Before and after

What slows retail stores down, and how Tryso fixes it

Shops selling over the counter, often with more than one branch and a website on the side.

  1. The problem

    Counts that never match

    The till, the store room and the website each keep their own numbers, so every stock take turns up surprises.

    With Tryso

    Every sale, receipt and transfer moves one stock ledger shared by the counter, the website and the store room.

  2. The problem

    Slow billing at busy times

    Searching for products by name holds up the queue when a barcode scan should be enough.

    With Tryso

    Barcode-first billing with keyboard search, and held bills for customers who step away.

  3. The problem

    No view across branches

    Owners phone each branch at closing time to find out what sold and what is running low.

    With Tryso

    Sales, cash sessions and stock are reported per branch and for the whole business in one place.

    Accounting

01

One count for every shelf, store room and branch

Each branch and warehouse holds its own quantity, and the business total is simply their sum. Transfers between locations are documents with a sender and a receiver, so stock never disappears in transit and nobody has to phone round to find a product.

  • Quantity per branch and per warehouse
  • Transfers that both sides confirm
  • Reservations for orders not yet shipped

02

Batches and expiry dates on every delivery

Receive goods with a batch number and expiry date, and see which batch is oldest before you pick. Food, medicine and cosmetics leave the shelf in date order instead of being found after they have expired.

  • Batch and expiry captured at goods receipt
  • Oldest stock visible when picking
  • Low stock thresholds per product and variant

03

Every change has a reason and a document

Counts, damages and write-offs are adjustments with a reason on every line, and sales, receipts and transfers are movements against the same ledger. When a number looks wrong, you can trace it to the document that changed it.

  • Adjustments with a reason per line
  • Receipts that move stock and valuation together
  • Stock valuation from recorded movements

Frequently asked questions

What software does a retail store need?

Most retail stores need a point of sale, inventory, purchasing and accounting that share one product list. Tryso provides these as apps in one system, so you switch on only what you use.

Can I run several shops on one Tryso account?

Yes. Branches sit under one organization with their own stock, tills and staff, and reports can be filtered by branch or seen for the whole business.

What is inventory management software?

Inventory management software records every stock movement, such as sales, purchases, transfers and adjustments, so you always know how much of each product you have and where it is. Tryso keeps one stock ledger for the shop floor, the online store and the warehouse.

Can Tryso track stock across several branches?

Yes. Stock is held per branch and per warehouse, and transfers between them are recorded documents, so each location shows its own quantity and the business total adds up.

Does Tryso support batch and expiry tracking?

Yes. Products can be received in batches with expiry dates, which matters for pharmacies, food and cosmetics where you need to sell the oldest stock first.

Will online orders reduce my stock automatically?

Yes. Orders from your Tryso storefront reserve stock when they are placed, so you cannot sell the same item twice across the website and the counter.

Is there a free inventory plan?

Yes. Tryso has a free plan with no card required, so you can load your products and try stock tracking before you pay for anything.
