Step-by-Step Implementation Guide
Hardware Setup: Barcode Scanners & Thermal Printers
Connect standard USB/Bluetooth handheld barcode scanners and 58mm/80mm ESC/POS thermal receipt printers. KhataIN auto-detects standard POS peripherals without complex driver installations.
Warehouse & Godown Bin Organization
Define multiple storage locations in your software (e.g. Counter Shelf A, Central Godown, Transit Van). Assign SKU codes and batch numbers to enable accurate stock transfers.
Barcode Label Printing & SKU Numbering
Generate and print EAN-13 or Code-128 barcode stickers directly from your product catalog for items that arrive without manufacturer packaging.
Optimizing Fast Counter Checkout (<50ms)
Train staff on hotkeys and keyboard-first checkout. KhataIN processes item lookups, discount calculations, and thermal receipts within 50 milliseconds to keep checkout lines moving fast.
Offline Billing Resilience
If your internet drops, KhataIN continues billing transactions locally in your browser storage. All invoices sync back to the cloud automatically once the connection restores.
