MIS built to handle your business
More often than not we see companies that are disjointed. Departments are operating independently from one another, opposed to working together fluidly. This method leads to an increase in mistakes and wasted time, resulting in diminishing profits. Your MIS should be solving your business problems, not creating them. DocketManager provides everything your business needs to successfully work in harmony through a single all-encompassing solution.

Cobbling multiple systems together is an incredibly inefficient process, causing many avoidable errors that cost time and money. DocketManager ties your entire business together through a single solution, and since it is cloud based, you can access it from any internet connected device.

POS
POS
DocketManager knows how busy business can be, so we built the POS to fast-pace the order entry and checkout process! It’s easy. Create products, add the products to the POS, then select products to add to cart, make some small changes if desired, accept payment, and push orders through to production.
Outsourcing
Outsourcing
Not completing the work in house? No problem! With DocketManager, store all of the job specs and pricing to allocate work for all or just part of the job. Users can even store quotes from multiple vendors and later choose which vendor serves the user best. With DocketManager, users can also send out the PO with artwork directly from the system.
Timers
Timers
One of the greatest areas where money is lost is untracked and therefore unbilled time. DocketManager makes it easy to track time on any individual part of a job, whether it is artwork design, press runtime, or various bindery functions. By tracking this information nothing is ever missed, and companies can either get paid for the work that they perform, or adjust their estimating to capture accurate revenue in the future.
Budgets
Budgets
Working with clients that need to work within allocated budgets? With DocketManager, budgets can be restricted to specific users, can be single use, or can be a rolling budget that can be reset daily, weekly, monthly or annually. Budgets are available to work with either the MIS or W2P modules.
Alerts
Alerts
Task assignment, feedback from a customer regarding a proof that was sent, and a quote approval are all examples of alerts that DocketManager sends their users to keep them up to date. DocketManager’s in-app notification center will make sure these key actions throughout the day will not go unnoticed!
Custom Statuses
Custom Statuses
Every business’ workflow is a little different, so with custom statuses from DocketManager users can create their own custom internal language! Custom statuses are colored icons that are associated with quotes and orders. It’s simple -- choose the icon from our vast library, assign it a color, and then save it to the library. A green airplane could signify a rush job (what job isn’t these days?) or a pink star could signify a hard copy proof is required. We have seen our clients get creative with this versatile tool!
Custom Export
Custom Export
DocketManager helps centralize all business information, but sometimes that business information needs to be exported in a different way. We have built a tool so users can pull out all of the necessary information needed, the way it’s needed, into a simple and clean .csv. Users can pull everything, or pull exactly what information required for individual projects. Go ahead, get creative!
