Fast-Weigh may refer to records differently than your previous system. This list may help you become familiar with our terminology.
Customer: Purchaser of your Products
Region: The highest Level of the Location Hierarchy. Regions contain Locations. Regions can be used to segregate by proximity or by billing entity.
Location: Middle Level of the Location Hierarchy. Typically refers to a Quarry/Pit. Locations contain Yards. Locations are also the level at which global products can be assigned.
Yard: Lowest Level of the Location hierarchy. Yards can be used to segregate activity at a location. A yard is created automatically when you create a location but more can be added if needed.
Product: Material being sold
Hauler: Carrier/Owner of Trucks
Truck: Vehicle belonging to a Hauler
Order: Combines Customer and Product to create a Job that can be ticketed. Orders are region specific but can contain products from multiple locations as long as they are in the same region

Batch: Group of Invoices. You may hear the billing process be referred to as Batching. This is simply the process of searching for tickets and assigning them a Batch #.
Report: Document generated by Fast-Weigh that displays data for easier interpretation. Our report building software is also used to create Ticket Templates, Invoices, Statements and E-Tickets.

The Truck List Search Box can match the following fields: Truck IDs, Hauler Names, License, AutoID, and Driver.
By default, there are only 5 required fields for creating a ticket: Truck, Customer, Order, Product, Weight.
Select the appropriate records by either typing the ID into the field or clicking the List Icon to search the associated list.
Optionally, a Ticket Note can be added by clicking the Ticket Note Button and typing into the text box:
Once you have selected the correct records, capture the weight for the ticket. This can be done a number of ways:

Before you can add products to an order, they must have default pricing set up for the locations where those orders will be ticketed.
The first step for setting up your Products & Pricing is to create the Products, Product Locations, and Pricing Templates. Please go to the Adding & Managing Products article if you have not done this yet.
Remember: the default pricing set up on the Products screen is not completely inflexible. The final place where product pricing can be edited is at the Order level. Any pricing changes you make on the Order will override the default pricing you set up under Resources > Products.
Go to Resources > Products > Products & Pricing.
On the [Product Pricing] tab, enter in the filters for the Product Pricing you wish to set and click [Refresh].
This will load all of the Products that are available to add default pricing to for the set parameters.
Note: The Proposed Price is an optional tool to "stage" a price change. You can enter in a new price before enacting a price update that can be applied to the Current Price in bulk later on.
Add in a Default Surcharge and set the Surcharge Type.
If you use Price Adjustments, you can set default Adjustments for the Template.
Click the [Save] button to save the extra defaults.
Repeat this process for each product and Template that will be used for Ticketing.
To add or edit a default price, find the specific Product, Location, and Price Template in the list and then click on the pencil icon to edit it.
This will bring up a text box inside of the table where you can enter in the Current Price and a Proposed Price. After the desired price has been entered, click the check mark to save or the prohibit symbol to delete.
Once a Price is set, you will then see the [More] button where you can add in additional default pricing.

You can make changes to invoices if you notice a mistake or if something needs to be changed. The method will vary depending on the pay type of the order.
The Fast Weigh Web Portal is a browser based tool used for administration of your Fast Weigh account. While the Fast Weigh Desktop Application is primarily used for ticketing at a scale house, the Web Portal allows users to invoice, generate quotes and reports, manage trucks and haulers, or track inventory. The Web Portal has a variety of applications standardized for most businesses, and a catalogue of additional modules that can be requested as needed. In the Reference menu, you will find a complete breakdown of each section and menu option within the Web Portal.
For assistance within the Web Portal or the Desktop Application, please contact Fast Weigh Support by emailing support@tacinsight.com or by phone at 865-219-2980.
The following will provide a basic outline of the information found within the Tickets tab in your Fast-Weigh Application.

Make any necessary changes to the ticket and leave a Revision Note
Click [Save]
You can make changes to tickets if you notice an error.
If you are changing the weights ensure you change the Net Units as this field is not automatically calculated if making an edit.
If you need to make an edit to a ticket on a Cash order you will need to perform a Credit/Rebill before any changes take effect. If you do not perform a Credit/Rebill the information will change, but the dollar amounts will not change unless the Credit/Rebill is performed first.
This applies to an order with a pay type set to Cash, Credit Card, and Check.

