The groups on the home screen, and where each screen lives.
The setup journey
Two strips walk with you: the brand's setup, then the shop's.
Start by naming your brand
The first step is a name and nothing else. No paperwork, and no approval needed.

From the customer's order to the handover at the counter.

The day calendar, booking from the desk, and what the customer does from their wallet, for every business that books.

The customer profile
Press any member and their file opens: their numbers, what they buy, and their whole story with you.

The dashboard: where to start
Eleven cards, in a deliberate order. Read them in it.
Period, grouping and branch
Three filters above everything: which period, how big a point, which branch.
Customers drifting away
Four groups and a call list, and what to do with each group.
What sells: two channels that are never added
Order-ahead is one question, the counter is another. Adding them gives you a wrong number.
The order-ahead funnel
From placed to «ready» to handed over, and where you leak.
When you are busy
168 squares on the Riyadh clock. The grid you build your shifts on.
What this dashboard cannot answer
Nine questions we cannot answer, and why. Read it so you can trust the rest.
Accounting
The books, bills, payroll and statements.
Opening the books
One set of books for your brand, every branch a cost centre, and your sales and purchases post by themselves.
Bills and expenses
Rent, electricity and every bill you pay. Once or every month, with its photo attached.
The seller's invoice and quick purchases
A photo or PDF of the invoice on every delivery, and purchases paid in cash from the drawer, with their receipt required or optional, as you decide.
When to order: delivery times and reorder alerts
Type how many days the supplier takes, and we work out from your branch's use when to order and how much, and tell you before it runs out.

Financial statements and reports
Financial position, profit, cash flows and the notes, printed for your auditor.
Reports and payments through the payment gateway

Your accountant
Give your accountant the books with one permission, and keep the approvals yourself.
