Module

Financial

Not an export to someone else's accounting package. A financial module built around the number a hog operation runs on — cost per pig — with feed and kill sheets posting to the lot automatically, bills that post themselves, vendor payments and customer invoices, a cash-commitments view, and a scanner that reads a receipt off a photo. Included with Grow-Finish.

The SwineOps Financial module — Cost per pig, where the money is

What it does

Cost per pig, live

  • A dashboard rebuilt around cost per pig, not bookkeeping counters — and one inventory figure, reconciled
  • Lot-level accounting — a lot's stage follows its barn, and only a market shipment marks it delivered
  • Organization financials as a report sheet, with overhead spread across the farms and months it belongs to
  • Account-level budgets with variance explained, not guessed

Expenses & payables

  • Organization-level expenses outside any batch — insurance, utilities, the truck
  • Recurring expenses — weekly, monthly, or yearly bills that post themselves
  • Vendor payments — the debit side of accounts payable, matched to the bills they settle
  • Cash commitments — everything you owe and when, on one screen
  • Approval-gated purchase orders with a multi-approver quorum and receiving

Receivables

  • Customer invoices and receipts, with a detail page per receivable
  • Posting rules that keep the ledger balanced as invoices are raised and settled
  • A reminder job that emails overdue accounts on the cadence you set

The document scanner

  • Attach a receipt, an invoice, or a photo to any expense; the scanner reads vendor, number, date, total, and tax
  • Classification and routing — a feed invoice goes to feed, a vet bill to vet, an unknown file waits in the inbox for review
  • Vendor memory — the second invoice from the same vendor lands in the right category on its own
  • Metered per document, so the cost of scanning is visible too

Core accounting

  • Full chart of accounts and journal entries with balanced double-entry posting
  • Feed invoices and kill sheets from Grow-Finish post against the right lot without re-keying
  • Freight from Movement & Compliance lands on the lot it moved

How it works

  1. 1

    Set up accounts

    Stand up your chart of accounts and expense categories once; recurring bills and purchase orders route themselves.

  2. 2

    Let costs flow

    Feed invoices, kill sheets, and freight post to the right lot automatically; scan or forward the rest.

  3. 3

    Watch cost per pig and cash

    Each lot's cost builds in real time; the cash-commitments screen shows what is due and when.

  4. 4

    Close and compare

    Close the lot and compare against budget; the organization P&L accrues overhead against the pigs that carried it.

How it connects

Financial is where every other module lands, and it is included whenever you license Grow-Finish. Feed orders, bin deliveries, and kill sheets post against the originating lot, freight from Movement & Compliance rides on the same lot, and the invoice inbox drops the mill's PDF straight onto the batch. Budget variances, cash commitments, and the PO pipeline show up in the Operations Hub for the CFO.

Financial is the module that turns SwineOps from operational software into something the CFO cares about. Because production, feed, and movement already live in the same system, their costs flow into the ledger against the right lot on their own — so cost per pig is something you watch, not something you reconstruct. The rest of the office work moved in beside it: the bills that arrive every month, the vendors you pay, the customers you invoice, and the pile of receipts that used to wait for month-end.

Frequently asked

Is this a real accounting module or just an export?
A real module — chart of accounts, journals, payables, receivables, and approval-gated purchase orders live in SwineOps. You're not re-keying production data into a separate accounting package.
How does cost flow in without double entry?
Production events and movements post to the lot they belong to automatically, so feed, vet, freight, and kill revenue build cost per pig and margin without anyone entering it twice.
Can it read a receipt off my phone?
Yes. Attach the photo or PDF to an expense and the scanner reads the vendor, number, date, total, and tax, classifies the document, and routes it. Once a vendor has been seen, the next one from them lands in the same category on its own.
What about bills that aren't tied to a batch?
Organization-level expenses cover them — insurance, utilities, equipment — and recurring ones post themselves on their schedule. The organization P&L then spreads that overhead across the farms and months it belongs to.
Do I license Financial separately?
No. Financial comes with the Grow-Finish licence; the two are bundled because the feed and kill data that make cost per pig live are already in Grow-Finish.
Does it replace our lot-level closeout spreadsheet?
That's the point. Lot-level accounting is built in, so the closeout is a report you open, not a spreadsheet you rebuild.
