PrintStream is the only integrated Business Management System for the Printing, Direct Mail and Fulfillment industries.

The first and most important task of a direct mail house is the initial project estimating and order entry procedures. In many organizations, just the project estimating process can take numerous hours away from the more important task of identifying new business, or conversely, closing the business and writing the order. In an environment where every minute counts, you need a solution that captures the business-critical information once, and then allows you to re-use it many times throughout the organization. Streamline Solutions Estimating/Order Entry Module, a component of the Direct Mail Management System created exclusively for mail houses and direct mail firms, enables you do just that. A tightly integrated product, the Estimating / Order Entry Module combines robust user definable features with automatic re-use of information to ensure that after initial entry, information is stored, accessed, retrieved and organized in the right format you need at the right time.

Data Integrity from the Source

Since accuracy is critical in the mail order business, Streamline allows users to estimate postage, versions, drops and packages. In addition, Streamline allows comparison of estimated costs versus pricing derived from other (perhaps competitive) price lists. And since production needs to be scheduled at the time of estimate approval, Streamlines' integrated order entry and production scheduling module enables seamless and transparent action upon approval of the estimate. As with all of Streamlines products, the billing is also integrated for complete pass-through of information, ensuring accuracy and integrity of data.

Flexibility for the User

Of course, the information must be entered in a format that is most conducive to your business's language. For that reason, Streamline Solutions software provides user-defined setup and scripting. And because similar information is reused numerous times, Streamline allows for cloning and reuse of the same information, eliminating unnecessary re-entry and freeing your people to focus on higher value tasks.

Features include:

• User Defined Set up & Scripting of Processes

• Estimates for Versions, Drops, Packages and Postage

• Comparison of Estimated Costs Versus Other Pricing

• Automatic Scheduling Based on Production Times in Estimate

• Seamless Integration with All Other Modules.
