The feature of remote user integration is implemented in e-Reckoner through various kiosks for different types of users. The user just needs to log on to the site using Internet Explorer 5.0 or above and access the information he is authorised to view. This is mainly important for users who need to access limited functionality of Reckoner and have limited bandwidth available. For using kiosks no application or database is installed on the user machines. The kiosks have been designed in order to allow access to only the information that is relevant to a particular user.

What we are listing out below is only part of the functionlity available in each kiosk. The various kiosks in eReckoner are:

Customer kiosk  -  demo

This is for the customers to raise Inquiries, view quotations placed by the company in response to the enquiry and place orders online directly with the Head Office. Also, the customer can view the despatch status of the goods and the invoice that is raised by the company, online. Accordingly, he can make the payment and also view his account ledger.

Supplier Kiosk  -  demo

The Supplier can view the Request for Quotations placed by the Company online and place Quotations for them and receive orders against these quotations. After dispatching the materials, they can enter the invoice online. The supplier will also know when the goods are received by the organisation and their acceptance.

Branch Kiosk  -  demo

The Branch can enter the orders it receives from the customers, online. The branch will know at every stage the progress of the order. Once the organisation authorises the order, the branch will know the status of despatch and invoice. A branch can check up the outstanding and available credit limit of customer even across multiple units. The branch can also do the collection receiving and the receivable adjustments for the customer online. The collection processing will list out all outstanding vouchers for that particular customer allowing the branch to do a partial or complete adjustment against one or multiple vouchers.

Plant Kiosk  -  demo

In a scenario, where the Factory, Stores and the Dispatch department are situated in one location, this location can be termed as a Plant. The Plant can log on to the Plant Kiosk and view the Dispatch Advices generated by the Marketing Office. Accordingly, the Material Issue will be generated automatically once the stores authorises the despatch. Despatch authorisation will generate the invoice which will in turn generate the Sales voucher for accounts. However, in a case where the store and the dispatch department are situated far away, the Plant Kiosk will only view the Dispatch Advice and generate the invoice and the Financial Voucher. The Stores Kiosk in this case will do the Material Issue. In the first scenario, the Stores Kiosk becomes redundant.

Stores Kiosk  -  demo

The Stores Kiosk as described above views the Dispatch Advices and generates the Material Issue. It will also issue the GRIN from material issue and Gate Entry when the goods come in from manufacturing.

Depot Kiosk

The Depot Kiosk encompasses both the Branch Kiosk as well as the Plant Kiosk functionalities. This is basically meant for a set up in which the interaction with the customers i.e. receiving orders and collection processing etc. as well as the material issue, dispatch, invoice and voucher generation is done at a single location.

Employee Kiosk

The Employee Kiosk is meant for the maintenance of the employee accounts. The Employee can log on to the Employee Kiosk to enter his leave, apply for loans, apply for reimbursement etc. Apart from this, he can view his salary calculation and other details.

Retail Kiosk

Retail Kiosk is meant for managing a retail outlet. A retail outlet of any restaurant chain, for example, can enter its daily sales and the usage of materials etc. and even the attendance/ sales done by their employees. It also manages goods receipt from suppliers, inventory and expenses incurred directly by the retail outlet. These details will be visible to the Main Office from the Reckoner application installed at their end. This is to manage the daily records of any Retail outlet with the Head Office. At the end of the shift Reckoner will generate a consolidated sales invoice for daily sales and generate a material issue to update the current stock at the store.
