Features and Benefits

WZWeigh - Features & Benefits
Technology

The platform of our technology has enabled us to create applications that emulate the touch-first experience that lies at the heart of Microsoft Windows 10. Although beautiful and feature-rich, our weighbridge software is primarily built for speed and performance regardless of data complexity or size.

User controls are powered by a server-side data processing engine ensuring users can shape and analyse information at lightning speeds without sacrificing features or capabilities.

Our commitment to performance, redundancy, and technological innovation ensures confidence and trust in our weighbridge solutions and software. Data-centric, enterprise-grade business software that will amaze.

The engine design of WZWeigh is that of Multi-master replication. Multi-master replication is a method of database replication which allows data to be stored by a group of computers and updated by any member of the group. All members are responsive to client data queries. The multi-master replication system is responsible for propagating data modifications made by each member to the rest of the group and resolving any conflicts that might arise between concurrent changes made by different members.

WZWeigh - Scale Management
Scale Management

Scale Management Software if you weren’t aware is a commonly used description to encompass all the vital components of a weighbridge, truck scale or loader scales, software. Weighbridge software can be described as software that provides a weights and measure output being vehicle entry and exit weigh with nothing more, which is also common of the physical loader scale.

In today’s world successful companies need much more than just weights and measures, although a vital component, they need management, visibility and flow of information about vehicles, transport providers, customers, materials production and forecasting, pick-up location and delivery destination detail.

Introducing WZWeigh’s Scale Management Software

Responsible for critical data, key to your business success. Employing a Multi-Master database that delivers enterprise-level availability, scalability and security with redundancy and business critical operations, uptime.

Customer Management

With detailed records from contact information through to transactional history you can expect ease of access with complete visibility. Flexible Grid Reporting with comprehensive filtering, grouping, merged and custom grouping of transactions, jobs, price books and invoices.

All-inclusive reporting outputs of PDF, Excel and Email. Four month snapshot totals of customer materials cost and price with instant drill-down into the detail. Coupled with Analytics empowers you to drag and drop, slicing data to your will with graphical outcomes of top performers and business intelligence.

Job Management

Unsurpassed job analysis built on our Grid Reporting Engine delivers materials and transport cost and price. Complimented with job estimates or forecasting offers tonnes and percentage complete to date, reporting.

With great job management comes Advanced Pricing, which includes status management of Open, Closed, Expired or Forecast. Take advantage of our inherent Grid filtering and grouping functionality offering views of what price books are assigned to what jobs or optionally set a Default price book per customer, ensuring the system automatically allocates the correct pricing on job creation.

With larger operations it doesn’t take long to reach 1000 price books totalling in excess of 10,000 material lines. Add to this 10,000 jobs, some being Contract in nature, this is big data made easy under WZWeigh. Price it once and price it right, the first time.

Materials Management

Demand defines production where we offer two instruments with which to calculate it. Using the Pre-Entry toolset offering planning and scheduling at a per-load, vehicle level, or Job Estimate, materials forecast level. Both toolsets allow the grouping, filtering, sorting and graphing by product firstly, with dimensions of customer, job, expected date, average price, cost and more, available.

Loader operators, (with WZLoad, Dumpers and more) capture production quantities in real-time as they transport materials from the crushers to the pits; as easily as they load vehicles. Built on the Grid Reporting Engine, materials Stock-On-Hand quantities by profit centre and location are instantly available for monitoring as are sales and production counts, tonnes, average price and cost, per hour, day, week, and month, metrics.

WZWeigh’s materials management facilities are highly functional, designed to encompass the full scope of your business operations;

  • Materials Cost and Price Management by Location.
  • Materials cost recognition at the time of production, the time of sale or in combination.
  • Net Weight, back calculation to Fixed Price.
  • Supply and Deliver, consolidated or separated invoice detail.
  • Four month snap-shot totals with drill-down.
  • Stock-On-Hand positive and negative adjustments control and visibility.
  • Custom Groups offering user-defined materials grouping of i.e. construction, concrete, gravel, soil, waste etc.
  • Intercompany transactions capability and facility.
Vehicle and Transport Management

WZWeigh’s vehicle management starts with the Vehicle Configuration, being that of Truck Only, Trailer Only, Truck and Trailer, Semi-Trailer-Truck and more. Storing Tare, Target and Maximum Gross weights per configuration. This essential data offers WZWeigh a unique ability to pre-calculate the to-be-loaded net weight, in addition to providing notification on overloading.

Where sites are restricted to maximum movement or volume restrictions WZWeigh’s Resourcing Reporting ensures Resource Consent compliance delivering an automated and unique opportunity to differentiate between vehicle counts (or docket counts) versus Movement Counts within the hour, day, week, weekend and month.

From compliance, features extend to include transport management with logistics planning and scheduling. Planning defines materials demand which drives production ensuring fast vehicle throughput and resource availability. Transport is the accompanying service to materials delivery hence WZWeigh will manage the internal fleet and/or all subcontractor transport price and costs, including the estimated time of pickup to delivery, through to Accounts Payable reporting.

Security and Auditing
Business Security is important and when coupled with Auditing ensures you have the evidence behind mistakes and/or omissions.

Three levels of security exist. Basic users access local information only, while Administrators view transaction data at a global level meaning across multiple profit centres with the Super users determining Basic and Administrator functional access:

  • Cost & Price: Modify Materials Location Data
  • Cost & Price: Modify Job Price Book Data
  • Reports: Materials Summary Multi-Location Access
  • Accounts: AR Invoice Access
  • Scheduler: Planning & Scheduling Management and more.

Auditing is monitored through a compare grid, where the ‘was’ versus ‘current’ of any transaction is compared. Facilitating ease of tracking and investigation for Senior Management.

Status Management of Update, Complete, Delete and Edit offers instant visibility of User actions at a per transaction level with price book changes, at a per product level, eliminating an otherwise open opportunity for theft.

Security and compliance with audit tracking functionality are two WZWeigh distinct advantages over the standard weighbridge software applications.

“Now the loader knows the customer name, the time they entered the quarry, the tare weight of their truck, the product they want and how much of it. And once it’s loaded, the info is exported and synchronized into our accounting system Xero, ready for invoicing.”

Phil Gordan
Longburn Shingle Co. Ltd.

“I can complete a tablet docket in a nano-second when compared to the manual dockets where I had to write the customer code, product code, net weight…. Way better and quite enjoyable. This, from a non technical person, I’ll remind you. Once you have selected the vehicle and if they’re on-run, its’ just so easy.”

Peter Mcmillan
Tirohia Loader Driver, H.G. Leach & Co.

Damien Provis
Business Analyst , Frews Contracting

“Longburn needed weighbridge software that could satisfy these 3 criteria:

  1. Execute an unmanned weighbridge with clear and concise instruction between truck drivers, even non-account customers and the loader(s).
  2. Create efficiency by reducing load times, work smarter not harder, and enable access to key operational data, easily, from anywhere.
  3. Integrate our Quarry Management Software of choice with our existing accounting application, Xero.”
