 What
databases can I use? What type of communication do I need?
Can RediLink manage manual loads?
This page answers these questions
and many others.
Can I combine online
plants with semi online plants?
Yes, one head office system can support both plants that are
continuously in communication and others that connect only
periodically. A saving in communication
cost.
What happens with
semi online plants when the communication line is down?
The plant system will continue with full functionality, but without
receiving and sending updates to/from the head office.
All updates are done automatically when the link is running
again. Unlike other systems that halt when
communication ceases, RediLink keeps on running.
What databases can I
use?
Any database with SQL/ODBC interface can be used; we
guarantee the system with either ORACLE, MySQL or MS-SQL,
the industry's most reliable databases.
If I have an
accounting system running on a different database. Is it
possible to have reports that combine data from the RediLink and the
accounting system?
Yes, the RediLink report generator can access any SQL/ODBC database.
What type of
communication do I need?
Standard TCP/IP links with FTP server in the head office.
Most accounting systems
generate text (ASCII type) files. Can RediLink access them?
Yes, RediLink can import any type of ASCII file,
guaranteeing compatibility.
Can the actual batch
operation of a specific plant be remotely monitored from the head
office?
Because the driver between the RediLink batching system and the
BatchTron interface is based on TCP/IP protocol, our remote monitor
software can monitor any batching units from the head office,
giving you full supervision at any time.
Can RediLink manage
manual loads?
Yes; when changing the system to manual operation the batcher can
enter the actual quantities in the edit boxes on the batching form.
Is it possible to
change the price in a customer’s contract at the end of the month
and have the change take effect from the middle of the month?
Yes, when creating a new version of the prices in the contract, you
enter the date when you want the new price to take effect,
giving you full flexibility in pricing.
Can I have several
contracts for the same customer?
Yes, you may have as many as you like, but you can have only one
contract per site (project).
Can I set different
payment terms for different products without the need of a new
contract?
Yes, the payment terms may be defined for each product and plant.
How is the selling
price calculated; by mix design or by actual ingredient values?.
The
selling price is calculated by the customer’s contract based
on the price list in the contract.
The selling price has nothing to do with the ingredients in
the formula; the ingredients can be optimized with the mix design
module. If the concrete plant can
produce concrete at lower cost, it increases profit.
I have invoiced a
customer for several tickets, then I manually entered some more
tickets in the same period. Can the invoicing program be run
twice on the same period?
Yes it can; invoiced tickets will not be included in the second
invoicing process.
I have invoiced a
customer and now I have changed the prices in the contract; can I
recalculate the prices?
No. After the ticket is
invoiced, the system will not change the price but you can cancel
the invoice, recalculate and then make a new invoice for the same
period. There is a way around even the
most difficult scenarios.
I have several
customers who want to have a different invoice print format; can I
do this?
Yes, each customer can have a different invoice print format that is
user defined - no need to ask us for expensive
custom formats.
Can I create an invoice
on one page and an appendix with a list of all the tickets related
to this invoice?
Yes, you can have up to three different lists in one invoice print
format.
I have a customer
with two daughter companies, both of which are my customers.
They want the tickets to be issued to the daughter companies,
billing to go to the mother company, Is it possible?
Yes, just enter the mother company code into the “Main Customer
Code” field in the daughter company
data. RediLink
For the same project,
can I have one distance for charging my customer and a different
distance for paying my hauler?
Yes, on the site (project) data you can define different distances
for the hauler and for the customer.
RediLink
allows you to take advantage of every little detail.
Can I build customized reports without your assistance?
With the query generator, the end user can immediately
build any report needed for decision making. Any query can be
transferred to a Microsoft Excel form for graphic presentation, or
can be evaluated with the built in pivot table facility.
Pivot Tables
or Decision Cubes are a method of summarizing the data
display in different ways, in order to present the data in such a
way as to bring out important trends.
You are not limited in the way you view your data.
