Welcome to the snapSales documentation.

What is snapSales?

snapSales is a software platform for produce marketing companies.

Key features:

  • Track inventory accurately and with ease.
  • Attract and retain suppliers with flexible, 100% auditable, payment options.
  • Impress customers with click-through traceability and clear documentation.
  • Empower staff with fast, efficient processing and accurate information at their fingertips.
  • Communicate with NZ Customs and MPI without the need for 3rd party software.
  • Integrate easily with existing financial systems - or use the built-in debtors, creditors and general ledger capability.

New Zealand Apples and Pears

snapSales heritage is in the New Zealand fruit industry. It offers specialised support for apple industry standards such as:

  • importing product and lookup codes from published master-data;
  • importing stock-on-hand and transfer XML files;
  • importing orchard registrations and compliance market status from Pipfruit NZ;
  • the Pipfruit NZ market declaration system for ensuring produce suitability for export markets.

Historical fact

The writers of snapSales wrote many of the above standards. We also designed the market declaration system for the NZ Pipfruit industry and MPI in 2012.

Heritage

snapSales is the third major version of the software platform built by Computer Solution Engineering for managing produce sales. Earlier versions of snapSales have been supporting domestic and export sales since 2003 and have handled over a quarter of a million tonnes of produce during that time!

snapSales combines the latest web technologies with decades of experience building software for the produce industry (orchards, cropping, packing, coolstores, and sales).

The snapSales team work with clients in the produce industry every day. We are familiar with many of the operational issues you might encounter and have the ability to customise snapSales to your specific needs.

Capacity

Powered by the Microsoft Azure cloud service, snapSales can handle very large volumes of transactions and be scaled up (or down) within minutes to match your needs.

Please note: this documentation is a work-in-progress. There are more features in snapSales than we've have had a chance to document. Please check back regularly and let us know if there is a particular topic that needs attention.
