Instead of AgriNous

Running every sale through AgriNous? Own your stock agency system.

We build your version around how your agency books, sells and settles. We bring your AgriNous clients and sale history across, set your commission and yard dues, and run it for you.

AgriNous publishes no price for agencies. You book a walkthrough and are quoted, and the quote sets what every sale day costs you to process.

The AgriNous bill

What an agency pays for, sale by sale

AgriNous runs the sale and the paperwork after it. What you are paying for is mostly the screens over your own sale records.

request_quote

A price you cannot see

There is no public price for agencies. You book a walkthrough, you get a quote, and you compare it with nothing.

gavel

Sale day on their system

Booking, drafting, resulting and printing all run through their screens. When their system is slow on sale day, so is your yard.

receipt_long

Account sales you do not control

The layout of the account sale and the buyer invoice is theirs. Changing a line means a support ticket, not a decision.

query_stats

Reports someone else chose

You get the reports on the menu. Which vendors have not booked this season, or which buyers pay best for heavy steers, is your own spreadsheet.

account_tree

Accounting through their link

Account sales and buyer invoices reach Xero through their connection, posted their way.

lock

Your clients in their platform

Client lists and sale reports come out as exports, one report at a time, in the columns they chose.

Your own stock agency system

Bookings, sale day, settlement and the rules in one place

BOOKING

Every mob booked with its NVD

Consignments go into the sale with the vendor, PIC, head and description, and the declaration chased until it is in.

  • check Whose NVDs are still missing for the next sale is the first thing you see
  • check A note to each vendor still owing an NVD, drafted for the agent to send
  • check Any treatment inside its withholding period flagged on the catalogue
  • check Vendors who sold with you this time last year and have not booked

SALE DAY

Results in, sale closed the same day

Each lot resulted by the kilo or by the head, with the buyer and where the stock is going.

  • check Account sales for every vendor and invoices for every buyer, written in one step
  • check Commission, yard dues and transaction levies worked out lot by lot
  • check A market report by category with the change on the last sale, ready for clients
  • check A warning the moment a lot is sold to a buyer who is on stop

MONEY

Vendors paid on time, buyers chased early

Every account sale has a settlement day and every buyer invoice a due date.

  • check Vendor proceeds past settlement day flagged until they are paid
  • check Buyers by age of debt, against their credit limit and their insurance cover
  • check Commission by agent and each agent's share, for any period
  • check Levies held by month and species for the return, with the month still to lodge

RULES

Transfers and declarations watched for you

Each rule is written down with the government page it comes from.

  • check NLIS transfers off the agent code within two days, overdue ones first
  • check NAIT movements within 48 hours for paddock and online sales in New Zealand
  • check The NVD on file, sent with stock to slaughter and to other buyers within seven days
  • check The $5 a head cattle levy and the sheep and lamb levies on every account sale

Switching

How to switch from AgriNous

A move usually involves exporting your client and sale records, testing the import, checking the results and running both systems side by side before you switch.

  1. 1

    Export your records

    Export your client list from the AgriNous Business Portal and your sale lots from Sale Reports, both as CSV. These are the records the migration brings across for client and sale history. Account sales already issued are not part of this import. They stay in AgriNous and Xero, so make sure your team knows where to find them during the change.

  2. 2

    Test the import first

    Have the import run as a test before applying it. The test changes nothing, so you can check the proposed move without altering your records. Once you are comfortable with the results, apply the import to load your clients and sale history into the new database. If someone else is setting it up, ask them to show you the test results before they apply it.

  3. 3

    Check the import results

    Review the test results for anything the import flags before loading records for real. Check that clients are matched by name or PIC, and sale lots by sale and lot number. Resolve anything that looks wrong with the source records or agreed mapping, then repeat the test. The import can be run again without creating duplicates, because matched records are updated.

  4. 4

    Run both systems side by side

    Keep AgriNous and the new system running side by side for a short period. Use the new database for the sale history questions and checks you still run in AgriNous, and compare the records and results with your team. Keep AgriNous available for live work while you confirm the new system has the information and rules your agency needs.

  5. 5

    Switch off AgriNous

    After your team is satisfied with the records and the way the new system handles your work, make it your working record and stop entering live work into AgriNous. Keep access to AgriNous and Xero for account sales already issued. Agree with your team when to stop using AgriNous, so everyone knows where to enter new work.

Where the real effort goes

Most of the effort is usually in mapping your own fields and agency rules, then deciding how much sale history to bring across. The import covers clients and sale lots, while account sales already issued stay in AgriNous and Xero. If you have Enterprise DNA install and run the system, they handle the migration work as part of the setup.

Questions

Instead of AgriNous, answered

What does AgriNous cost? expand_more

AgriNous does not publish a price for agencies. Its site asks you to book a walkthrough, and the price is quoted. The free version has no licence fee. Enterprise DNA agrees one setup fee, then a retainer, to build and run your version.

Can it record NLIS and NAIT transfers? expand_more

It tracks every transfer against its deadline and records when it was done. The transfer itself is still made in the NLIS or NAIT database. When Enterprise DNA builds your version, we can connect it so transfers go through from the same place, where your agency is set up for that access.

Can we bring our AgriNous history across? expand_more

Yes. AgriNous exports your client list from the Business Portal and your sale lots from Sale Reports as spreadsheets. A test run comes first and changes nothing, and bringing the same file in again updates the records instead of doubling them. Account sales already issued stay where they were written, in AgriNous and your accounts.

What about scanning tags at the yards? expand_more

The free version works at the lot, not the single animal, so tag scanning stays with the saleyard and the NLIS database. If your agency scans its own tags, that connection is part of the version Enterprise DNA builds for you.

Are the levy rates and transfer rules right for us? expand_more

Each rule is written down with its government source: the NSW two-day transfer rule, the NAIT 48 hours, the NVD copies, and the cattle, sheep and lamb transaction levies. It is a check on your records, not legal advice. If your state sets a different time, it is one setting, changed with its source.

Bring last week's sale and an account sale to Sam

Spend 30 minutes with Sam. Bring one sale's results, one account sale and a rough count of head you sell a year. We will run a sale through the demo, and show what your own version needs.
