We have developed a variety of products that add value to existing systems. If you are looking for something special, please look at our custom software development services.
We have developed our own business software framework that drastically reduces the development time of business systems allowing us to reduce the cost to you with compromising on required but expensive functionality such as user rights management and reporting.

PEDAL
Our pdf mailer reads any type of document like an invoice or statement and can extract on page text like the account code. Using these values it can split a 500 page statement run into individual pages and email them using its own database of customer email addresses. The included document learning wizard makes adding more document types easy. There is a custom cover email editor for each document type and you can send additional pdf info like your terms of business. Using the SendGrid emailing platform means very robust delivery of email and traceability via a web portal. You are not restricted to standard accounting forms either, any report can be sent as long as each page contains a distinguishable code like the customer account code so you it can be used for weekly back order reports etc. The included scheduler means it just looks for your pdfs in the predefined folder and it will intelligent determine the document type and process it for you, just save as pdf and go.
PolyMando
PolyMando is our web cart sync engine for Accredo. I sends stock info and images, categories and customers and to the Kartris shopping cart. It also collects orders as they are received, prints notifications and imports them into Accredo.
Polychrome Developed Client Projects
Here is a quick very high level list of products we have written so far
PEKA – Attache PRO stock revaluation
A desktop application to revalue stock based on supplied daily price for gold and silver. Using weight and size dimensions the software calculates the current accurate cost to make an item and the corresponding mark ups are applied to establish a n accurate sales price.
eShip for Accredo and Attache PRO
This is the missing link between the NZ Post eShip system and Accredo and Attache PRO. It reads order/invoice data and creates the postal ticket sends it to NZ post to avoid expensive and error prone rekeying of data. The tracking reference is sent back to the invoice and a customisable email is sent to the client with their tracking information.
Sending a package to eShip for an Invoice
Formatting the email that is sent to your client
Fully Equipped
Our tools to read custom data from PDFs and build a database that can be searched by staff. The scanned documents contain values that are read via ocr form their photocopier and added as custom tags to the pdf. The tool we wrote reads these tags to build a database that links back to the original document for warranty claims. Thats some pretty smart tech at play!
Vendor Refill Management
Management and scheduling for staff who visit and manage stock for a wide variety of vendors within Bunnings and Mitre 10. The system manages everything from staff allocation and scheduling, visit report recording and reporting through to monthly invoicing.
Client Portal
The client portal allows customers to view report information on demand in a controlled manner with access only to their specific data.
Visit Reporting
Hand held tablet software is helping to automate the capture of data and upload to a cloud database for remote users. The web backend covers the generation of customer monthly reports and invoices and stores to the Microsoft Azure cloud.
RedBadge Group – Custom Quotations
A front end for Attache BI, this custom quotation system manages specific client needs such as understanding multiples of staff and a range of hours being covered. It then has expanded special pricing to handle automatic surcharges for public holiday cover. Transfer to Attache and Time target for further staff planning round out this system.
Hydraulink Fluid Connectors
We have been working with Hydraulink from the first days of Polychrome, a relationship that now spans over 10 years. During that time we have developed and maintained a number of solutions to help them provide industry leading service.
CBLink
The CBLink system fetches a daily export of data from their PRONTO accounting system and imports it so that nationwide clients can be invoiced at the latest agreed national pricing. The system can then send invoices back to Hydraulink and also push the same data into the local accounting system. CBLink currently talks to ABM, Accredo, Attache PRO, Attache BI and Infusion.
POLink
Going back the other way, we export purchase orders created in the local accounting package and send them via FTP to Hydraulink to reduce on rekeying and improve data reliability which leads to better service – now that’s a win-win.
HydraTag
At its heart, HydraTag is an Android application that scans NFC tags attached to plant and hose equipment. The relevant details are captured on the phone and then synced to a cloud database for web based reporting. Clients can access a web portal to query hose information, set reminders for hose replacements and query details about the actual hose used. A customer can tell the hose technician the hose tag number and rather than drive long distances with the wrong hose, the tech knows the exact techinical specs of the hose installed and can take the correct product with them. This improves customer services whilst minimising down time.
QCLink
A tablet based quality control system that synchronises with the PRONTO accounting system and provides technicians with hose and kit set specification and technical data and photos during QC Inspection. The inspections and readings are stored to provide customers with summary reports while providing an audit trail of the captured QC data.
Schedulers
So many schedulers! We have written many schedulers that automate everyday tasks such as collecting orders from websites, emailing clients when a shipment is made, importing stock transactions coming from other systems o sending summary reports to clients. Many of the systems we have developed have a scheduler.
