1
Weighing scale integration
Connect a standard electronic weighing scale over USB or serial and bill by weight directly — no manual entry, no arithmetic at the counter. Set per-kg rates by item, handle tare for packaging, and bill loose items and fixed-price items on the same receipt.
2
Custom cake and advance order management
Take a full order at the counter or over the phone: flavour, weight, shape, tier count, eggless flag, message on the cake, photo reference, delivery date and time slot, and the advance collected. The order lands on a production list for the right day and shows the balance due at pickup, with automatic WhatsApp confirmation and a reminder the day before.
3
Batch production and recipe costing
Define what goes into a batch — flour, butter, sugar, cream, packaging — and record production against it. Ingredients deduct automatically, so you can see the true cost of a black forest cake as ingredient prices move, and reprice before your margin quietly disappears.
4
Shelf life and expiry tracking
Tag items with their shelf life — a cream bun that's good for a day, a cookie box that's good for a month. The system flags what's ageing out, so staff can discount or pull it before it becomes a write-off rather than after.
5
Wastage and returns reporting
Log unsold stock at close with a reason: expired, damaged, staff consumption, complimentary. Wastage becomes a line you can manage — by item, by day, by outlet — instead of a rounding error you discover in the P&L.
6
Central kitchen to outlet transfers
Bake in one place, sell in several. Raise indents from outlets, dispatch against them, and track what was sent versus received versus sold. Each outlet's closing stock is visible from head office without a phone call.
7
Item-wise GST and mixed-rate bills
Assign the correct tax rate and HSN code per item, so a single bill can carry different rates across bread, pastries and packaged goods correctly. Print GST-compliant invoices on a thermal or A4 printer and export filing-ready tax reports. Bakery classification varies by product and by whether an item is packaged or served on the premises — confirm it with your CA and we configure it once during onboarding.
8
Fast counter billing with barcodes
Barcode-label packaged items and scan them through. Pin fast movers to the first screen for everything else, so festive-rush queues move because the billing screen isn't the bottleneck.
9
UPI, card, cash and split payments
Take any payment method, split across two, and record advances against cake orders separately so your day's collection reconciles cleanly.
10
WhatsApp bills, loyalty and reorders
Send the bill to WhatsApp instead of printing. Attach a phone number to build a customer record, run points or visit-based rewards, and message last year's birthday-cake customers a week before the same date comes around.
11
Works offline
Billing runs locally and continues through an internet outage, syncing to the cloud when the connection returns. Nothing is lost and nothing has to be re-entered.
12
Reports that answer real questions
Production versus sales by item. Wastage by item and outlet. Hourly sales so you know when to bake the second batch. Cake orders due this week. Item-wise margin after ingredient cost. Daily closing summary to WhatsApp before you leave.
