About Rental Portal

Randr's Second Derivative (2D) is a very flexible web based ERP system that has been design to handle multiple transaction types individually or concurrently for complex transactions. Equipment Rental, Brokerage, Warranty, Work Order and numerous billing schemes and have been available on a semi-custom basis. Rental Portal is the first of three industry specific version of 2D to be release to Sourceforge. It includes the Financial Portal which is used for all financial and accounting transactions and the Information Portal which provides real time flexible reporting and historical reporting.

  • Contract includes:
    1. Sales and Service Items
    2. Rental items (Serialized and non serialized)
    3. Work Orders (billable and non billable to customer)
    4. Delivery and Scheduling

Financial Portal

Financial Portal is integrated into Rental Portal and provides the financial and accounting applications. It gives companies the ability to control and track their financial flow. Designed to be flexible and easy-to-use, it includes:

  • Accounts Receivable
  • Accounts Payable
  • General Ledger
  • Reconciliation for:
    1. Banks and Credit Cards
    2. Commissions
    3. Warranty

 

Information Portal

Information Portal is integrated into Rental Portal. It provides much of the flexible reporting that a company needs. Including an activity summary dashboard, operational metrics and flexible historical reporting with date ranges.

What we missed

There are a few things we were not able to get in the first release, but will get in as quickly as we can.

  • There are two tables in Financial Portal that we do not have the maintenance for so they will have to be populated manually. In the administration manual we have a section in the front that explains what to do. We are working to have this done shortly.
  • Integration with the Order Portal for processing web orders into Rental Portal as quotes. We are working on that as well.
  • Purchasing, please see the Rental Portal operations manual for how to handle purchase orders and receiving inventory while we work on an improved interface.
  • Additional equipment and availability reports in the Information Portal.