This article will outline the use case and nuance of our new pricing tools.
As of Sept. 1st 2024 we updated our web portal to include new pricing and repricing options for tickets. This article will lay out where these tools can be found and how to utilize them.
There is now a "Pricing" column in the ticket query:
First lets look at rates and the Lock Rate option:
Changing the rate in this pop-up will change the rates for the particular ticket when it comes time to batch your tickets. You may check the "Lock Rate" box to lock any or all of the rates on a particular ticket to ensure the rates do not get updated when batching via the Reprice Checkbox on the New Billing screen, more on this later.
Next lets look at Tax Code, Update Tickets, and the Update Order Product checkboxes:
You may use the Tax Code drop down to change the Tax Code on the particular ticket. If you need to change the tax code on all of the unbilled tickets on an order for a particular products you can check the Update Tickets checkbox to accomplish this. Checking the Update Tickets checkbox will update the tax code on all unbilled tickets that share the same order product.
The Update Order Product checkbox will take any changes you made to the ticket and apply them to the order product for any future tickets ran on the order. This will also allow you to make an edit to a single ticket and reprice in bulk while in the new billing screen via use of "Reprice Selected Tickets" or the Reprice Checkbox. See New Billing Reprice for more on this.
Lock Rates are checked by default on tickets that are ran on an order with a Cash pay type set. Cash pay types include Cash, Check, and Credit Card.
Lock Rates are unchecked by default on tickets ran on an order with a Charge pay type. Charge pay types include Charge Show and Charge Hide.
Pay Types are set at the order level. Be sure to check the order to confirm what pay type the ticket was ran as. See Orders for more information on pay types.
There are two places within an order that include repricing tickets, the first is in the Update Products window:
This window allows you to easily update all products on an order. Take care to notice the Reprice Unbilled Tickets checkbox here, as if you leave this checked once you click "Save" all of the unbilled tickets for that order will reflect the new rates that were set. See Orders if you would like more information on the fields in this window.
The second place to reprice tickets is in the order product edit screen:
You can now use the order product edit screen to reprice all unbilled tickets for a particular product on an order. You may also uncheck this box if you need your current unbilled tickets to maintain the previous pricing.
There are three places in the New Billing tab of the Billing screen that allow you to change ticket pricing, and the first is another Pricing column similar to the Ticket Query:
This pop-up is to alert you that the tickets that are checked as selected will be reset. In this case, if you were to only have one ticket selected and click "Ok" on this pop-up it will reset to all tickets being checked. Once you click "Ok" you will be met with the same Edit Ticket Pricing pop-up from the Ticket Query.
The options here function the same as the Edit Ticket Pricing from the Ticket Query.
The Reprice Selected Tickets button will reprice all tickets selected in the billing screen to match the pricing that is set on the order product. This action is completed immediately after clicking the button, so ensure you are certain you would like to change pricing before clicking the button.
If you typically run Pre-Billing Pricing Verification reports before batching tickets and your ticket pricing seems off on the report we recommend Repricing Selected Tickets and double checking the report. This typically sets the pricing to what is expected.
Charge Types are considered Charge Show and Charge Hide. Follow the steps outlined below to make an edit to these invoices.
Navigate to Billing/AR > Billing or Billing if you do not use our AR module:
Navigate to Billing History:
Search for the invoice using the Invoice # search box:
Expand the batch by clicking the arrow to the left of the Region:
Click the [Actions] button on the invoice row to bring up the following:
Click [X Clear] to bring up the following:
Check the box and click OK and you're done!
Once your current pricing templates have been updated with the new pricing, you can use the powerful Open Order Price Update tool to do a price update on all open orders across the board.
Updating pricing through the Open Order Update Tool will also update ALL unbilled tickets for the Orders that are affected. If you wish to preserve any prices for current tickets, make sure to batch tickets through the Billing module. Due to the extensive changes applied by this tool and the potential for error if used without caution, this tool is reserved for Admin user accounts only. This tool is used to enact mass, system-wide updates. This cannot be undone! Use with care! We highly recommend using the "Price Update Review" report under the Orders category to review the pricing and orders that will be affected by a mass price update.
Navigate to "Reports" > "Reports - New Tab"
Review your new Pricing Template Defaults using the Price Update Review report under the Orders category of the Reporting page to make sure everything is correct.
Update any Prices in the Product Pricing table, if needed.
Navigate to "Resources" > "Products & Pricing"
Click the Open Order Price Update button on the top-right of the Product Pricing table
Set the Region and Location where you want your open order product pricing updated, or update All Locations
Set a Customer if you want the update to only affect open orders attached to that customer
If you do not choose a customer, the changes will apply across all customers
Check the boxes for the information you want to update from the temples to the Order-Products
Update Pricing: Updates the Material Rate on the Order-Products from the Pricing column
Update Surcharges: Updates the Surcharge Rate and type on the Order-Products from the "More" pricing pop-up
Update Adjustments: Updates the Adjustments on the Order-Products from the "More" pricing pop-up
Click [✓Update] to run the Open Order Price Update tool for all Active and Inactive Orders marked as Open that match your set criteria.

