    Every invoice and payment of a shop, as a PDF to hand over.

    The statement

Every day

  • You open the round and pick today’s shops.
  • At each shop: count, restock, collect, confirm.
  • In the evening, Home shows what is still owed.

What you see

You see each shop’s balance, what it sold, and what it paid, without a notebook.

Time and effort

Items and shops once, about ten minutes. Then a visit is four short steps.

Common mistakes

  • Delivering without an invoice. The debt is then nowhere.
  • Skipping the count at a visit. The sales and the restock come from it.
  • Putting a consignment shop on credit. Its goods are billed at once.
