A computer shop may sell a laptop, a keyboard and a monitor together, while another customer orders equipment that will arrive later. Similar model names can hide different specifications, and a package price can make it harder to see exactly what the customer is receiving.
For computer retailers across Sri Lanka, a useful POS routine connects catalogue descriptions, stock, serials and the final order. Distribook provides those retail workflows according to the enabled modules and staff permissions; specialist technical-service requirements should be confirmed separately during setup.
Make model differences visible
Use product names that distinguish the specification combinations you actually stock. Record genuinely different models separately and check for existing records before adding another entry for an identical item.
Review category, base unit, cost and selling prices, identifiers and branch availability. Staff should be able to match the product on screen with the equipment and packaging in front of them.
The product setup guide explains the available fields. Product descriptions do not establish manufacturer compatibility or performance claims; check those details from the actual product information.
Build packages without losing component detail
A computer offer may group a main product with accessories. Admin bundle setup supports a single bundle price or each item’s own price, main and extra products, quantities, effective dates and permitted substitutions.
At POS, the available package workflow lets staff review components and selectable variants before adding the package. Package repricing has separate controls, so permission to change an ordinary product price does not automatically allow changing a package price.
Use bundles and targets for setup and POS packages and serials for the selling workflow. Check the actual available controls instead of assuming every Admin bundle option appears on every selling screen.
Track the equipment actually received and supplied
Check incoming quantities, supplier costs, destination warehouse and applicable serials. A receipt draft preserves work but does not receive stock. Review the posted record before treating the shipment as available for sale.
For serial-tracked sales, select the identifiers of the actual units handed to the customer, including required components within a package. Review enabled warranty details and supplied accessories before completing payment.
The receiving guide explains stock posting. The warranty guide helps authorised staff find coverage linked to the customer and original sale.
Separate an order from the goods delivered
When a customer orders equipment for later supply, keep requested and supplied quantities clear. Admin Orders records the customer, selling location, products, delivery details and expected date where available.
Delivery and invoicing actions review the quantities going out now. An order or selected payment method does not by itself prove that money was received or goods left the shop. Serial selection and stock state still need checking when the applicable invoice is raised.
Follow the order guide, especially for partial fulfilment. Do not create a second invoice to resolve an uncertain result without checking the first record.
Train the counter on final checks
Before taking payment, confirm the model, components, serials, selling quantities and total. Record the actual payment method and wait for the saved result. Reprint a saved receipt when needed rather than recreating the sale.
Review stock and prices under the intended warehouse and give staff permissions suited to their duties. A clear record makes later customer questions easier to investigate without reconstructing a package from memory.
