Pooling   Fulfilling the many and varied requirements of grower co-operatives, ‘Pooling’ enables growers to be paid for produce supplied on a pooled price basis   This module is designed to handle payment for brassicas and other produce, packed either in the field or the pack-house, where pools are calculated over consecutive fixed length periods. Payments are calculated by deducting costs, either standard or actual, from the revenue obtained from the sale of members produce. The resultant net pool value can then be shared out, on a pro-rata basis, according to individual input. Charges specific to individual growers may be deducted before final payment is made. The module contains comprehensive report and document production facilities, many of them definable to suit customer needs.
