Software suits masonry distribution

Information technology developer offers retail, distribution and accounting modules as
"front counter-to-back office" Universal Mason Supply Software. Newest to the platform is
the UAS Brick & Block Production module, unveiled at 2010 Icon Expo. Following creation of
Mix Design Types and Block Setups, users can enter production orders, track and report on
materials consumed, cubing, culls, mix yield, production labor, and overhead.
Brick & Block joins established modules. A Point-of-Sale entry screen provides quick cal-
culation of block or pavers for desired wall area or pavement square footage. Before printing
a detailed receipt and logging a transaction for pick/devery tickets and accounting, the POS
module displays number of bundles, section, bands, and stock units.
Universal Mason Software enterprise features cover automatic inventory or printed
inventory conversions, pallet & product return controls, and full back-order tracking. An
Inventory Control & Purchasing platform provides tools to manage stock replenishment,
drop-ship orders, and parts flow. An Auto Generate Purchase Orders feature streamlines
procurement, while keeping full order control under a manager. A Scale Interface for yards
handling raw materials captures load and tare weights, computes net product weight,
transfers seamlessly to Point-of-Sale to expedite checkout, and identifies sale ticket with
vehicle information that has not been completed in POS. Accounting modules include
accounts receivable and payable, general ledger and bank reconciliation.
Universal Mason Software also interfaces with scanning and swipe devices that read or
capture driver's licer\se or credit cards, barcodes and electronic signatures. Rounding out the
masonry yard program is a management reporting and quick-view Financial Status Dashboard,
