Comprehensive Software for Import & Export Businesses

Importing and Exporting software is a specialised field. Usually most small businesses start of with a small accounting program, a mix of excel sheets, and possibly at best a third party importing software to control inventory and supply chain costs. Always there is a LOT of paperwork, man hours in trying to keep control, and inaccuracies.

TIMMS combines everything into one software so you have full control.

The importing software by TIMMS provides the facilities to control the importing and shipping process from the time of placement of a purchase order to the time that all stock has been received and either sold or transferred into warehouse stock.

The import module is used for full identification, tracking and costing of imports. It provides identification at all levels from the name of the vessel, voyage, bills of lading, down to individual marks and packs.

Importers / Wholesalers and Distributors trust Distributor Software such as TIMMS to control the entire chain.

The module allows you to create and maintain information relating to vessel allocation, shipment details, mark detail, allocations to sales, transfers to stocks, and shipment costing details.

Importing and shipping information is available via the enquiry facilities in the TIMMS order entry and inventory management modules.
