Thank you for your interest in OM 4.0.  The software specializes in the order handling side of your business.  From the time the order is received, it is tracked by the system through production, shipping, until finally payment is posted in the Accounts Receivable module.  Easy to use data screens guide you through the information entry process.  Reports keep you informed of inventory needed for shipments, orders shipped, and receivables due.  In seconds, you can see your best selling items and customers. Need to do a pre-show mailing?  Easy, and even sort it by zip code.  You can even target only those names that you want. 

 

If you are currently using another accounting type software program, chances are that we can convert your data to our format.  This can save you a lot of data entry time, and make transition to a new software system easy.

 

The software has been developed over the past twelve years, with emphasis on the giftware industry.  We work closely with companies who need a level of service not available with off-the-shelf software packages.  Our clients range from single-user sole-proprietorships to multi-location corporations.  Whether you are a manufacturer, importer, distributor, or wholesaler, OM 4.0 can handle your customers, inventory, orders, and receivables.

 

The following pages will give you a brief overview of the system.  Run the CD installation program, and use the program for thirty days.  Call me if you have questions.

Software Developer

About OM 4.0

OM 4.0 is the newest version of the software program originally known as Office Mate.  Wayne Stahnke, the original developer, created the software to manage the orders and production of his own small manufacturing business.  He found that most of the existing software was accounting based, great for creating invoices once the order was shipped, but failed when it came to handling orders to be shipped in the future and the inventory needed to produce the orders.  OM 4.0 is one of the few programs with actual business experience written into the program.  Today, over twelve years later, the program is Windowsâ based, year 2000 compliant, network ready, and feature packed.

 

What can OM 4.0 do for you

 

OM 4.0 is tool designed to assist you in running your business more efficiently.  Whether in the office, warehouse, or production area, you will find OM 4.0 has functions, which will save you time and money.  No longer will you have to add up the pending orders in the file drawer.  Let OM 4.0 do it, day after day, at the touch of a button.  Let OM 4.0 print the invoices.  Let OM 4.0 generate a list of who owes you money, and if they are past due or not.  Know in seconds a customers’ complete purchasing and accounting history.  Let OM 4.0 print labels for your pre-show mailings, even sorted by zip code.  Let OM 4.0 create production and pick lists for the shipping room, including location and special instructions.  OM 4.0 can do this and more.  Control is at your fingertips.

 

User Interface Features

 

The user interface is designed to be easy to use and intuitive.  Menu selections and dialog screens guide you through processes until you have the information you want.  Once the data is ready, you can see it in data format on the screen, preview it in graphical format, or send it right to the printer.  On screen help is available by clicking on the ‘?’ button.  The Policy feature allows you to create your own on-line company manual.   Just enter the information that your employees need to know when they have questions about how you want them to do things.  The Customer Profile screen displays pertinent information about a selected customer.  The screen includes accounting, sales, address information, notes, and a scrolling list of their orders.  You can click on an order and bring it up on the screen, enter a new order, post a payment, and even find out which product is purchased most often.

 

Support, Updates, and Customizations
