software uses calculations to determine the value of each employee’s payment. Speed, quality etc. can be included in these calculations. In order to adhere to minimum wage requirements, the system can optionally also calculate the piecework minimum wage, in order to ensure that employees do not get paid less than the minimum wage. Various reports are also available on the piecework information. Reports on historical piecework data are also available at the click of a button in our Payroll Management Software.
