Purpose:  The industry leader, Scrap Metal Manager (SMM), gives scrap metal recyclers (or any materials recyclers) a chance to comply with new state regulations and computerize their recycling collection and settlement processes. SMM keeps track of Scrap Sellers, Scrap  Purchasers, Scrap Inventory Balances, and Collection Box Placements.   SMM can be configured for net or tare and laden weights as well as documenting piece counts.  SMM can also manage Goods and Service Taxes (GST) for both purchasing and selling recycling materials.  SMM is touch screen enabled and is available in a single user or optional multi-user network computer configuration with advanced functionality that include a scale-house interface.  SMM also has optional check print capabilities and features that exports daily transactions into XML or CSV files.  SMM works with States like Arkansas, Florida, Ohio (ODPS), Texas (TXDPS), and Alabama who require XML or CSV file reporting including those using LeadsOnLine, TXDPS, RIMN, MOCIC, ROCIC, BWI, WSIN, NESPIN, & MAGLOCLEN.

The SMM personal version without optional modules is FREE.  The SMM Scanning/Export options listed below are free to evaluate for a 90 day period starting at the time of SMM installation.   We also have a SMM professional version which is a network enabled thus allowing your users and office staff to share a central database (Access or a SQL Server option) making record look up much easier.
