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.
Always Connected
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.

Smart Lists

Smart Lists
DocketManager gives users access to a lot of information, so we’ve designed Smart Lists to make common searches easier. Smart lists are saved searches that give the desired information, immediately. Quickly filter through the active sales quotes, the jobs that were invoiced today, the jobs that need to ship with the local courier in the morning, and more! There are no limits to the ways in which users can leverage Smart Lists.

Tasks

Tasks
Task management keeps everything running smoothly, and ensures that nothing falls through the cracks. Create and assign tasks for any user to follow up on a quote, review an invoice, or to double check some artwork. DocketManager keeps all of these tasks organized with direct links to the customers, quotes, or orders they are associated with to make tasks easy to manage.

Emails

Emails
Sending an email should not require numerous steps and hoops to jump through. DocketManager has made it incredibly easy to email within the system. Quotes, Invoices, Statements, Proofs and so much more are sent with only a couple steps and by leveraging our email templates you can spend your time focusing on more important tasks.

Storing these files in DocketManager makes generating a reprint effortless. Did someone say “time saver”?

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!
