Inventory that counts itself.
Every sale updates stock in real time - across counters, stores and the warehouse. From purchase order to shelf to sale, one ledger.
Functionality
What the inventory system does
Real-time stock ledger
Every bill decrements stock the moment it prints - across all counters and stores. What the dashboard says is what the shelf holds.
Purchase orders & suppliers
Raise purchase orders, receive goods against them and keep supplier records with pending-delivery visibility - the paper trail builds itself.
Batch & expiry tracking
Batch numbers and expiry dates travel with stock, so pharmacies and FMCG counters rotate product before it dies on the shelf.
Weighing-scale integration
Loose goods - grains, vegetables, sweets - are priced straight from the connected scale into the bill. No manual entry, no leakage.
Multi-store stock transfer
Move stock between outlets and the warehouse with transfer records both ends agree on - no more “it left here but never arrived there”.
Low-stock alerts & auto-replenishment
Set reorder points and minimum order quantities (MOQ) per item - low-stock alerts fire before the shelf goes empty, and auto-replenishment raises the reorder for you.
How it works
From purchase order to shelf to sale
-
1
Raise the purchase order
Orders go to suppliers from the system, with supplier records and pending-delivery visibility - the paper trail starts building itself.
-
2
Receive goods against it
Stock comes in against the PO, with batch numbers and expiry dates recorded where they matter - pharmacies and FMCG counters get FIFO from day one.
-
3
Sell, and the ledger moves
Every bill decrements stock the moment it prints, across every counter and store - the dashboard and the shelf stay in agreement.
-
4
Transfer between outlets
Stock moves to another store or the warehouse with a transfer record at both ends - dispatch and receipt each acknowledged.
-
5
The alert fires before the gap
Reorder points and minimum order quantities per item trigger low-stock alerts, and auto-replenishment raises the reorder for you.
-
6
Count, and reconcile against data
Stock-takes start from a live expected figure instead of zero - the audit becomes a reconciliation, not an expedition.
Outcomes
What changes in the back room
Stockouts stop surprising you
Best-sellers get reordered before they vanish - the alert arrives while there’s still time to act.
Shelves stay full.Expiry losses shrink
Batch-wise visibility means older stock sells first and write-offs stop eating margin.
FIFO, enforced by software.Stock-take becomes a formality
A live ledger replaces the annual counting chaos - audits reconcile against data, not memory.
Count days, not weeks.Every store sells from one catalogue
Items, prices and taxes stay consistent across outlets - updated once, everywhere at once.
One source of truth."We were growing faster than our retail infrastructure could handle. Stockouts on our best sellers, wrong billing at pharmacy counters, chaotic launches - and NukkadShops fixed all of it. For the first time, we had real time visibility across our offline network and the confidence to expand aggressively without things falling apart at the store level."
Where it fits
Built for shelves, back rooms and warehouses
Batch and expiry tracking make it a fit for pharmacies and medical stores; weighing-scale integration covers the loose-goods trade of kirana stores; and multi-store transfers on a single catalogue are what keep supermarkets and chains honest as they grow.
For counting at scale, the dedicated Inventory Audit tool works against the same ledger, and the analytics layer turns stock into margin and movement reports.
Restaurants consume ingredients, not SKUs - for kitchens, DINO’s ingredient-level inventory runs the same discipline in kilos and litres.
Questions, answered.
How quickly does stock update after a sale?
Instantly. The stock ledger updates in real time as each bill is generated, across every counter and store on your network.
Can I manage purchase orders and suppliers?
Yes. You can raise purchase orders, track goods received against them and maintain supplier records with pending-delivery visibility.
Does it track batches and expiry dates?
Yes. Batch numbers and expiry dates are tracked with stock - essential for pharmacies, FMCG and any counter selling perishables.
Does it integrate with weighing scales?
Yes. Connected weighing scales price loose goods directly into the bill - grains, vegetables, sweets and other by-weight items.
Can I transfer stock between stores?
Yes. Multi-store stock transfers are recorded at both ends - dispatch and receipt - so inter-store movement stays accountable.
Will it alert me before items run out?
Yes. Set reorder points per item and the system flags low stock before the shelf goes empty.
What is inventory management in a POS system?
It means the stock ledger and the billing counter are the same system: purchases add stock, every sale deducts it in real time, transfers and wastage are recorded, and alerts fire before items run out. There is no separate register to reconcile - the POS is the register.
What is auto-replenishment?
You set a reorder point and a minimum order quantity per item. When stock falls to the reorder point, the system raises the reorder for you - the shelf gets refilled on rules, not on memory.
