Sell interior and exterior paints, enamels, varnish, primers, waterproofing and spray paints by brand, finish and can size, with the brushes, rollers, fillers and thinners that go with them. Tint a base to the colour code the customer asks for, or pick the colour you mixed for them last time with its tints scaled to this can size, write the batch / shade number on the invoice so the next can matches, and sell to painting contractors on their contract prices and credit terms or to a home owner at the shelf price.
The POS, the dashboards and the charts as they look in the Paint Store POS demo store, on a computer, a tablet and a phone.
Paint store dashboard
Paints, enamels and sundries sold by section and brand with their margin, tinting and colour services against goods, the contractors and painters that buy most and what they still owe.
POS terminal at the counter
The full POS on a touch monitor: product pictures, the current sale, the VAT and the total as you go.
Your figures on the phone
The same dashboard on your phone, wherever you are.
Paints by brand, finish and can size, tinting to each customer's saved colour formula, base + tint costing, batch and shade numbers, contractors on credit.
Tinting to a saved colour
Type the RAL, NCS or fan deck code on a can, or pick the customer's saved colour; its tints show in ml for this can size, ready for the tinting machine.
Base + tint costing
Each formula costs the base can plus every tint at its cost a litre against the price of the tinted can, so the colours sold below cost or on a thin margin show first.
Finish, can size and base
Find a paint by its finish (matt, silk, gloss), its can (1 L, 4 L, 18 L) and its base, in ten sections from interior paints to thinners and tapes.
Batch and shade numbers
Write the batch / shade number of each can on the invoice line, and keep batches with their shelf life, so more cans for the same wall match.
Contractors on credit, walk-ins at the shelf price
Contractors, painters, developers and facilities teams buy at contract prices on 30 to 60-day terms with their credit left on screen; a home owner pays the shelf price.
Tools, sundries and services
Brushes, rollers, fillers, sandpaper, thinners and tapes on the same bill, with tinting, colour matching, sample pots and site delivery as services.
Ready-made sections and starter items
The terminal opens with these product sections. Load the starter items in one click, then rename them, change prices or add your own products and barcodes.
