Retail billing

Issue the bill and keep the stock record with it.

A shop slows down when the invoice, the cash, and the available stock are updated in different books. LITKHATA is for shopkeepers and trading counters that need those tasks together.

Built around your business

Turn daily activity into a clearer business view.

At a busy counter, billing should leave a usable record for the rest of the business. Connect item selection, invoices, cash, and inventory so the shop can review the day's sales and stock without reconstructing the transactions from separate books.

Simplify counter entry

Use a consistent item catalogue and supported barcode-assisted selection.

Keep sales and stock connected

Review inventory alongside the transactions that changed it.

Make day-end review easier

Bring invoices and cash records together for reconciliation.

Solution capabilities to scope

What your retail billing solution should connect.

Build the scope around the records your team uses, the decisions it makes, and the exceptions it needs to manage.

01 / SOLUTION AREA

Item selection and invoices

Use an organized item catalogue and barcode-assisted selection where applicable to prepare customer invoices with the required quantities and prices.

02 / SOLUTION AREA

Cash and payment records

Keep cash records alongside the day’s invoices so the team can compare recorded sales and collections during closing.

03 / SOLUTION AREA

Inventory visibility

Review stock balances and movements alongside counter activity, with agreed procedures for receipts, returns, and corrections.

04 / SOLUTION AREA

Counter tools and data entry

Review barcode equipment, document scanning, and text-to-speech using your own items, labels, and documents to confirm the right setup.

  • Daily sales and invoice register
  • Item stock balances and movements
  • Cash and payment reconciliation
  • Item-wise sales review

Agree the scope and acceptance criteria first, then prepare the data and people who will run the process.

    Discover the operation

    Walk through a real transaction with your operations and accounts teams. Agree the priorities, exceptions, and reports.

  2. 02

    Design and configure

    Confirm product fit, responsibilities, approvals, and data fields. Scope any add-ons, custom workflows, and integrations.

  3. 03

    Prepare opening data

    Clean and map master records, opening stock, balances, and active transactions. Reconcile the data before migration.

  4. 04

    Test and train

    Run representative transactions and exceptions with your users. Verify calculations, reports, access, and operating procedures.

  5. 05

    Go live and review

    Agree the cutover plan and support arrangements. Review early transactions and resolve issues with the responsible team.

Before you decide

Your industry questions, answered.

Can we keep our barcode scanner and invoice printer?

Share device models, sample labels, and the invoice format you use. Check compatibility in a walkthrough, together with document scanning and text-to-speech requirements, before planning the counter changeover.

What determines the implementation scope and cost?

The scope depends on your users, locations, opening data, approvals, reporting, and integrations. We review a representative workflow and agree what uses standard functionality, what needs configuration, and what needs additional development before preparing the proposal.
