Simple vs Variable — which to pick?

• Simple product = one item, one price, one stock count, one barcode. Examples: a 100g Colgate, a 1kg sugar packet.
• Variable product = one item that comes in options (size / colour / weight), each with its own price, stock and barcode. Examples: a shirt in S/M/L, oil in 1L/5L, a chappal in many colours.

Add a SIMPLE product

1. Choose Simple product at the top.
2. Fill Name (required), and optionally Brand, Unit (PCS/KG/GRAM/LITER…), Category, Supplier.
3. Under Pricing: MRP, Selling price (required), and Cost (what you paid — used for profit).
4. Under Initial stock: Qty, and Low-stock at (you'll be alerted when stock falls to this).
5. Set GST %, HSN, and the Barcode (type it, scan 📷, or tap Gen to auto-make one).
6. Add photos (drag, camera, or folder). Tick Visible in my shop store to sell online. Save.

Add a VARIABLE product

1. Choose Variable product. The price box hides (price lives on each variant).
2. Fill the common Name, Category, GST, etc.
3. In the Variants section, create your option sets — e.g. Colour: Red, Blue · Size: M, L.
4. Tap Generate combinations — it makes every mix (Red-M, Red-L, Blue-M, Blue-L…).
5. For each variant set its Selling price, Qty and Barcode (auto or manual). Save.

Edit price or stock later

Open the product from the list → change price/qty → Save. Or do it instantly from WhatsApp (see last section). Bulk edits are available from the product list.

Where a product gets its barcode

• Type an existing barcode into the product's Barcode field, or
• Tap 📷 to scan a printed barcode, or
• Tap Gen to auto-create a fresh barcode. (If you print a label for a product with no barcode, one is created automatically.)

Print barcode / QR labels

1. Open the Barcode print window (from Sell now or the products area).
2. Search a product → tap to add it to the print list. Add as many products as you like.
3. Choose Code type: Barcode (1D lines) or QR code.
4. Choose Feed: Label roll (set Width × Height in mm and Gap) or A4 sheet.
5. Optionally add Batch no, Expiry (MM/YYYY), and set Qty (how many stickers, 1–200) per product.
6. Check the live preview, then tap 🖨️ Print.

Design your own label — Label designer

Open Template design ▸ Label designer. Set the label Width × Height, then drag fields (Product name, Price, Barcode, QR, Batch, Expiry, Shop name, custom text) onto the canvas. Select any field to change font size, bold, alignment and exact position. Save as a named template — it then appears as "🏷️ Use my custom label" in the print window and in the mobile app.

Inventory Stock ▸ Inventory

See all stock in one place — quantity, low-stock warnings, and location (shelf/godown). Tap a product to adjust the quantity. Search by name, SKU or barcode.

Categories Stock ▸ Categories

Group products (Grocery, Dairy, Stationery…). Add/edit/delete and reorder. Categories help customers browse your online shop and help you in reports.

Suppliers Stock ▸ Suppliers

Keep your suppliers' names & phone numbers, and link products to them. Useful for re-ordering and for purchase records.

Purchases Stock ▸ Purchases

Record stock coming in from a supplier: pick the supplier, add items with qty & cost, mark received — and it's automatically added to your inventory.

Make a bill (step by step)

1. Add items — type in the search box (name / SKU), or scan a barcode. For a variable product, pick the colour/size row.
2. Adjust Qty with − / + on each line. Re-scanning the same item adds +1.
3. (Optional) Tap + Add customer and enter their phone — needed for udhaar, wallet & cashback.
4. (Optional) Enter a Discount. The totals card shows Subtotal, Discount, GST and the big Grand total.
5. Pick a payment (next section) → the bill is finalised and printed.

Three ways to scan

• USB / Bluetooth scanner — plug it in; scanning types into the search box automatically.
• Camera scanner — tap 📷 → point at each barcode. "✓ Got it" confirms; re-scan to bump qty. If an item isn't in your catalogue it offers "Add to catalogue →".
• Your phone as a scanner for the desktop — see below.

📡 Phone-scan → Desktop bridge (the bridge you asked about)

Use your phone's camera as a wireless scanner that drops items straight into the bill open on your desktop/laptop — no scanner machine needed.

1. On the desktop: log in and open Sell now. Keep that tab open and visible.
2. On your phone (same login): open Sell now and turn ON "📡 Use this phone as scanner". It shows "Sending scans to desktop".
3. Scan products with the phone. Each scan rings up live in the desktop cart within ~1–2 seconds.
4. Finish and take payment on the desktop as usual.

Hold & recall, hotkeys

Busy counter? Tap Hold to park a bill and start a new one; tap Recall held to bring it back. On a keyboard: F1 search · F2 customer · F3 discount · F4 hold · F9 finalise with cash.

• Cash — collect cash (or F9).
• UPI / Card — record a UPI or card payment (you can add a reference/UTR).
• Razorpay (UPI / Card) — opens a live online payment so the customer pays digitally and money reaches your account.
• Split — collect one bill in parts (e.g. ₹200 cash + ₹300 UPI). Add lines until "Allocated" matches the total.
• Udhaar (pay later) — record the bill as credit; needs a customer with a phone. It goes to that customer's khata (see Udhaar section).
• Pay from wallet — if the customer has wallet/cashback balance, tick it to use that balance first; the rest is collected normally.

Create / edit a template

1. Tap + New → choose Regular (A4) or Thermal. (Or open an existing one to edit.)
2. Give it a Template name. Pick a Layout theme from the thumbnails, set Accent colour (A4) and Text size.
3. Page size: A4 for regular; for thermal pick T58 (2"), T80 (3"), T112 or custom mm to match your printer.
4. Turn fields on/off:
   • Header: logo, shop name, address, phone, email, GSTIN.
   • Items: HSN, MRP, GST, discount column.
   • Totals: "You saved", amount in words, current balance.
   • Footer: description, terms, bank details, signature, UPI Scan-&-Pay QR.
5. For Thermal: also set bold text, auto-cut, open cash drawer, and upload a signature image (PNG/JPG under 200KB).
6. Set the Invoice title (e.g. "Tax Invoice"), Terms, Bank details, and the UPI id for the Pay QR.
7. Watch the live preview on the right. Save template, and tap Set as default so new bills use it.

How udhaar is created

• From a bill: on the Sell screen, choose Udhaar (pay later) — the bill's amount is added to that customer's khata.
• Manually: tap + Add udhaar → enter Mobile number (required), name, amount, a Promise to pay by date and a note.

The Udhaar screen

A big card shows your total outstanding across all customers. Below, 🔔 Due & overdue lists promises — red = overdue, amber = due today, blue = due in X days. The customer list shows each person's balance and promise date.

Record a payment

1. Open the customer (tap their row).
2. Tap Add payment and enter how much they paid — the balance updates and the history shows the entry.
3. You can also Set promise date or an credit limit for that customer here.

How reminders work

• When you set a Promise to pay by date, Dukai creates an alert for that day — so you remember to follow up.
• Other business reminders live in Manage ▸ Reminders (GST filing, licence expiry, subscription, or a custom one). Set Days before (e.g. 7, 3, 1) to be reminded early. Each reminder can be marked Done, Snoozed or Dismissed.