You may also view an archived ticket by clicking the button. This will download a PDF of the material ticket.
This module allows you to manage and track trucks, haulers, and the deliveries requested. Before a truck can be used for Requests, you will need to enable dispatching for both the Hauler and Trucks.
Dispatching is an additional module that will need to be added to your Fast-Weigh subscription. If you are interested in adding this module, please contact us at 865-219-2980 or support@tacinsight.com
This section allows the overall management of the Dispatching module. From here you can add trucks to be requested, submit and alert drivers of new Requests, and a summary report of all Requests.
The Requests table is the main screen for managing Dispatching. Here you can view and edit your Requests at-a-glance. You can add new trucks, alert drivers, make changes, or review individual truck requests.
The Trucks table provides an overview of your Requests organized by the assigned Trucks. Here, you can quickly review how many Requests a Truck has for a set time frame, add the Truck to an existing Request, and edit the Truck's existing Requests
Your Requests Whiteboard provides a different view of your Requests. Here, you can see summary cards of the Request, as well as make edits to the Request and send alerts.
Allows you to add or edit drivers available per Hauler, as well as set them to active or inactive depending on their availablity. This section includes adding their phone number used to send SMS messages and alerts related to each assigned Request.
Live Tracking provides location data based on the position of the Request. With the Lat/Long selected, the Request can be tracked from the time of pick-up to delivery. With the map provided by Microsoft Azure, you can view any traffic or weather conditions that may be affecting the delivery.
The Tracking Query allows you to view all tracked Requests and their event history, including Pickup, Start/Stop, and Delivery date and time for each request. This also provides a map of the GPS location at the event time for review.
The Request Import allows uploading of previous Requests from a .CSV file.
Our reporting tool allows you to pull production reports across a variety of of preset categories. Selecting the primary and subcategories will allow you to select the parameters listed on the right of the screen, providing granular control of the information presented. Clicking Refresh will return the requested information.
Some reports may return a timeout error depending on the parameters selected. For example, if you are attempting to run a report for an Invoice Summary with a date range of 2018-2023, you may need to request individual years for all Settled invoices instead.
Scheduled Reports is an additional module that will need to be added to your Fast-Weigh subscription. Please contact Fast-Weigh at support@tacinsight.com or call 865-219-2980.
Scheduled Reports allows you to automatically generate and deliver a variety of reports for internal staff, customers, and haulers at intervals you set. Scheduled Reports can be sent to any valid email address, not just portal users. This provides a simple solution to acquire requested information at a time that is convenient to you instead of manually running them. For example, requesting all Voided Ticket Transactions at the close of business, or the Hauler Pay Summary at the end of the month.
Custom reports can also be generated with the Scheduled Reports module. If you do not see your Custom report, or would like to request a Custom report, please reach out to our Support team.
Analytics is an additional module that will need to be added to your Fast-Weigh subscription. Please contact Fast-Weigh at support@tacinsight.com or call 865-219-2980.
Analytics provides a visual insight to your organizations data with easily digestible charts and reports for categories like sales, trucks, customers, products, and more.
Custom reports are available if a Default Report does not contain the information available from your organizations data. This can be anything from including or removing a surcharge price, discount or credit, or providing a daily report of trucks and orders.
Detailed information regarding the Inventory tab of the Inventory module.
