POS software for Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse businesses

P

Not all retail requirements are the same. Different types of retailers have different types of needs. In this industrial supplies showroom / warehouse situation, needs are different. We are grateful to serve a range of businesses in this space as well as in allied spaces. Features in our POS software these businesses rely on include:

  • Quote and Invoice Management
  • Account Management (pricing profiles etc)
  • Simple POS
  • Stock Ordering (and Customer Order Management)
  • Repairs and Jobs
  • Pack and Kit Management
  • Sell by Fractions
  • Serial Number Tracking
  • Accounting Integration
  • Website Integration: Shopify, Big Commerce, Woo Commerce and Magento.
  • Xero integration.
  • Customer delivery support and integration.

We got into this POS allied area when approached by businesses that started out preparing invoices in Xero. They were  looking to implement product ordering, better invoicing, pick slips and customer management. However, they were not looking to go to the level of using a full ERP system with full job tracking and process management. Such systems come at a considerable dollar and labour cost. They wanted a solution that served their needs and was within their budget.

We found from working with some of these businesses that our POS software did serve their needs. That’s how we got into the Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse POS software space.

We recently released enhanced facilities in the Quote and Invoice Management area of the software.

  • New Facility: We are excited to introduce a new capability within our Quote & Invoice Management system that allows users to reserve items from their inventory even if they have not been formally sold. This ensures that stock levels are accurately reflected, preventing overselling.
  • Proforma Invoice Status: A new interim status, “Proforma Invoice,” has been added to our Quotes & Invoice management. This status acts as an accepted quote that has not yet been processed as an invoice but has already reduced the available stock quantity by moving it to a new “Reserved Quantity.” This significant update allows you to issue proforma invoices to customers without making the reserved stock visible on your website or in-store.
  • We have enhanced the Quote & Invoice Management system to support the acceptance of deposits and progression payments for Proforma Invoices. This feature facilitates flexible payment options for your customers and streamlined financial management for your business.

These are some of the recent changes delivered in our POS software that serve this Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse  space.
