The box carries board, dimensions, die and colour count on its sheet.

Packaging and boxes
From quote to delivery for packaging and boxes
Cost per box depends on board, die and colour count. Without a grid, every quote is a negotiation with yourself.
What changes
Unit price comes from the grid, per board type.
Die cutting and gluing are tracked stages.
Your stages, ready configured
The account starts with these production stages. Change them any time from Settings.

Every stage records who worked on it, and when.
What it looks like on the shop floor
The operator interface is not the manager’s. A worker does not see the whole company — they see their own queue and two buttons.
A tablet at the press and one at die-cutting and gluing. The operator signs in with a PIN and sees only the jobs that have reached them, with the die, the board and the run length. Rush jobs are clearly flagged.
A tablet in the workshop, a PIN for each person
You do not need a computer at every station. A cheap tablet on the wall, next to the machine, is enough.
- The operator signs in with a four-digit PIN — no email, no password typed with dirty hands.
- They see only the jobs that reached their stage. Nobody has to tell them what is next.
- Two buttons: “In progress” when they start, “Done” when they finish.
- The job moves to the next stage on its own and appears in the next person’s list.
- The system records who worked and at what time — no handwritten timesheet.
Order status, live
On an order for 5,000 boxes you can see printing is done, die-cutting is in progress and gluing is next. A customer who needs them for a launch gets a date, not a hope.
A concrete example
5,000 boxes for a cosmetics maker. The die already exists, you change the run, and the unit price drops automatically through the volume discount.

Four things you will notice immediately
- A box is defined once — die, board, dimensions, print — and any reorder starts from it.
- Price per thousand comes from your own grid, per board type, so corrugated and duplex stop being confused.
- You can see consumption at each stage, so you know where material is being lost.
- Reordering an old job no longer means digging for the die: it is on the product sheet.
Your customers can see their own orders and invoices
Every customer can be given an account. They sign in at the same address you do and see exactly what concerns them — their orders, the stage each one has reached, the quotes they were sent, and their invoices including anything unpaid.
- They see only their own orders and documents — never another customer’s.
- They can download a quote or an invoice as a PDF instead of calling you for a copy.
- They see the stage each order has reached — the same information you see.
- The account is optional: a customer with no email address stays in the register, simply without access.
What if that customer already has an account with another company?
One email address has exactly one account across the whole platform — that is what makes signing in unambiguous. If the address is already in use by another company, the app tells you so plainly when you save, and you have two options: use a different address for this customer (the contact person who deals with you, for instance), or leave the field empty — the customer stays in your register, with orders and invoices, just without app access. Your data is never visible to the other company.
