Step By Step
How To Use AWMS, Start To Finish.
Every step written out, with a real screenshot for almost every one. This follows one real example the whole way through: a farmer named Mahavir, and a buyer named KCC.
1
Opening AWMS
- 1Tap the AWMS icon on your phone's home screen to open it.
- 2First time ever? You'll see a screen asking for your firm name and a password. Type your firm name, then a password of at least 4 characters, then the same password again to confirm. Tap
Create Vault. - 3Already set up before? You'll see a simple Unlock screen with just a password box. Type your password and tap
Unlock. - 4Lost your phone or switching devices? The same Unlock screen has a
Restore from backupoption — covered in Section 9 below.
Remember: your password unlocks everything. Write it down somewhere safe — nobody, including AWMS, can recover your data without it.

The Home Screen
- 1After unlocking, you land on Home. At the top it says "Welcome, [your firm name]", with the current financial year shown below it (like
FY 2026-27 · 1 Apr – 31 Mar). - 2Two cards sit in the middle: Roznamcha — Daybook (your daily cash entries) and Selling — Maal Bika (recording sales).
- 3Below that, five smaller buttons: Backup (.enc), Restore file, Byaj Calculator, Password, and Firm (your business details).
- 4At the very bottom of every screen in the app, four tabs stay put: Daybook, Selling, Accounts, Balance. You can jump between them anytime.
The app also shows a small line at the bottom of Home: "Bills and reports are for internal records only — not valid as legal or government documents." Worth knowing before you rely on a printed bill for anything official.

Daybook — Recording Cash In & Out
- 1Tap the Daybook tab at the bottom. You'll see today's date at the top, with arrows to move a day forward or back, and an edit date link if you need to jump further.
- 2Just below the date, two tabs show your cash boxes — for example Galla (physical cash) and your bank account (like ICICI). Tap whichever one this entry belongs to.
- 3You'll see the Opening / बाकी आई balance carried from 1 April, then two columns: IN · जमा on the left, OUT · नाम on the right.
- 4To add money, tap the
+ Add Entrybutton, bottom-right. A panel slides up from the bottom.
- 5First choose IN or OUT at the top of the panel.
- 6Choose the Cash box — Galla (Cash) or your bank.
- 7Tap Account / Party. The list is grouped — Bank/Cash, Farmer, Buyer, and Other (system accounts like Byaj, Daami, Majdoori, Nilaam). Pick the right one.
- 8New person? Tap
+ New Accountright there and add them on the spot — no need to leave this screen. - 9Type the Amount ₹. The date auto-fills to today, but you can change it.
- 10Add a short Note if useful (like "Cash" or "cheque / LIC / expense") — optional.
- 11Tap Save Entry.
Real example: an IN entry of ₹50,000 and an OUT entry of ₹10,000 for a farmer called Mahavir, both against Galla (Cash). The Daybook totals both columns and shows ✓ Cash balanced — IN = OUT + Closing once everything adds up.
4
Selling — Recording A Sale (Maal Bika)
- 1Tap the Selling tab, then
+ Maal Bikato start a new sale. The date auto-fills. - 2Tap Farmer (किसान) and choose who sold the goods. Not listed yet? Tap + Farmer to add them right here.
- 3Under FARMER SIDE, fill in Bags and Pack kg (weight per bag) — AWMS works out the total quintals for you. Add Extra kg if there's any loose weight on top.
- 4Type the Rate ₹/qtl (price per quintal) and Labour ₹ (hamali charged to the farmer). Add an Extra deduction if needed — this is optional.
- 5As you type, a box updates live:
Weight X qtl · Maal ₹Y – Labour Z – Extra W, ending in bold with Farmer gets ₹total.
- 6Scroll to BUYER SIDE. Tap Buyer and choose who's purchasing (or + Buyer to add someone new).
- 7Fill in the buyer's Bags / Pack / Extra and Rate ₹/qtl. If the buyer's weight matches the farmer's, AWMS notes "Buyer weight = Farmer weight · jamadar zaroori nahi" — no extra step needed.
- 8Set Daami % (your commission rate) and Auction % (Nilaam charge) — AWMS calculates the actual Daami ₹ and Auction ₹ automatically. Add Labour ₹ for the buyer's side too.
- 9The result updates live:
Maal ₹X + charges = Buyer owes ₹total.
- 10Selling to more than one buyer from the same lot? Tap
+ Add Buyer / Rate-lineand repeat for each one. - 11Add a Note if you want, then tap
Record Sale.
Real example: Farmer Mahavir — 100 bags, 50kg pack (= 50 qtl), rate ₹2,500/qtl, labour ₹600 → Farmer gets ₹1,24,400. Buyer KCC — same 50 qtl at ₹2,500/qtl, Daami 2.5% (₹3,125), Auction 0.08% (₹100), labour ₹600 → Buyer owes ₹1,28,825.

