Bahawalnagar, Punjab · Custom software company, built from Islamabad
Software House in Bahawalnagar for Agri-Input Dealers, Arhtis and Traders
For seed, fertiliser and pesticide dealers, commission agents and traders who sell on credit until harvest and chase payments from a khata: one system for stock, farmer accounts, recoveries and cash.
Timeline Digital is a custom software development company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Islamabad. We build credit ledger, stock and recovery systems for Bahawalnagar agri-input dealers, commission agents and traders, delivered remotely from our Islamabad headquarters. Before you commit to the full project, we build 2 to 3 of your key modules as a free pilot for your team to test.
Why businesses in Bahawalnagar build custom software
Bahawalnagar is in southern Punjab, east of Bahawalpur and close to the Indian border. The businesses this page is written for share one money cycle: cash goes out early in the season and comes back after harvest. An input dealer sells seed, fertiliser and sprays on credit. A commission agent advances money and settles when the produce is sold. A trader carries customer balances for months. When those balances live in a khata and on WhatsApp, recoveries slip and nobody is quite sure what a farmer owes. A custom system keeps each account, rate, due date and payment in one place, so the owner knows what should come back and when.
Software we build for Bahawalnagar businesses
Seasonal farmer credit ledger for input dealers
Each farmer's account shows what was taken, at what rate, on which date and what has been paid since. We build a credit ledger where every credit sale carries its due date, so the dealer sees what falls due at harvest and can set a limit for each farmer. Statements print in Urdu or English, and reminders can go by SMS as payments fall due.
Harvest recovery app for field staff
When recoveries start, staff visit farmers in villages where the signal is weak. A Flutter app for Android shows each farmer's balance, records cash or bank payments and photographs the receipt, working offline and syncing on return. The office sees which accounts were visited, how much was collected and which balances still need a follow-up call.
Arhti accounts: advances, sales and settlements
A commission agent's books combine advances to farmers, produce received, sales to buyers, commission and charges. We build a ledger where each consignment is entered once, sales are matched to buyers, deductions follow your own rules and the farmer's settlement is worked out by the system, with a clear statement for both sides of the deal.
Batch and expiry stock for seed and sprays
Seed and pesticide stock comes with batches, expiry dates and company schemes. The stock module records purchases by batch, warns before items expire, tracks scheme claims against each supplier and shows slow-moving products before the season turns. Barcode scanning can be added at the counter where your products carry codes.

Why work with Timeline Digital from Bahawalnagar
Reports that follow the crop calendar
Credit, stock and recoveries in this trade peak at different points in the year. During planning we ask about your busiest weeks, so the dues, stock and collection reports are built around the season rather than a plain calendar month.
Urdu statements farmers can read
A farmer who can read his own statement is less likely to dispute it. Statements, receipts and reminders can be printed or sent in Urdu, while the accounts side stays in English if your accountant prefers it that way.
Offline at the counter and in the village
The counter keeps billing through power cuts, and the recovery app keeps recording where there is no signal. Everything syncs later without duplicate entries, because each record carries its own unique ID from the moment it is created.
Serving Bahawalnagar from Islamabad
We have one office, in G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, and work with Bahawalnagar clients remotely by video call, screen sharing and WhatsApp. Your staff test the pilot at their own counter, and travel to your shop or godown happens only if it is agreed in the contract.
- Our only office is G-11 Markaz, Islamabad; Bahawalnagar is served remotely
- Free pilot: 2 to 3 key modules as working software, before you commit
- Urdu farmer statements and receipts
- Offline recovery app for field staff
What a custom system could do for Bahawalnagar businesses
Example workflows for common types of business. They show what a system can do; they are not client case studies.
Seed and fertiliser dealer
A seed and fertiliser dealer could record every credit sale against the farmer's account with a due date, and see at a glance what should be recovered after harvest.
Commission agent (arhti)
An arhti could enter consignments, buyer sales, commission and deductions once, and print each farmer's settlement statement from that same entry.
Farm machinery and spare parts dealer
A spare parts dealer could track part numbers by shelf and supplier, bill at the counter with barcode scanning and keep workshop customers' credit in the same system.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need to come to Islamabad, or can you work with our business in Bahawalnagar?
You do not need to travel. Our only office is in G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, and we serve Bahawalnagar businesses remotely from there: video calls to understand your trade, screen sharing to review each screen, and WhatsApp for questions during office hours. No member of our staff works out of Bahawalnagar. If an on-site visit is needed, for example to set up counters or train recovery staff, it is agreed in the contract.
Which modules would a Bahawalnagar input dealer test in the free pilot?
Before you agree to the full build, we develop 2 to 3 of your most important modules as working software without charge. Most input dealers choose the farmer credit ledger, counter billing with stock, and the harvest dues report. An arhti might test consignment entry and farmer settlement instead. Your own staff use it with real accounts, and the full build begins only after you approve the pilot.
Can we move our old khata balances into the new system?
Yes. Before go-live, each farmer's and customer's opening balance is entered or imported, with the date and any open credit sales you have on record. Where the records are in Excel, we import them directly. Where they are in a register, we agree a simple entry format with your staff. The owner checks the totals against the khata before the new system becomes the official record.
Can farmers get SMS or WhatsApp reminders before payment is due?
Yes. You decide when reminders go out, for example a week before the agreed harvest date and again after it, and what they say. Each message shows the balance and can include a link to a short statement. Reminders stop automatically once the account is cleared, and every message is logged, so staff know who has already been contacted this season.
Can we set a credit limit for each farmer and stop sales above it?
Yes. Each account can carry a credit limit and a due date rule. When a sale would take a farmer over the limit, the counter shows a warning or blocks the sale, depending on the setting you choose. The owner or manager can approve an exception with their own login, and that approval is recorded, so exceptions can be reviewed at the end of the season.
