The system covers all processes and activities in a single software solution, providing real-time informationany time on the execution of the contracts for purchase and contracts for sale (export) of grain.

All information is available with strictly defined access rights and extremely high levels of protection and security. Access via tablet and smart phone is an additional advantage and gives flexibility to owners, managers and other employees who are often out of office.
Purchasing management:
Grain purchase contracts are at the beginning of the chain. All their characteristics such as term, price, conditions, quality indicators, etc. are defined in N.E.X.T . After entering the conditions, the contract is automatically generated in MS Word or other document file according to the client’s template pre-set in N.E.X.T. The system automatically monitors the execution of each contract by transportations, using “traffic light” colors where red contracts are executed below 90%, yellow are the executed over 90%, and green are the contracts completed on 100%. The reception of grain in the grain storage base is done with a high degree of automation, as most of the fields in the weighing receipt notes are filled in automatically. Gross, Tare and net are filled in thanks to integration (software connection) with the scale, the quality indicators are entered or “retreived” automatically thanks to a connection to the laboratory analysing devices, and then the system automatically calculates the test weight. Car registration number and truck can also be filled in automatically in case of integration with video monitoring sursystem supporting OCR (Opticaal characters reconition).
