Solutions / Retail & hospitality
The till, the stockroom and the books, agreeing by default.
One product catalogue behind the counter, the website and the ledger — so a sale is a stock movement and an accounting entry without anybody keying it twice.
Who this is for: Shops, cafés, restaurants and multi-site chains selling in person and online.
What breaks today
The three you will recognise.
Written from what this kind of business actually reports, rather than from a list of features a competitor lacks.
The till and the website hold different stock
Two systems, two counts, and the gap between them is either a disappointed customer or a shelf full of something nobody wants.
Yesterday takes until Thursday to reach the books
A daily export, a spreadsheet and a bookkeeper. By the time the numbers are right they are describing a week you cannot change.
Every site is its own island
Adding a second location means a second set of everything, and a head office view that is assembled by hand.
What changes
Not a promise about your results. A description of the mechanism.
These are things the software does. What they are worth in your business depends on your business, and we would rather say that than quote a percentage nobody can check.
One catalogue, several counters
Point of sale, the online store and stock control read the same products, prices and quantities. A sale at the till moves the same number the website is reading.
A sale is already an accounting entry
Takings, tax and cost of sale post as the transaction happens rather than as a month-end exercise. The books are a view of the trading, not a reconstruction of it.
Locations are a dimension, not a duplicate
Stock, staff and takings carry the site they belong to, so a second shop is a filter on one system rather than a second system.
The chain, end to end
Each step writes to the same records the next step reads. There is no export between them, which is why there is nothing to reconcile afterwards.
