Daily business problems

Where manual records usually break down

  • Themes, colours and pack sizes create many product options that are easy to mix up.
  • Seasonal stock can become dead stock when demand is not reviewed early.
  • Event and corporate orders may require quotations, deposits and later balance payments.

Prepare the trial

Set up the test with accurate starting data

A useful trial should reproduce a real day in the business, not a demonstration catalogue that hides the difficult parts.

01

Catalogue and selling rules

List the product categories and the exact size, colour, brand, model or style options that must remain separate in stock.

02

Opening stock and suppliers

Use a recent stock count and current supplier balances. Avoid importing estimated quantities that will immediately weaken the reports.

03

Customers and pricing

Prepare the regular customer accounts and decide when staff should use a quotation, immediate sale, deposit or customer balance.

04

Staff access and closing reports

Create separate staff users, assign only the required permissions and agree on the reports used to close or hand over each day.

Fit boundary

FortyPOS manages products, quotations, balances and reports. It does not provide event planning, rental-asset scheduling or delivery logistics.
