Simplifying Inventory and Invoice Management in Small Business Retail

S

Effective retail management relies on flexible software. At Tower Systems, we focus on making daily tasks straightforward and efficient.

Here are three ways our system streamlines inventory workflows for specialty retailers like garden centres, bookshops, music shops, jewellers, toy shops, farm supply businesses and more.

Flexible Supplier Stock Imports

Loading supplier files should be a simple process. Our system allows you to import stock data with high levels of flexibility.

When you load a file for the first time, you map the information to specific columns. The software remembers these settings for that supplier. Future imports are then much faster.

You also maintain full control over your data. You can choose to overwrite existing descriptions or keep your current system data. This ensures your local customisations remain intact while updating costs or retail prices.

Managing Negative Stock

Retail is fast-paced. Occasionally, you may sell an item before the arrival paperwork is finalised.

Our system allows you to sell products into a negative balance. When you eventually receive the invoice, the software automatically adjusts the stock levels.

To help with visibility, you can set warning levels. If an item runs into the negative, a notification appears on the screen. This keeps your team informed without halting a sale.

Easy Invoice Discounts

Applying discounts to incoming invoices is a common requirement. We have made this process simple within the invoice arrival screen.

If a supplier provides a flat discount on an order, you can apply it to the entire invoice at once. The software automatically distributes the discount across all items. This ensures your cost prices and margins are accurately reflected across your entire inventory.

Getting Started

We aim to make your transition to better software as smooth as possible. If you are ready to move forward, the process begins with a simple checklist of next steps.

Our team is here to support your business with demonstrations and clear guidance. Reach out if you have further questions about how these features can work for your store.

We understand installing and learning new software can feel stressful. We do our best to help you navigate this efficiently, and enjoyably.
