New Product TIMBERplus One – Veneer Retail

One - Veneer Retail logo

This is an App that has been requested by yourselves for the sale of veneer to your retail customers. It allows your sales staff to sell veneer to your onsite customers while the warehouse staff can pack veneer for your commercial customers.

The One – Veneer Retail App is for the direct sale of veneer from the warehouse. This is a multiplatform App. It works with our iPod Touch Handheld device which come with a Bluetooth scanner as well as a protective rubber case to make it more robust for use in the warehouse. You can also use it on your Apple Phone. However, we would suggest to purchase a Bluetooth scanning device to go with this. The Apple Camera is not as quick/good at decoding veneer barcodes.

The App requires a WIFI/VPN connection in order for it to work as it talks directly to your desktop version. It works by selecting the customer from a list the selecting the appropriate order number (if one has previously been created) or create a new order.

The App has two different packing modes, ‘log’ where you can pack all bundles from the log in one go or ‘bundle’ mode where you can scan a bundle to bring up the log details and then scan the bundles you’re selling to the customer.

The App automatically creates order position lines based on species and sales price. So you can spend more time with your customers rather than on admin tasks! You can even print sales documents straight from the App (if you have a Bluetooth enabled LaserJet printer). Moreover, you can also switch to the desktop version to do this.

FAQ’s

‘What happens if I input the incorrect position price?’ Not to worry this can be easily fix, go to the incorrect position, tap on the log and edit the price, once saved the App will automatically move this to the correct position line or if there is not one available will create a new position line.

‘Quite often I need to measure back veneer for retail customers, do I have to change to the desktop version for this?’ No there is an option in the App to measure back sheets, width and lengths, simply scan the log to pack it to a position line and then tap on the log to bring up a new screen. There you can measure back veneer.
