Retail stores
A shop system that keeps up with the counter
For grocery, general stores, cosmetics, stationery and similar shops where the day is a long line of small sales.
How this business works
What makes it hard, and what helps
Speed at the counter
Customers will not wait while you look up a price. Scan or type a few letters and the item is on the bill.
Hundreds of small items
Stock moves in small quantities all day. Every sale reduces it automatically, so the count stays close to the shelf.
Regular customers on credit
Some customers pay at the end of the week. Their balance is kept on their account instead of in your memory.
Cash that must match
Choose the cash or bank account on each sale so the day-end balance can be checked.
In practice
A normal day in a shop
Morning
Check the low-stock list and note what to order.
Through the day
Bill at the counter, give line discounts where allowed, handle returns.
Supplier delivery
Receive goods against the purchase order and stock goes up.
Evening
Review sales for the day and the cash and bank balances.
Month end
Open profit and loss and the customer balances report.