Here you are able to filter down which products you are tracking inventory for by setting a Region, Location, and a Through Date.
Once you have established which parameters you would like to filter by the associated products will populate in the table below. You can select one of the products on the first table, and this will populate the Set/Adjust/Receive and Tickets table at the bottom of the screen.
In the Set/Adjust/Receive table you are able to create entries for your inventory. These entries are, just as the name of the tab implies:
Set: You can set your starting inventory with this
Adjust: Used to adjust inventory - Use positive values to increase inventory and use negative values to decrease inventory
Receiving: Used to account for receiving inventory if you are not utilizing inbound ticketing
You can set the Date, Reference, Quantity, and add a Note. Use the reference for your internal record keeping, and a note can be any useful additional information.
The Quantity is based on the units of your product (Yard or Ton).
Must Set inventory for tracking to begin, and inventory will be adjusted automatically when ticketing on inbound or outbound orders.
Detailed information on the Assignment tab within the Trucks module
Here you are able to assign trucks to particular Orders and Order Products, and this makes it easier to ticket on this truck as the scale operators will only need to enter the Truck ID when ticketing on the assigned truck.
When you click on the Assignment tab you will see a table with all of your assignments listed, and you are able to Search or use the Filter Funnels to narrow your search to a specific assignment. You are able to clear an assignment by clicking the "X Clear" button in the assignment table.
To add a new assignment click the "+ New Assignment" button on the top right of the assignment table:
Once the new assignment window has popped up you may fill out the information for the truck assignment:
Region - The region the order and customer for the relevant product to be selected
Order - The order for the relevant customer and product to be selected
Product - The desired product you would like the truck to be assigned to
Once you have filled out the above fields you just need to check one or more trucks to be assigned to the order product, and once you click "Save" the truck(s) will now be assigned to a specific order product!
Here will just be a quick example of how the truck assignment translates to the Ticketing App, and how it will look to the scale operator ticketing the trucks.
Above is how the ticketing app appears before ticketing. The truck assignment cuts down on the time it takes to set up a ticket for a specific truck. Using the example in the previous image of the assignment table:
When ticketing on a specific truck that has been assigned to a product, the ticketing app will automatically fill out the Customer, Order, and Product fields so that the operator should only need to enter the weight of the truck.
The truck will remain assigned to the particular product until the assignment has been Cleared from the assignments page
To clear an assignment simply click the "X Clear" button in the assignment table on the assignment you wish to clear.
Click "Ok" on the pop-up and the assignment will be cleared, and once the Ticketing App has been synced the truck will no longer populate the Order, Customer, and Product automatically.
Detailed information regarding the Dashboard page of the Inventory Module
Here you can set Region, Location, and Through Date to see specific inventory data. There is a table with the relevant products on the left side of the screen, and the associated graph of the product inventory on the right side.
The table will provide the Region, Location, Yard, Product, and Current Inventory. You may click any of the column headers to sort by ascending or descending.
This graph provides a visual representation of the current inventory of the filtered products. You can hover over the bars to get the numerical value, and you can filter down how much information is shown here by setting the Region, Location, and Through Date.
The Y-axis is Units and the X-axis is the products.
Requests are the backbone of the Dispatching module. Requests are order product specific which means it is specific to a Location, Order, Product and date range.

