  Check Writing

If you can write a check you can operate Easy-Farm.  Features like EasyFind (a search-as-you-type function) gives you the power to quickly input your entries.  This search feature works in vendor fields, memo fields, and even account name/number fields.  Don't like account numbers you say? Turn them off!

Your checkbook balance is always available so that you know right where you stand while you are entering checks and deposits.
Vendors can be setup with preset amounts for regular monthly payments.  When you write a check to that vendor the amount and/or memo is filled in automatically.  A pick list is also available for all vendors.

The check number will increment automatically.  You can even use the + or - keys to change the check number.  Same with the date. 

Tracking quantities with Easy-Farm is a snap.  Would you like to record the number of bushels, gallons, pounds, tons, etc. of a particular item you purchased?  Not a problem with Easy-Farm.  You can even get a report totalling the quantities purchased for a specific time frame.

Want to balance your checkbook?  Not a problem - it only takes a few minutes.

   
  Other Transactions

One of the most difficult areas of any accounting program is learning how to input the data, what goes where, and how it reflects on the reports. We make it easy.

Single entry is the key. 

If you are looking for a debit/credit system this isn't it!  We take a single-entry approach to a double entry world.  You input a single entry and Easy-Farm takes care of the rest.  No worries!  Why not make the computer begin to pay for itself?

You can purchase items like seed, feed, or chemicals - expense them and put them on inventory in one entry.

Transferring money is a snap!  Make one entry - Easy-Farm transfers the money and takes care of the rest. 

Payment on a loan?  No problem.  Record the principal and interest and Easy-Farm reduces the balance of the loan.  One step.
 

 No closing months or posting transactions.  Everything is done real-time!
   
Where would you like to be today?  Out making money or sitting behind the computer?

"The reports in Easy-Farm are flexible and sophisticated!"

  Inventory

Whether it's crops, livestock, machinery, fuel, seed, or inventory item, you can track it simply and easily in Easy-Farm.
   
The inventory module allows you to run beginning and ending balances for both dollars and quantities.  You can easily adjust inventory when necessary.  When you lose livestock through death or need to adjust a grain bin to zero, the entries are quick and painless.
   
  Production & Sales

Easy-Farm has unmatched record keeping capabilities when it comes to livestock production and sales.

For your crops, livestock, and


dairy enterprises the production and sales module keeps your records up to snuff.
   
  Payroll
   
The Payroll module, available in the Plus and Pro versions, makes paydays much easier.  Some of the features of this module are:

  • Links to expense and liability files
  • Print paychecks with or without a voucher
  • Calculates Federal, State, FICA, and Medicare withholdings
  • Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual reports
  • Print W-2's, 943


  Depreciation

When it comes time to depreciate your equipment, again, Easy-Farm has it covered.  With a complete depreciation module your balance sheet is always up-to-date with accurate costs and market values for all of your assets.


Each depreciable asset can be depreciated using one of three methods - 1) Declining Balance, 2) Declining Balance with Straight Line, or 3) Straight Line.  MACRS percent can be set to 150% or 200%.

When you depreciate an asset the depreciation schedule is shown immediately.  Each of the three methods (listed above) are shown for a side by side comparison.  The schedule is shown for the entire duration of the assets life.

  Enterprising

So, what is your cost of production for wheat?  How much did you spend in repairs on your combine last year?  Did you make or lose money on corn?  Are your feeder cattle costing you more this year than last?

These are just a few questions that you may be asking yourself.  Easy-Farm has a simple yet powerful enterprising module that will answer these questions and more.  By enterprising your entries at the time that you write a check, make a deposit, or enter a transaction, you can have accurate, up to the minute answers to these types of questions.

For every entry that you make you can allocate that specific expense (or income) to any enterprise right on the fly.  An enterprise could be a crop, livestock, an implement, or even a building.

  FINPACK Integration

Vertical Solutions has developed, in conjunction with the University of Minnesota Ag Extension Service, an import/export function to allow data transfer from Easy-Farm to FINPACK.

FINPACK, the world's most powerful farm/ranch financial analysis tool, is used across the nation and in many other countries. FINPACK is used to help farmers and ranchers analyze the financial stability of their operation, perform long-range planning, and produce cash flow projections.

Now instead of consuming many hours of data entry, you will be able to begin a complete analysis of a farm or ranch in seconds.
