K.I.S.S - Keep It Simple Software

Crop Costing is part of the complete GREUX Agri-1st business accounting applications. It interacts with Accounts Payable, Payroll, and General Ledger. Major features include:

• Distribution of expenses (amount and quantity) may be performed while entering hours/piecework in Payroll, while entering invoices in Accounts Payable, while entering G/L journal entries, or directly into Crop Cost.

• All stages of a crop such as plowing, cultivating, planting, pruning, fertilizing and harvesting may be broken down into user defined cost codes consisting of 5 characters (alpha or numeric) with the last character treated as a category. The last character allows further breaking down of each stage into categories such labor hours, piece work, fuel and materials.

• The Crop Cost report shows expenses by cost code, category and phase, and calculates expenses as a percent of estimate. Income may be listed and compared to expenses to date or to estimates. Expenses, income, and profit by the acre (or unit of measure) are also shown.

• The Crop Cost report may be run selecting a specific product and/or variety, or on specific characters of the Crop number.

• Up to thirty six user defined totals by category may be printed on a separate report, for each crop and for all crops.

• Estimate quantities and amounts may be entered for each cost code of a Crop.

• Estimates may copied from any crop into a new crop or the accrued costs of a crop may be copied into a new crop as estimates for the new crop. Quantity factors (multipliers) may be used for the copies.

• Cost detail may be summarized periodically to conserve space.

• Costs that apply to multiple Crops and Cost Codes may be distributed proportionately through use of an optional allocation table. Multiple Crops and Cost Codes with allocation percentages for a single G/L account number may be set up for this table.
