Why Jim2® Managed Print Services Edition?
In
consultation with the Australian Photocopier Industry, Happen Business
has developed
Jim2® Business Engine Managed Print Services Edition, an Accounting
and ERP Business Solution designed specifically for the Australian
Photocopier Industry. Happen Business found that copier businesses needed
software that could keep pace with the changing face of the copier
business and also to
automate a lot of the processes that are
associated with running a profitable copier sales and maintenance
business.
The accounts and administration side of running a copier
business are difficult… to say the least. Many existing systems,
such as accounting software, service management and meter request
applications were just not performing as promised. Happen Business
developed
Jim2® Business Engine as a powerful all-in-one multi-user Enterprise Resource
Planning solution that makes accounts, administration and service management a breeze.

Jim2® Managed Print Services Edition Reports
Jim2® provides reports that
make your life a whole lot easier...
Meter
Profit Report – Analyse your contracted machines performance based on
unlimited meter or counters.
This comprehensive report
gives total page counts revenue and costs for each machine in a list for
all meter information collected for that machine. This may include
scanner meters, fax meters, print meters and 'Minimum Charge' and 'Base
Charge' information. Use the powerful LIST functionality in Jim2
® to drill
down on your 'Machines in Field', or MIF, for Period, Make/Model,
Contract Type, Machine Type, Priority, Technician, Client and/or Site
and much more, including any combination. Save the report for use in MS
Excel or other spreadsheet or BI applications for further analysis.
Machine Cost Per Copy – Quickly analyse your
cost structure based on cost per copy for your entire MIF or for
individual machines. The Cost per Copy reports in Jim2
® support unlimited meters so you can analyse Colour as well as Black
meters. Other systems in the market just analyse the CPC for Total Pages
of a machine. Jim2
® Managed Print Services Edition analyses even scanner meters etc,
if you wish. You can even analyse machines under ‘Prepaid Page'
contracts. Using the List functionality in Jim2
® you can drill down on your MIF for detailed analysis of your contracts by Customer, Make/Model,
Contract Type and much more. This report can be printed or saved in MS
Excel format for further analysis or comparison.
Machine Profit Report –
2 types of reports1. From
the individual machine record, and
2. From a Jim2
® machine list.
The
first gives a Financial History summary or detailed report for all Jobs
(Calls) for a Machine record. This report includes Billing details
(Pages or Clicks sold), Actual Labour and Billed Labour (if applicable)
and all parts and toner used. The Detailed Report gives this information
broken down by individual job. The second Machine Profit report is from a
Machine list. This report is designed to analyse your MIF and provide
financial data (GP Margin) using the powerful 'Jim2
® Lists
functionality.
Job Profit

technician or any other criteria (eg. serial number).
