01
Less cutting waste
The cutting plan picks the stock lengths with the least waste and takes offcuts into account.
TIMBER STOCK & MATERIAL PLANNING
Know what you need, what is in stock and what to order
Import the cutting list from your drawing software, reserve the timber for your project and see straight away what still needs ordering. For joinery workshops and prefab builders who want control over their beams and sheet material. Available as a 139 euro per month add-on on top of your subscription.
IMPORT THE TIMBER LIST
From PDF cutting list to material requirement per project
Upload the PDF cutting list of your project. Beamcore reads the cutting lines, checks the quantities and works out how many bars of which stock length you need. You always check the result first; only when you finalise the list does it become the requirement of the project.
- Cutting lines from the PDF with a checksum on quantities and lengths
- Cutting plan across several stock lengths: least waste, fewest bars or prefer stock
- A section you do not stock is cut from the nearest heavier one
- Every version of the timber list is kept
RESERVE & ORDER
Free stock, reservations and shortages in one overview
Beamcore keeps physical stock, reservations per project and free stock strictly apart. Finalising reserves what is in stock straight away; whatever is missing is ready on the order list, grouped by cheapest supplier if you like.
- Per project: issued, reserved, on order and still to order
- Automatic purchase proposal on working days for projects starting soon
- Suppliers with price lists per item, also imported from Excel or PDF
- Read delivery notes and order confirmations and process them in one click
WAREHOUSE
Locations, offcuts and stock value
Divide your hall into locations, move stock and count per location. When issuing to production you get a pick list. Usable offcuts are reported back and automatically included in the cutting plan of the next project.
- Hall, rack and bin, with a pick list per issue
- Offcuts as separate stock, off by default and switched on per company
- Stock value by FIFO using the recorded purchase price
- Overview of items that drop below their minimum stock
STOCK MANAGEMENT 2.0
Timber, sheet material, insulation and hardware in one system
All articles are in one system, with article numbers, EAN code and pack contents. Every stock movement has a reason: add, write off, damaged, issue to or return from a project and return to the supplier. You enter quantities in pieces, boxes or packs.
- Sheet offcuts per size, separate from whole sheets
- Opened packs and boxes kept apart, for example 8 closed boxes and 50 pieces from opened boxes
- Insulation per project in m², converted to whole packs
- An attachment with a movement if you want
DOCUMENTS AND PRICE RULES
Certificates with the article, sale prices by fixed rules
Keep certificates, declarations of performance, product sheets and safety data sheets with the article, with a validity date. Thirty days before expiry you get a warning. Sale prices follow fixed rules, so you pick an article with the right price straight away in quote and invoice lines.
- Order: client agreement, fixed sale price, article margin, subcategory, category and default margin
- Markup or gross margin, with minimum margin and rounding
- Articles available directly in quotes and invoices
SCANNING AND TIMBER LIST VERSIONS
Scan on issue and receipt, and see the changes between timber lists at once
Give an item one or more barcodes: EAN-13, EAN-8, Code128 or QR. In the app you scan when issuing to a project, which books off the reservation, or when receiving a delivery against an open order. A scan is only ever booked once.
- With a new timber list version you see per item, cutting line and element what is new, removed or changed
- You immediately see the effects: release a reservation, a new shortage or possibly too much ordered
- When you finalise, you release reservations and create a draft order for the shortages
- Reports on consumption per month, timber species and cross-section, planned versus issued per project, waste and turnover, with export to Excel
- Suppliers confirm orders and upload delivery notes and certificates via a secret link
PURCHASE INVOICES
Purchase invoices next to the order and the delivery note
On the Purchase invoices page, Beamcore compares each invoice with the order and the quantities received on the delivery notes: quantities, price and amount. You see whether it matches or deviates and approve or reject it. Approving with deviations requires an explanation.
- Your own tolerances, and a duplicate invoice number is refused
- Payment status open, partly paid or paid, with a To be paid tile
- With the Accounting integration add-on, an approved invoice goes to your accounting software and the payment status comes back every hour
- Incoming Peppol invoices automatically become a draft purchase invoice
WHY IT WORKS
Control over your timber without a spreadsheet
02
Always check first
Nothing from a PDF or delivery note touches your stock until you confirm it.
03
Order in time
Shortages of projects starting soon end up on the order list automatically.
04
Material costs per project
Issued, reserved and ordered next to the material budget of the project.

Yes. Sheets such as OSB or plywood are ordinary stock items with type, thickness, width and length. They have their own table below the beams.
