Mixed inventory, unmixed clarity
The general store's superpower — variety — becomes its bookkeeping curse: atta margins differ from eraser margins, and both hide among fifty other lines. Category structure fixes the fog (product organization guide): groceries, stationery, household, hardware bits — each visible separately in reports, so you finally know which mini-shop inside your store pays the rent.
The family-business pattern
- Week one: billing + top-50 items + regulars' khata. Nothing else.
- Week two: low-stock levels on fast movers (reorder basics).
- Week three: expenses logged nightly (expense habit).
- Week four: first honest profit look (profit view) — usually surprising.
Built for whoever stands at the counter
Fathers, sons, cousins on evening duty — rotation is normal in family stores. The interface expects it: billing takes seconds, udhaar marks itself against named regulars (khata app page), and nothing breaks when the person changes mid-day. Training help lives in the worker training guide.
Pricing respects thin margins everywhere: 500/mo · 4000/yr · 10000 lifetime till 30 Sep, free start via trial, offline always (offline mode).
