Dukaan POS
Dukaan POS tracks finished goods only. There are no recipes, raw material stock or production schedules, so ingredient costs are entered by you as a cost per kilogram. It suits the shop counter, not the karkhana behind it.
1Weight and box billing
Enter the weight shown on the scale and the price follows the rate per kilogram. Boxes of 500 g and 1 kg can be packages with their own prices, so a box sells in a tap. Mixed baskets are billed as several lines on one bill.
Sweet sales through the year
Example monthly index
2Cost per kilogram
You decide each sweet's cost by your own calculation of ingredients and labour, and enter it when you add the batch to stock. The profit report then shows which sweets earn the most. Review the figures when sugar, ghee or milk prices change.
A good fit
- Weight and box billing
- Waste write-offs
- Festival advances
Not a fit
- Recipe costing
- Raw material stock
- Kitchen scheduling
3Daily waste and spoilage
Milk sweets do not last. Record what you throw away as a write-off at closing, with the quantity in kilograms. The monthly total shows how much making too much costs, and helps you adjust the daily batch size.
🧮 Profit and margin calculator
Margin is profit as a share of the selling price. Markup is profit as a share of cost.
4Festival advances
Before Eid and weddings, customers order large quantities and pay an advance. Record the sale with the advance and keep the balance on their page, then take the rest at pickup. For big orders, note the delivery date in the customer record.
5Corporate and trade buyers
Offices and caterers buy in large amounts and pay later. Give them a khata and a wholesale price, and read the dues list weekly to follow up.
6Busy-day habits
During peak days, put a second cashier on a separate device with their own login, and keep the scale beside the counter. A short closing routine, with waste recorded and cash counted, keeps the books right through the rush.
7A worked example
The kitchen makes 25 kg of barfi at a cost of Rs 1,100 a kilo, priced at Rs 1,600. By closing, 22 kg have sold; 3 kg are written off at a cost of Rs 3,300. The profit report shows Rs 11,000 on the sales less Rs 3,300 of waste. If that happens every day, you can see why reducing the batch by 2 kg pays.
8Festival days
On Eid week, queue speed decides sales. Put a second cashier on a second device, keep the scale beside the counter and bill boxes in a tap. Record advances on large orders as they are taken, so the pickup list is already in the system when the rush starts.
9What to test in the free trial
Enter five sweets with a price per kilogram and a box package, add a batch as stock, and bill weights typed from your scale. Then write off a small amount and read the report. Check whether entering your own cost per kilogram is something you are comfortable with, since the app will not work it out for you.
