Take the shop’s stock and drawer off paper.
When you replace paper and Excel in a small shop that still runs on paper or spreadsheets, the till knows the stock and the drawer is no longer counted on the back of a receipt. Every ticket moves the stock, and the drawer is counted when you open and close.
What paper costs you each month
- The till records sales but not stock, so the shelves are counted by eye and reordered too late.
- The drawer is counted on paper at night, and nobody can explain the difference the next morning.
- Returns are refunded from the drawer with no trace of the ticket they came from.
- Regular customers buy on account in a notebook, and their balances drift from what they believe they owe.
- Supplier orders are written from memory, so best sellers are forgotten and slow ones bought again.
A till that knows the stock
- Each ticket takes the goods out of the shop’s stock at once, by scanner, touch screen or scale label.
- The drawer is counted when you open and close. The difference is recorded and the day’s report is frozen.
- A return starts from the ticket number and goes back to the drawer, the card or store credit.
- Regular customers buy on account within their limit, and their balance is the shop’s balance.
- Products under their minimum go on the reorder list, grouped into a draft order per supplier.
