REPORTS

RentMaster gives you powerful options for reporting and printing rental agreements, orders and quotes list, customers and inventory information.
For reports you can select a single record, a group of records created between specified dates, all records, or select records by applying your custom filters and sort order.

The filtering and sorting features give you an easy way to print the records you want sorted by any field. This is very useful when you for example, want to schedule the orders' delivery/pickup. You can filter the orders to have only the orders for a specific date/time, orders by zip code and as a result you'll have all the orders within a specific area printed together which is useful when you're making a decision about orders' delivery/pickup.

Rental Agreement

RentMaster allows you to print rental contracts/agreements. You can easily customize the default terms & conditions and have your own terms & conditions printed on the agreement.

Invoice

Invoice layout is designed to fit within 2-window envelope so you can simply fold and mail it to the customer. You can add custom text to the end of the printed invoices (thank you message, billing terms, etc.)

Billing Statement

You can generate billing statements for customers using several criteria (all orders, completed orders with balance dues, etc.)

Orders List

Orders list contains information about the order no, starting/ending date/time, customer name and address, and the list of reserved items, providing you with all the necessary information to make decisions about orders' delivery/pickup.

NETWORK SUPPORT & USER MANAGEMENT

RentMaster is a network ready application and has multi-user support feature.
You can configure RentMaster to run on multiple computers within your local network and share the same database. RentMaster doesn't require a special dedicated server to keep your database - any computer in the network can be setup to store your database.

RentMaster gives you an option to setup multiple user accounts. Also, it gives you an option to ask for username/password every time you run the software or run the software in 'Default user mode' in which case it won't ask for username/password and will use the account marked as 'Default user' for user authentication.

You can easily add new users by using the User Manager. When you mark a user account as 'default,' and RentMaster is in 'Default User Mode,' the software won't show the login window and will use the default user information. When the user makes a new quote or a new order, or confirms an order, RentMaster stores the user's name with the order/quote and when it's running in Default User Mode, it'll use the default user information for these purposes.

After adding an inventory item to the order, you can manually adjust the default rental price by clicking on the price cell and entering the new price for that item.
You can also set/change the discount, sales tax and delivery fee.

Order discount may be either as a percentage or as a fixed amount.  Just type the discount in the appropriate field.
RentMaster will automatically do the price calculations every time you add/delete an item to/from the order or modify the price/discount/sales tax/delivery field values. Just move the cursor to another field or click on Tab key, and RentMaster will do the calculations automatically.

You can add more delivery methods or surface types by editing the appropriate sections in the Preferences window (File->Preferences->Additional Information).
Every time you change the delivery dates and times for the order, RentMaster will delete all the inventory items that have been added to the order because some of them may not be available for the new period.

You can access the Payment Information section by clicking on the Payment History button. On the opened window you can add new payment information or view the payment history for the order. Every row contains information about one payment - payment date, payment type, the amount paid and some details about the payment such as check number or credit card numbers.

The Additional Information section mostly contains non-editable information, such as the order date, user name who has entered the order, order confirmation date and the user name who has confirmed the order and finally, the order status information that you can change manually. All the new orders will have Scheduled status, all the confirmed orders will have Confirmed status, and all the completed orders will have Completed status values. You can add additional order status values by editing the appropriate section in Preferences window (File->Preferences->Additional Information).

After receiving back the rented items, you click on Order Received button, and RentMaster will update the inventory and make the returned items available for future reservations.
Obviously, the inventory items with category marked as 'Available for sale' won't be put back in inventory.