The tickets menu displays "loose" cash tickets that have yet to be paid. Selecting these tickets will allow you to group selected tickets to be paid for the desired customer, then create and distribute the invoice to the contacts available. This does not create a batch - you will not find the tickets under New Billing.
The information differs from the invoices in that it contains the ticket information such as products and orders. After determining the correct tickets, select the desired tickets bu clicking the checkboxes to the left of the ticket number. The right of the cash ticket table will automatically calculate the Invoice Amount Total, and the Invoice Date will default to the current date.

Then, you will apply the credit or debit by clicking the [+New Transaction] button.
In the new window you will select between the transaction date and type, then apply the amount and a description of the transaction as a reference. A transaction date can be selected for a future date if you wish for the credit to be available at a later time.
Fast-Weigh features a flexible billing system that integrates with third-party accounting systems. This section allows you to organize groups of tickets into batches for invoicing a customer. Once a batch is defined, the system will automatically generate invoice numbers and group tickets into invoices. You can change your settings for how invoices are created in the .
Under the New Billing tab, users can query tickets by a number of different search parameters and produce filtered groups of tickets to assign to a custom batch. Typically, this would be done on a daily or weekly basis to correspond with your organization’s customer billing cycle.
Navigate to the Billing menu, and then the New Billing tab.
Set the parameters at the top to view the tickets you wish to group into a Batch to be billed.
The grid below will populate with tickets that can be batched.
You can also group tickets together in the grid based on one or more columns by dragging the column header to the bar above it.
Use the checkboxes on the left of the grid to select which tickets you wish to add to a Batch.
Verify the data and make any changes as needed. The Edit, Pricing, and PO Adjustment buttons allow you to update Pricing or Tax Codes, edit the ticket directly, or adjust the PO Number associated with the ticket.
Note: Be aware that changing or editing tickets or their prices will clear all ticket selections.
Once the Tickets in the New Billing query have been verified, assign them a Batch Number via the field at the top right of the table.
This field is limited to 10 characters. Generally, this Batch Number will be in a date or Region + date format.
For example: A batch created for a region named “West” on 10/15/2016 could be batched as W-101516.
Assign a Company Code to the Batch, if needed.
Set the Invoice and GL Date for the Batch, if needed.
The GL (General Ledger) Date is only needed if your accounting system supports secondary Invoicing dates.
Invoice Numbers are assigned automatically and sequentially to each Order or Customer (based on your billing settings) within the Batch.
Click Assign to create the Invoice Batch.
Once a Batch has been created, the Tickets will be moved from the New Billing page to their appropriate Batch in the Billing History section.
On the Billing History screen, use the parameters on the top to view individual Batches or view Batches from a specific date range, then Export them or send them directly to a customer.
Fast-Weigh supports direct transmission of invoices to both Viewpoint, Spectrum Accounts Receivable/Job Requisition and QuickBooks Online without needing to import any files or third-party tools.

Clear: Use this to clear a Batch so that you can make changes and re-Batch under the New Billing tab.
Print: Allows you to print from a PDF copy of the selected Invoice Batch.
Email: You can email invoices directly to customers.
You may also export, clear, print, or email individual Invoices within a Batch by clicking the arrow on the left of the table next to the Region column.
Contained in this menu is the [Action] button, which will allow you to clear the invoice or to issue a Credit/Rebill, which credits invoice, creates credit memo, and creates new tickets for rebilling. This process can be reviewed in the next section.
A Credit/Rebill action credits the invoice, creates credit memo, and creates new tickets for rebilling. This process should be used when attempting to edit tickets that have been created from orders with a Cash Pay Type since these types of transactions are understood by Fast-Weigh as immediate transactions.
To issue a Credit/Rebill:
Navigate to the "Billing History" tab
New drop down menu labeled "Batch Type"
View invoices, credits, or both
Expand the invoice to see the "Actions" button
When an invoice is credited, it will attach "-CR" to the end of the batch number.
This can be customized
Back date the invoice date if needed
Hit "Credit/Rebill," select "I understand and wish to proceed," and hit "OK"
When you hit print on the invoice, you can see that the total is now negative
If you query your ticket number, it will only show the current version of the ticket. (Which can be rebilled again).
You can change your view by selecting it in the new "Type" dropdown menu.
After a ticket has been credited and rebilled, you will notice the "Type" column updated to reflect the action taken on the ticket. This is also reflected in the "Material Amount" column, where the material amount is changed between a negative and positive value.
In order to credit a ticket without rebilling it, all you have to do is void the current version of the ticket be editing the ticket in the ticket query.
Click the [Edit] button.
Click the "Void" checkbox and fill in each Note field.
Click [Save]
Billing is a default module in Fast-Weigh. To expand your AR and Invoice features, please contact support at 865-219-2980 or support@tacinsight.com.

The Invoice / Payment Query functions similar to the Ticket Query. Having an invoice or Batch to reference will allow you to view the transactional data, apply adjustments, or update its status.
Similar to the New Payment batching, batching tickets and payments to export to your external AR software can be achieved in this section, which also allows you to review previous batches and their content.
If your customer overpays, has a late payment, or requests a refund, this can be managed in the Customer Credit screen. Selecting the customer will display the amount owed, and will change based on the credit or debit option selected.
Truck Adjustments allow you to add or deduct from a Hauler payment based on Types that you have created in the Setup menu. These adjustments are applied by selecting Hauler Pay>Truck Adjustments and then clicking the [+New Adjustment] button. This will open a new window allowing you to select the desired parameters. If your organization has a hauler operating in more than one Region, you may have different Types created that will need to be associated between Regions depending on the order location.
In the above example, our Hauler will be paid $3.00 per Gallon of fuel while operating the Belt Region.

