Automated workplace of the seller


Login to seller window

Let's get into the module "sales" . When the search box appears, click the button "empty" . Then select action from above "Sell" .

Menu. Automated workplace of the seller

The automated workplace of the seller will appear. With it, you can sell goods very quickly.

Important Please read why you will not be able to read the instructions in parallel and work in the window that appears.

Selling goods using a barcode scanner

In the automated workplace of the seller, the third block from the left edge is the main one. It is he who allows you to work with the goods - and this is the main thing that the seller does.

Working with goods

When the window is opened, the focus is on the input field into which the barcode is read. This means that you can immediately use the scanner to make a sale.

Input field for barcode reading

If you buy many copies of the same product, you can either read each copy with a scanner, or enter the total number of identical products on the keyboard, and then read the barcode from any of them once. That will be much faster. For this there is an input field for ' Amount ' to the left of the field for ' Barcode '.

Input field for item quantity

Image of the product in the sale

When a product is sold by a barcode scanner, a photo of the product immediately appears on the panel on the left on the ' Image ' tab, if you previously uploaded it to the nomenclature .

Image of the product in the sale

Important Read about screen dividers if the panel on the left is collapsed and you can't see it.

The image of the product that appears when using a barcode scanner allows the seller to verify that the product that is released to the client matches the one that is entered in the database.

Selling goods without a barcode scanner

If you have a small assortment of goods or you work in the ' street food ' mode, then you can sell without a barcode scanner, quickly choosing the right product from the list by name and image. To do this, use the panel on the left side of the window by clicking on the ' Product selection ' tab.

Selecting a product from the list

To select the desired product, just double-click on it.

Panel on the left side of the window

Using the screen divider, you can resize the area on the left.

Changing the width of the left panel

Depending on the width of the left panel, more or less items will be placed in the list. You can also change the width of each column so that any seller can customize the most convenient way to display data.

Sale from different warehouses

Under the list of products there is a drop-down list of warehouses. Using it, you can view the availability of goods in different warehouses and stores.

Product search by name

If you do not have a barcode scanner, and there are a lot of goods, then you can quickly search for a product by name. To do this, in a special input field, write part of the name of the product we need and press the Enter key.

The list will display only those products that match the search criteria.

Discount on a specific item

There are also fields for providing a discount, if sales in your organization provide for them. Since the ' USU ' program automates any trade, it can be used both in stores with fixed prices and on trading floors where it is customary to bargain.

Product Discount

To provide a discount, first select the basis of the discount from the list. Then we indicate the discount either as a percentage or a certain amount by filling in one of the two following fields. And only after that we read the barcode of the product with a scanner. In this case, the price will be taken from the main price list, but already taking into account the discount you specified.

If you do not want sellers or certain employees to provide discounts, then on the order you can limit this at the program level.

Important Here it is written how to provide a discount on all goods in the check .

Important You can also print a discount memo , so as not to enter anything, but simply read the barcodes to provide discounts.

Important It is possible to control all provided one-time discounts using a special report.

Sale Composition

When you scanned the barcode with a scanner or double-clicked on an item from the list, the item's name appears as part of the sale.
