One commercial record

Sales, stock, customers, staff and reports connected.

Daily business problems

Where manual records usually break down

  • Service and product income can be mixed together, making performance difficult to understand.
  • Retail products such as treatments and cosmetics can leave stock without being recorded.
  • Shared staff logins and manual discounting create accountability gaps.

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

Separate non-stock services from physical products, then confirm the price and tax treatment for each sellable item.

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 customer accounts that need sale history, deposits, credit balances or statements.

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 provides salon sales and business records. It does not claim appointment scheduling, stylist commission calculation, chair allocation or treatment records.