Clicking any result listings will jump the selection highlight to that line.

There are a few options when selecting statements, which will allow you to print all available statements (which will provide .PDFs), sending all statements to the contact emails, or allow for individual statements to be viewed.
Print All Statements will provide all statements as a .PDF. Depending on the selection, you can select only statements that do not have an associated email address. This allows you to print a physical copy of the invoice to be sent via traditional mail.
Send All Statements will send all statements to the associated email. There is no prompt for this action to select specific emails. You will need to ensure that the customer has a requested email or other contact listed for invoices in their Resources>Customer profile.

When selecting an invoice status, you will have the option of selecting from three different types: Open, Closed, and Settled.
The Payments menu allows you to review payments made on your invoices or issue refunds.
Similar to the Invoices screen, the information presented can result in multiple entries for the same customer, and clicking the arrow to the left of the customer will display the payment information. Instead of viewing the tickets associated with the invoices, you will see the total value of the invoices and the batch name.
Similar to the Invoice screen, the furthest two columns on the right contain the options to review or refund the payments made. If a payment is made, the Receipt button will provide a .pdf including the payment details present on the main table.

Original Payment Method: Returns the payment to the origin source for credit cards or ACH payments. Cash and check payments

You also have the ability to post adjustments to your invoices prior to accepting payments for discounts or any missed fees that may not have been applied. These adjustments are made in the menu.
To edit or adjust an invoice, select the button. This will open a new window, allowing you to select the Invoice Status and apply adjustments and/or notes for the settlement.
Though we offer a large number of default reports, ticket formats, invoice formats, quote formats, and hauler pay formats, we understand that some customers need highly customized reports to fit their operations.
To add a Custom Report, Ticket, or Quote to your Fast-Weigh subscription, contact us at 865-219-2980 or support@tacinsight.com.
If your company needs to be able to view reporting information that cannot be generated using a default report, our reporting team can work with you to modify an existing report or create a brand new report to fit your needs. We can customize almost every aspect of our reports to make sure you get the information you need from your Fast-Weigh suite.
Additionally, we can modify or create reports to be used as Scheduled Reports. These work a bit differently than regular reports (since they do not use standard reporting parameters), so a custom report will require additional work by our team to copy over as a Scheduled Report.
We understand that your company may need scale tickets to reflect information specific to your business, so we offer the ability to use a customized ticket format. A customized scale ticket can be formatted to show additional information pulled from the Web Portal or hard-coded directly onto the ticket or to hide information that is not necessary for your business.
Our quotes, invoices, and hauler pay statements can also be completely customized. While our default formats display relevant information with a simple design, we can modify these formats to suit your needs. We are also able to make changes to the information that is shown on these reports, though we recommend keeping the costing information relatively close to the default formats.
This area allows you to add or deduct from the Hauler Pay based on preset values entered during Setup. You would typically use this for any rate changes or unforeseen costs that a Hauler might encur during delivery such as toll roads.
Similar the Billing - New Payment screen, this allows you to generate a new Hauler Payment, review previous payments, or batch and invoice tickets.
Truck Adjustments
Statements
Setup
Adjustments can be made to hauler pay rates after creating the type of adjustment during Setup. These adjustments can be created for various reasons, such as extra miles or minutes driven, or unforseen costs related to toll roads.
The Hauler Pay module allows you to organize groups of tickets into batches for invoicing a Hauler, much like the Invoicing module, based on Haul Rates set for orders.
Setup allows you to create or edit Hauler Pay adjusments as additional costs or deductions.
Utilizing Microsoft Power BI, our Analytics module contains the most powerful reporting tool used by Fast-Weigh, providing you with organizational data pulled from each module enabled with your Fast-Weigh account.
Each module allows you to review a variety of metric data generated by your organization. Some of these useful reports include Quotes Won, Product Usage, and Orders by Customer.
Using Analytics, you have more control over the data requested and how this information is relayed using pre-built charts and graphs. Each Category has its own submenu at the base of the main window. This allows you to segregate the information by fixed parameters without needing to filter further. However, each menu does offer it's own filters, allowing more granular control over the requested information.
In the above image, we're using the Billing and Sales category, and have the Sales by Customer submenu selected. On the right section of this screen we have the option of filtering further to display information specific to this submenu. Each listing in the table to the left can also be collapsed to removing any unnecessary information.
Once you have your desired information available or narrowed down, you can export this various aspects of your data. Clicking the More Options will allow a handful of additional sorting features, as well as the option to Export.
Exporting between selections will vary. Some tables will be available as they are displayed, some as a summary, and others as the Underlying data. Exports can be made in both .csv and .xlsx file types.
If there is a specific section of data you with to export in a report, you can select "Show as a Table", which will isolate the information as a table and allow you to export only that information.
The main page allows you to view your customer database. You can filter to view individual Regions if you have multiple, and each column can be filtered and searched as well. Any information contained in the customer listing can be searched, and any matching characters will display in the table, removing any listing that does not contain this information.
Searching can be filtered from the following columns:
ID: The shorthand customer identification.
Customer Name: The full customer name.
Address: The customer address.
City/State/Zip: The customer city, state, and postal code.
Phone: The customer contact number.
Company Code: A customer code assigned when communicating with external accounting software.

