With an easy-to-use interface and a variety of powerful features, this software makes managing your store simple and efficient, saving you time and boosting your sales potential.
Top Features for Model Train Shops
This software comes equipped with multiple functionalities that can be customized to meet your business needs. Here's what you can do:
- Retail Sales: Purchase stock from wholesalers, manufacturers, or dealers and seamlessly manage sales using the software’s retail features. Inventory tracking ensures accurate stock control and restocking.
- Buy Outright (Resale): For shops that buy model trains directly from individuals, the software allows you to easily record information about the seller and their items, including pictures and detailed descriptions.
- Consignment Management: Add items to inventory through consignment, and keep an accurate record of items owned by consignors. The program includes a customizable consignment agreement, enabling smooth terms and conditions for consignors.
- Rental Management: Some model train items might be better suited for rental rather than direct sales. The software supports rental functionality, allowing you to track rental periods, security deposits, and fees. Late returns are no problem with automatic late fee calculation.
- Layaway Plans: Want to give your customers a convenient way to pay for their purchases over time? The layaway feature allows you to set up payment schedules, so customers can reserve their items and pay in installments without interest.
Point of Sale (POS) System Built for Model Train Sales
The integrated POS system in the consignment software provides a seamless experience for processing sales, managing inventory, and generating receipts. With various options for sales tax calculations (tax-free, by item, or based on a threshold), you can adjust settings to match your local tax rules.
Items can be quickly entered at the point of sale through different methods: by barcode scan, by unique Item ID, through an easy pick list, or by manual entry for those unique or one-off items. Apply discounts by dollar amount or percentage for flexibility in pricing.
Inventory Tracking and Label Printing
Keeping track of your model train inventory is key to smooth operations. The software makes it easy to add, update, and remove items as needed. Labels and price tags can be printed on adhesive or non-adhesive material, and can be printed in sheets or on rolls—whichever fits your business model best.
Floor Space Rental for Exhibits, Events, and Museums
If you operate a museum or organize events like model train exhibits and fairs, renting floor space to dealers or hobbyists is made easier with this software. Track booth and floor space assignments, record renter information, manage rent amounts, and apply customizable fees.
The central POS station can be used to sell merchandise for multiple vendors, crediting each vendor's account correctly for their share of the sales proceeds. The software can also generate comprehensive vendor sales reports, ensuring transparency and easy financial management for all parties involved.
