EzyWine

Detailed Overview of EzyWine
Liquor license details can be recorded against creditors so that the Register of Purchased Wines report can be automatically generated. Periodic Billing allows for weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, six monthly and yearly billing cycles. The creditor ledger and trial balance reports cater for multiple foreign currencies. Cash, credit card, EFT and cheque payments can be made.

EzyWine fulfills the requirements of the Wine and Brandy Board (Label Integrity Program), Liquor Control Commission, Australian Bureau of Statistics, ATO (Liquor Subsidy, PAYE tax, Grower RPS, Group Certificates, PAYG, WET) and Customs (Fortification).

EzyWine is a powerful tool for contract winemaking facilities. On defining the charging structure (crush, additions, storage, analysis and handling fees), the system will automatically generate a Sales Invoices based on the operations performed on the client's wine, ensuring accuracy and removing the need for double entry.

The Winemaking module will meet all of your grape intake, wine production, bulk despatch and receival, fortification, laboratory analysis and samples despatch requirements. It also directly interfaces with Weighbridge Scales (such as Gedge) and Samplers (such as Maselli), and meets AWBC label integrity program (LIP) and customs (fortification) requirements and also produces valuable data for most vessel temperature control systems.

The Weighbridge Reference module allows you to specify unlimited growers, grower groups, grower deliveries (contracts), fruit carriers and freight rates, regions of origin, sub regions, varieties, variety groups, rate types, payment rates, grower and levy payment terms, levy types, analysis types, crushers, weighbridge bonus schemes and harvest operators.

The Weighbridge Operations module allows you to generate grower contract documentation, book grower deliveries and record grape deliveries. The reports provide extensive flexibility in reporting the progress of a vintage in regards to tonnage and analysis. The reports allow you to easily browse actual deliveries against expected deliveries. The total tonnage and the average analysis can be summarised by grower, variety, variety group, delivery date, region, grower group, crusher and vineyard. Tonnages, payment rates and bonuses can be compared against previous vintages with the average price per tonne also reported.
 
The Cellar Reference module allows you to specify unlimited vessels, vessel groups, vessel types, dip tables, wine batches, wines, wine groups, wine status types, wine allocations, cellar operation types, cellar hands, transfer variance reasons and bulk carriers.

The Cellar Operations module allows you to process crush, press, addition, homogenous blend, transfer, create culture, adjustment and cost allocation cellar operations, bulk receivals and despatches, final vessel allocations and laboratory analysis.

The reports include:
  Wine compositions and costs summarised by vintage, variety and region.
  Grower, vineyard block, crush date, bulk receival date and additives are also displayed.
  Trial Blend report allows you to preview the consequence of performing a cellar work sheet in regards to cost and composition prior to committing the operation.
  Account of Fortification report allows accurate monitoring of spirit usage.
  Blend Audit Trail report clearly highlights what cellar operations were performed in the production of a batch of wine.

The system also supports Barrel Scanners, making barrel handling a breeze!
 
The Grower Payments module will provide you with Grower and Levy Payment Schedules. Growers can be paid by cheque or EFT and those growers that haven't supplied their tax file number (TFN) are automatically taxed at the highest tax rate. Payment adjustments can be made at any time during and after vintage. Grower withholding tax report is also available.

The Planning module allows you to specify planned estimates for wine composition, bulk recievals and despatch, packaging and varietal payment rates. The reports include varietal and wine composition exceptions and planning estimates versus actual sales. The Processing specification options can be utilised to record internal processing procedures and can form part of your ISO accreditation documentation.

The Production Client reports are for wineries that perform contract wine processing and packaging. The reports are professional presented and include Client Dejuicing Details, Additional Services Summary and Pre Bottling Quality Assurance and Tasting Releases.

The Packaging module caters for wineries with packaging lines and those that use external contract bottling facilities. It includes vessel volume depletion, packaging specifications, bill of materials and post bottling analysis. Packaging materials and indirect costs are added. Packaging specifications are easily exported to contract bottlers such as VinPac.

The Packaging Reference module allows you to maintain the packaging line details, stage types, detail types (such as label height), overhead and labour cost types and downtime reasons.
 

The Packaging Operation module allows you to maintain packaging run details, print weekly schedules, and produce a variety of cost reports, as well as downtime summaries, materials wastage and wine composition reports. Overhead costs can be applied as $/Litres, $/Units, $/Run or as a % of the total value of the run. Post bottling analysis can also be recorded.

EzyWine is a powerful tool for contract bottling facilities and wineries
that also do some contract bottling. On defining the charging structure
(including any packaging material fees), the system will automatically
generate a Sales Invoices based on the results of the packaging run,
ensuring accuracy and removing the need for double entry. Wineries that use external bottling companies, such as Vinpac, can email a specification file to the contractor directly.

The Plant Servicing module allows you to record plant items, plant repair activities, spare parts usage, labour costs, equipment inspection results and schedule preventative maintenance operations. This module will assist in reducing breakdowns, increase machine availability, identify high cost plant items and reduce overall maintenance costs. The cost reports can be summarised by cost centres, plant items, plant groups, plant components, spare parts and service task types.

The common tasks to be performed on each plant item can be automatically scheduled on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis. The system notifies you when tanks are next to be performed with overdue tasks highlighted.

Plant structures can be recorded so that the components that make up a structure, with low mean-time-between-failure (MTBF) can be readily highlighted. For example, a bottling line may be defined as a plant item with component plant items such as the washer, filler and labeler. The MTBF is recorded automatically for each plant item and is compared to target estimates.

The Vineyard Management module can be utilised to determine optimal harvest dates, track varietal analysis changes, estimate yields and produce profit/loss statements.

Downloading of data from weather stations for consolidation in EzyWine is a breeze!
 
The Vineyard Reference module allows you to define trellis types, soils, rootstocks, clones, irrigation types, blocks, block groups and operation types (e.g. pruning) being used on your blocks as well as those by growers that supply you with grapes. Vineyard operation types can be grouped as labour expenses, materials and machinery expenses.

The Vineyard Operations module allows you to record operations performed in the vineyard including income derived from selling grapes. The reports summarise expenses such as spraying, pruning, planting, cultivation, harvesting, management fees, tractor repairs and fertilising at both vineyard and block level. A spray diary can easily be produced.

The vineyard report writer allows you to easily customise your own vineyard performance reports and display budget versus actual expenses for any combination of operation types defined. The report writer reports can be summarised at various levels including grower, block, block group, variety, variety group and stage (i.e. producing versus non producing blocks).

The Vineyard Analysis module includes graphs and analysis statistics such as the total number of analysis entries, first, last, lowest, highest and average value for each analysis recorded. Critical analysis can be easily highlighted.