Bills — Sharing With Farmer & Buyer
- 1After recording a sale, it appears in your Selling Register — tap it to open.
- 2Tap
Farmer Bill (PDF)to generate the farmer's bill — it lists Maal, any deductions like Labour, and the final Farmer Payable amount.
- 3For each buyer on the sale, you'll see their name and amount owed, with
Sale BillandReceive Paymentbuttons next to it. - 4Tap Sale Bill to open the buyer's itemised bill — Maal, Daami (Commission), Auction (Nilaam), Labour, and the Total Amount. It also shows the Payment / Byaj terms — for example, free for the first 10 days, then a rebate if paid on time or a monthly charge after the due date.
- 5On any bill screen, three buttons sit at the bottom: Close, WhatsApp (send it directly), and PDF (save or share the file).
- 6Need to fix something? Tap
Edit Salefrom the same screen to go back and change any detail.

Accounts — Checking Any Party's Ledger
- 1Tap the Accounts tab at the bottom.
- 2Four tabs sit at the top — Farmer, Relative, Buyer, Others. Tap whichever type you want to look at.
- 3Every party is listed with their current balance, tagged LENA (they owe you) or DENA (you owe them).
- 4Tap any name to open their full account — every IN and OUT entry against them, in order, with a running total.
- 5At the top of an account you'll see set opening (to enter a starting balance) and edit (to change their details).
- 6Tap
Account PDFat the bottom to export that one party's statement. - 7Adding someone brand new? Tap
+ New Farmeror+ New Buyerdepending on which tab you're on.
Real example: Mahavir's account shows the ₹50,000 and ₹1,24,400 he's owed (IN), against the ₹10,000 already paid (OUT) — leaving बाकी देना ₹1,64,400 (what the firm still owes him). KCC's account shows the ₹1,28,825 sale bill on the OUT side, with nothing paid yet — बाकी लेना ₹1,28,825 (what's still owed to the firm).

Balance Sheet — Your Overall Position
- 1Tap the Balance tab at the bottom.
- 2Switch between मूल + ब्याज (principal plus interest) and सिर्फ़ मूल (principal only) at the top, depending on what you want to see.
- 3Below that: the financial year and the exact date this snapshot is as of — for example
FY 2026-27 · AS OF 07 Jul 2026. - 4Two columns show every party — Lena (लेना, owed to you) on the left, Dena (देना, you owe) on the right — each with its own total.
- 5Net position (Lena – Dena) is shown at the bottom — the one number that tells you where you stand overall.
- 6Tap
Balance Sheet PDFto export the whole thing.

Byaj Calculator — Interest On Any Account
- 1From Home, tap
Byaj Calculator. - 2Two tabs sit at the top: Account Byaj (calculate on a real account) and Buyer Rebate (check the rebate/late-charge terms shown on a sale bill).
- 3Under Account Byaj, choose Farmer — this calculates byaj in one direction only (byaj सिर्फ लेना — what's owed to you), or Lender — which calculates both directions (लेना + देना — what's owed to you and what you owe them).
- 4Tap Account and pick a real party — AWMS will automatically pull every entry against them. No account yet? Type a Principal ₹ (manual) instead.
- 5Type the Rate %/mo.
- 6Set Byaj is date se and To (settle).
Important: whatever date you set as "Byaj is date se," the system will not pick up any entries before that date at all — they're completely excluded from the calculation, not just set to zero. Choose this date carefully.
- 7AWMS shows the same detailed breakdown as the account-level view — every date the balance changed, how many days, and the byaj for that stretch — ending with Total byaj and Baaki mool (remaining principal).
Real example: account Dalpreet s/o Mahipreet, rate 1.5%/mo, from 1 Apr 2026 to 5 Jul 2026 → Total byaj ₹14,343, with Baaki mool ₹3,20,665 · लेना still outstanding. As always: "Sirf hisaab dikhata hai — koi entry nahi karta" — it only shows the number, it doesn't create any entry.

Backup & Restore
- 1From Home, tap
Backup (.enc). - 2AWMS creates one encrypted file, named with today's date automatically — like
awms-backup-2026-08-22.enc. - 3Move this file somewhere safe — Google Drive, a pen drive, or email it to yourself. Do this regularly.
- 4To bring your data onto a new device, or after reinstalling, tap
Restore file(also available right on the Unlock screen). - 5Choose your
.encbackup file and type the same password you used when you made it. - 6AWMS warns you first — restoring replaces whatever is currently on this device. Confirm only if that's what you want.
- 7Your data comes back exactly as it was on the day of that backup.
AWMS does not sync automatically between devices — each device holds its own data. Moving data between phones always happens through Backup and Restore.
