Detailed operational guide

Each step explains what to do, why to do it, and the expected result.

1. Create your account and access dashboard

Sign up, log in, and confirm you land in your store workspace. Check language, theme, and base settings.

2. Configure store information

Set store name, currency, timezone, logo, and visual preferences. This ensures consistent screens, receipts, and reports.

3. Add categories and products

Create product families, then add name, SKU, barcode, selling price, and cost. Enable stock tracking where needed.

4. Initialize and verify stock

Load initial quantities by warehouse, then verify levels in stock module. Set low-stock thresholds to prevent stockouts.

5. Register suppliers and purchases

Create suppliers, record purchases, and validate inbound stock lines. This builds a reliable cost and intake history.

Use quick search or product cards, adjust qty/discount, finalize payment, then print receipt. Stock is deducted automatically.

7. Track sales, expenses, and reports

Review order history, record expenses, and use reports to monitor revenue, margin, and daily performance.
