A system designed for convenience
R3 Online is clear, concise and is built for convenience. The database is held centrally, which means it can be accessed in multiple locations but the integrity of the data is maintained. Because the application is hosted externally, the data is secure and backed-up in case of an emergency.
Multi-Location Access
Multi-location access to information leading to improved operational activities.
Off Site Data Hosting
Off site data hosting providing security and disaster-recovery, ensuring data is always safe and secure!
A system designed for ease-of-use
R3 Online is easy to use and understand resulting in more confident staff and more time available to spend on other tasks. The interface is intuitive, which means users of any technical ability can learn the system.
Streamlining Data Input
Streamlining data input and removing potential human error by implementing an intuitive and easy-to-learn system.
Dummy system for training purposes
Training time greatly reduced with the addition of a dummy training system. No ‘live’ data is affected therefore confidential and important information is kept secure.
AIMS
The AIMS addition to R3-Online enhances the system in several key ways:
1. Robust, easy to use, handheld barcode scanning capability.
2. New batch processing direct from the loading bay.
3. Point and shoot product status updates: Received, Tested, In Stock.
4. Point of Sale support.
A system designed for smoother administration
R3 Online simplifies the process of administration for all users. Whether a van driver is printing delivery sheets or a store operator is inputting customer information, all administration is handled through the system, which reduces manual paperwork and waste.
Take the time out of arduous administrative tasks
1. Customer thank you letters
2. Invoice management
3. Donor Query form
4. Van Collection and Delivery Information including special instructions
5. Customer Search
6. Refund functionality
7. Stock management
In addition, the system enables all donor letters and invoices to be emailed.
Role-based functionality
Due to the nature of some confidential data and advanced functionality in some sections, role-based navigation is applied therefore users can only use functionality applicable to them.
A system designed to produce results
R3 Online has a sophisticated reporting function, currently producing 11 reports with the opportunity to build upon this. Not only are these reports based on collection and delivery information, but there is also invaluable reporting inline with government legislation. A full list of available reports can be found below.
Report Generation
Intelligent reporting reduces the time needed to produce reports and provides management information on-demand and at the click of a button.
Reports include:
- Driver Collection/Delivery Sheets
- Sales Summary
- Items Sold by Category
- Van Usage/Capacity Comparison
- Items Collected by Category
- Vehicle Tracking
- Donators List
- Items Sold by Time Span & Location
- Items Delivered/Collected by Postcode
- Items Collected by Time and Location
- Scrap Yard Report
- WEEE Reporting
Tracking of electrical items in conjunction with new government legislation

We have reduced costs, and the time involved in administering and reporting on the collection and delivery process has greatly reduced. I estimate that we are saving approximately 1 ½ hours a day on manual input, which adds up to almost a full working week saved per month.
