1Billing in cartons and bags
Trade customers buy cartons, bags and crates, not single items. Each product can have a carton or bag package with its own wholesale price; the cashier chooses Wholesale, taps the item, picks the package and types the quantity. A shopkeeper buying 10 cartons of biscuits, 5 bags of rice and 20 packets of tea gets one bill, and the stock for all three falls in the right units.

2Negotiated rates stay negotiated
Regular customers often have rates agreed with the owner. On the customer's page you set a rate for each product, and wholesale bills to that customer use it. The cashier cannot forget it, and a new cashier does not need to be told. If the deal changes, you change the rate once.

3Every customer has a khata
Shopkeepers buy on credit and pay in instalments, so each sale records how much was paid now and how much remains, with a due date. Their page shows what they owe, every bill and every payment. Payments are recorded as they arrive, whether cash, bank, JazzCash or Easypaisa, and the right balance is increased.

4The Monday dues routine
The most useful habit in a wholesale shop is reading the dues list once a week. The customer dues report lists balances with the oldest due dates first. Call the top five, agree a payment date and record what arrives. In a business where the money sitting with customers can exceed the stock on the shelf, this one list is worth more than any other report.
5Controlling what staff can do
On a busy counter you want the cashier to sell and take payments, a stock person to receive goods and a manager to approve corrections. Roles do that, and only the owner sees profit. Discounts are off for cashiers unless you switch them on.
6What a good week looks like
Wholesale shops that stay healthy tend to follow a rhythm. Monday: read the dues list and call the oldest balances. Tuesday and Wednesday: receive and record supplier deliveries. Thursday: review stock against the low-stock list and place orders. Friday: look at the week's sales and cash and decide what to pay suppliers. Saturday: count the drawer and a section of the stock. The app does not set this routine, but it puts the right figures in front of you on each day.
