An importer who calculates profit from the supplier's price alone is fooling himself. Freight, insurance, duties, clearance and exchange differences make up the true cost.
The contract and Incoterms
A trade contract with its delivery term (FOB, CIF and others) defining who bears what, and a proforma invoice linked to it.
The letter of credit
Record every letter of credit with its latest shipment date and expiry date, so you never miss a deadline that costs you acceptance of the documents.
Landed cost
- Including freight, insurance, duties and clearance in the shipment's cost.
- Recording exchange differences between contract and payment.
- Knowing the real profit on every shipment.
Your data stays with you
Bawabetna's program runs on your company's own computers with the records encrypted with you, separate permissions for management, operations and the accountant, and it works without internet. You can import your data from your previous software and try the program free for the first month before subscribing.
Questions?
Which computers does it run on?
The programs run on Windows computers. With several computers, one keeps the office's encrypted vault and the others connect to it over your local network.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Booking, records, invoicing and printing keep working offline. Whatever needs to be sent is sent when the connection returns.
Where are my records kept?
In an encrypted vault on your own computer. Bawabetna does not host your full working records.
Who decides what is shared about a client?
The client. Clients manage their own consent from their own app; a professional never decides on their behalf.
Can I move my data from my current software?
Yes. Client lists and records can be imported from Excel or CSV files, with a preview before importing and the option to undo.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, the first month of every program is free, with all features and no card. Your data is saved on your device during the month; after 30 days without a subscription the program becomes read-only, and your data stays and you carry on as soon as you subscribe.
Which languages does it support?
Every program and this website work in 16 languages: Arabic, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Turkish, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (simplified and traditional). You can switch at any time.
