Billing and accounting software for Surat
In Surat most of the value is added by somebody else. Grey cloth goes to a dyer, comes back as a lot, goes to an embroidery unit, comes back shorter, and is sold by the metre at a rate set that morning. Software that cannot follow fabric out of the building is not much use here.
| Stage | At | Metres | Cost / m |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grey purchase | Own godown | 2,000.0 | 82.40 |
| Sent to dyeing | Sri Venkat | 2,000.0 | 82.40 |
| Returned dyed | Own godown | 1,946.0 | 98.60 |
What Surat businesses use it for
Lot-wise fabric stock
Grey, dyed and finished lots held separately, because two lots of the same quality will not match and the customer will notice.
Job work at processors
Fabric at a dyer or an embroidery unit stays on your books, tracked against the challan, with what came back reconciled against what went.
Shrinkage costed, not lost
The metres that do not come back are recorded as a cost of the lot rather than disappearing between two stock figures.
Metres and kilograms
Bought by weight, processed by weight, sold by the metre — conversions held on the item.
Daily rates
Rates that move with the yarn market, with quotations holding their own rate until they expire.
Long credit, watched closely
Surat terms are long and the ageing is the business. Limits per party, enforced when the order is taken.
Questions from Surat businesses
Can I track fabric sent to a dyer or processor?
Yes — it goes out on a job work challan and stays your stock at their premises. What returns is reconciled against what went out, and the shrinkage is costed into the lot rather than quietly lost, which is the number most Surat traders cannot currently produce.
How is lot-wise stock handled?
Each lot is tracked separately through grey, processing and finished stages, with its own cost. That matters because a shade difference between lots of the same quality is a return waiting to happen, and the invoice records which lot went to which customer.
Can I buy in kilograms and sell in metres?
Yes, with the conversion held against the item, so the purchase, the job work challan and the sale each use the unit that stage actually uses.
Does tBiz handle embroidery and value-addition units?
Yes, as job work of the same kind as dyeing — material out on a challan, value added elsewhere, material back with a cost attached.
