Tight Control of Inventory
Inventory is the life blood of your business. If you lose track of a few boxes here and a few boxes there, pretty soon it adds up to real money. The produce industry faces challenges that other industries don't. For instance, paper products are very uniform and predictable, peppers and tomatoes are not. TrueShot uses a lot based inventory system that is both easy to use and provides you with the information need to make decisions and report to growers.
Keep Track of Supplies
Many packing and warehouse operations use thousands of dollars worth of supplies, yet many times no record is kept of their use. Many times, supplies are stolen and management never knows. TrueShot provides a simple and elegant way of tracking supplies as they are used. In this way, periodic counts of warehouse or packing supplies can tell you, sooner rather than later, that supplies are missing.
Prompt Reporting to Growers
Grower's want to know many things. Am I getting the market rate for my product? Am I picking at the right time? Am I having quality problems? These questions must all be answered quickly for them to be of any benefit to the grower. TrueShot is specifically designed to allow information to be quickly organized and specialized for individual growers. Many times, the earliest information is preliminary in nature. As time goes by, that information changes as price adjustments and troubles are reported. TrueShot allows you to give preliminary reports and then, as details become firm, to "settle" with the grower, that is make a statement that all details are final.
Salesman Access to Production Information
Mornings are a crazy time around the sales office. The more quickly they can come up with production information the more quickly they can communicate that to their customers. TrueShot not only provides numerous inventory report formats, but it also gives production staff the ability to create projects and have that information immediately communicated to the sales staff. This information can quickly become a "quote" that can be faxed to customers. The idea is to quote more people with less effort and then be able to perform.

HELPING YOU AVOID PROBLEMS
Grower-Shippers, as the name implies, are grower's that participate in the marketing of their products. Product is harvested and usually taken to a warehouse or packing facility run by the grower-shipper. Lot based inventory control is critical to partner accounting and good management of this kind of operation. If a packing operation is undertaken, inventory can have multiple stages.
"Forgetting" Trouble Processing
Trouble is like a game of musical chairs: you don't want to be left standing when the music stops. Since you don't actually ever touch produce, it is really hard for anything to be your fault. When the customer reports trouble, your job is to pass it along to the responsible party. That usually means the freight company or the supplier. You have the best chance of succeeding at this if you can more or less instantly point the finger elsewhere. TrueShot has a formal trouble reporting system that document who said what and when. It also keeps track of the status. Just knowing the facts about trouble is your best weapon against getting stuck in the middle.
Sloppy Record Keeping
Sloppy record keeping can devastate a grower-shipper operation. Even if you make mistakes a very small percentage of the time, they can cost you many thousands of dollars. Keeping track of a lot based inventory system by hand is very difficult. If you combine the tracking of financial information with the inventory information, it is next to impossible to do accurately. The relationships are so complex that humans inevitably make mistakes. TrueShot is designed specifically to for this kind of situation. It understands all the relationships. Your job is simply to tell it transaction by transaction what has happened. When you make a mistake, you simply go to what is wrong, change it to what is right, and the computer handles all the details of adjusting. If those details are very complex, TrueShot will handle them correctly.
Slow Paying Your Accounts
This is a management issue that has many parts. TrueShot gives you the management tools to help you minimize this effect. Getting your invoices out correctly as quickly as possible is one way of collecting money faster. When you collect faster, you can pay faster. Another factor is paying intelligently. TrueShot gives you the reports you need to help you predict cash crunches. When there is too much of a crunch, TrueShot helps you provide appropriate information to lendors to help you borrow the money. Bankers want to know that you are completely on top of your business and that you know all the answers. TrueShot supports that effort.
Always Remember to Invoice
Has anyone ever called you and said "we never received an invoice for that load?". Have you ever wondered how many people don't call? With TrueShot, this is next to impossible. It may be that the postal service lost an invoice, but your computer system will keep reminding you that is has not been paid. Other mistakes can be adjustments that got added incorrectly. TrueShot makes adjustments as easy as they can possibly be. You always go to what is wrong, change it to what is right and the computer makes all the adjustments automatically. This greatly reduces errors.
