More about document management

More about purchasing and inventory
With Spruce, you can process and email month-end statements or invoices, saving you time and reducing expenses. Streamline payables by processing invoices faster and more accurately. Plus, the integrated General Ledger has straightforward procedures and customized financial reporting built-in.
More about accounting
Spruce will reduce cost and save time in your delivery process. Drivers can obtain signatures for proof of delivery and take pictures of the materials drop that automatically ties to the sale. Spruce will prevent lost/forgotten orders and provide drivers the information they need to work quickly and effectively. Plus, the delivery status is available to everyone within the system—no need to pick up the phone!
Hardware stores often need to source special items for your customers. With Spruce, you can create POs for special orders as part of the point-of-sale transaction or by copying the customer’s order items into a PO. If the cost changes along the line, everything is updated. Plus, everything is linked with digital document management—from the PO, to the receipt, to the AP invoice, all the way through billing the customer.
Spruce is cloud-based, which means there are no upfront fees and no expensive servers to buy and maintain. Your data is also backed up automatically and hosted offsite for quick retrieval in the event of a natural disaster, fire, or theft. Data is encrypted and backed by firewalls for maximum security, so only you can access it. You’ll rest easy knowing your business is always protected.
Spruce helps you manage your business on the go! Because it’s cloud-based, you can access your business information 24/7/365 from anywhere! If you are in the yard, at a customer location, at home, or on vacation, you can access your system, look at sales history, respond to inquiries, and handle an order on the spot.
