Billing software for shops that replaces the paper bill book

Many owners still write bills by hand in a bill book, then add the day's total on a calculator at night. Billing software for shops removes both jobs. Dukaan POS creates a numbered bill for each sale, remembers who owes what, and gives you the daily total without adding a single line yourself.

1From bill book to numbered bills

A paper bill book has three weak points: the carbon copy fades, a torn page cannot be recovered and nobody adds the pages up correctly at month end. In Dukaan POS every bill gets its own invoice number automatically, in order, and is saved with the items, quantities, prices, discount, amount paid and amount due. You can reopen any bill from the sales list weeks later.

2What a bill contains

Each bill records the date, the customer (or Walk-in customer), every product with its quantity and price, the discount, the total, how it was paid and what is still owed. If the bill is part cash and part credit, both parts are visible. The cashier's name is saved too, so you can trace a bill back to whoever made it.

3Sharing bills instead of printing them

After saving a sale you can share the bill (for example by WhatsApp) or download it as a PDF. For many customers a message on their phone is easier than a slip of paper they will lose, and you keep a clear digital record of what you sent.

A discount comes straight out of profit, so it must be won back in extra sales.

4Bills that stay correct when things change

If a price was entered wrongly or a customer returns an item, you record a return or correction against the bill. The original is kept and the change is added as a linked entry, so the history of what happened is never erased. That protects you in a disagreement and makes month-end totals trustworthy.

5Daily totals without a calculator

Because every bill is saved as data, the day's total, the number of bills and the payment split between cash, bank and wallets are available immediately in the sales reports. You can choose any date range and download the result as PDF or CSV.

★Get started in four steps

  1. Add your products and pricesEnter each item once with its retail price, and a wholesale price if you sell in bulk.
  2. Make your first billChoose the items and customer, take the payment and save.
  3. Share itUse the Share or PDF button on the bill screen to send it to the customer.
  4. Check the totalsOpen the daily sales report at closing time and compare it with your cash.

?Questions about billing software for shops

Can I replace my bill book with this?

Yes, if sharing or downloading a PDF bill suits your customers. Each bill is numbered and saved automatically.

Can I make a bill without choosing a customer?

Yes, as a Walk-in customer, provided it is paid in full. Credit bills need a named customer.

Can I change a bill after saving it?

You can record a return or a correction. The original bill is kept and the change is linked to it, so the history is preserved.

Does it add GST or sales tax?

Dukaan POS records prices as you enter them. It does not calculate tax lines or file tax returns, so check your tax obligations with an adviser.

Can I get the bills in a file?

Reports can be downloaded as PDF or CSV, and each bill can be downloaded as a PDF.