Do Not Sell: Adds (DNS) to the customer name, new orders default to Inactive status, and all Active orders are set to Inactive status. This customer will no longer be selected when ticketing.
Closed: This customer is no longer available to select for orders or ticketing.
When the Credit Status is switched from Do Not Sell, all Inactive orders are set to the Active status.
The Do Not Sell and Closed credit statuses are not interchangeable. Do Not Sell should be used when the customer (or product) is unavailable, but anticipated to return to usual business. Closed should be used when the customer (or product) is no longer available or is not anticipated to return to usual business. Examples below:
Do Not Sell: Bob's Rocks is known as a primary source providing Pea Gravel, and unexpectedly run into low inventory. The owner informs you that this product will not be available to fill until more has been acquired, but is also closing for the holidays. During this time, Bob's Rocks should be set to Do Not Sell until they reopen in the new year with new inventory. All Active orders will be set to Inactive so they cannot be selected for ticketing in Fast-Weigh.
Closed: Bob's Rocks has been operating in the region for 20 years. The owner informs that they are permanently closing for business at the end of the quarter. At that time, all Active orders will be set to Closed, and the customer will now longer be available to create new orders or ticket in Fast-Weigh.

All default reports are marked with required parameters, and most have optional fields to focus on desired information. These fields are not required for the report to provide information. Certain information can also be searched for after the report has been generated by clicking the search icon in the reporting toolbar, provided that the information is included in the report.
If a specific default report does not contain all of the information you require, please reach out to our support team and we can assist in determining if another default report category may, or if a custom report is needed.

The Resources tab contains all the information your organization needs to use Fast-Weigh, including the customers, products, and locations which you will be ticketing on.
The Customer view will show a snapshot of all of your customers, and allow you to add, edit, or delete them as needed.
If you are migrating your customer base to Fast Weigh from another system, you can use the + External Customer import option. You can view a sample of the import format here ____.
When adding a new or potential Customer to Fast Weigh, this area allows you to insert key information useful to managing their account, such as contacts within their organization, billing terms and tax codes, and their preferred payment method.
The Products & Pricing sub-menu allows you to setup products, pricing templates, assign locations, or apply a surcharge. Products are setup in the Product Listing to contain a product ID and a unit of measurement. If you have created a product category, you can assign this category to each product. This is helpful as a reference for products that you may not use often or are entered as measurements.
The Product Location is used to assign a product to a single location or multiple, allowing the product to be used when ticketing at those locations.
Pricing Templates are used when you are setting up the Product Pricing. After creating the template in the Product Setup tab, you will select the Template from the dropdown menu, and then adjust the pricing.
Creating a Product Category will allow you to assign Products to a certain group. For example, you may be using multiple types of stone or gravel. Differentiating between the two when creating pricing becomes easier when a category for either is selected.
A Region can be associated with a state, business, or other geographical location. Think about this as a house, while the Locations would be the rooms, and the Yards would be the beds. Clicking Region will show the Locations associated with it.
A Location would be the primary location of the pit or quarry that operates within the Region. The Locations are tied to ticketing devices, which will need to be set up before the Fast Weigh Desktop Application can be used. Clicking into the Region will show the Locations associated with it, and clicking Locations will show the associated Yards.
Yards associated with each Location differ in the material being provided or received. Each Yard will need to have its own Product Pricing and Product Setup completed before Orders can be placed.
