Fabric Inventory Software for Roll and Metre Stock
HisabLekha is fabric inventory software for stores that sell by length. It connects roll opening metres, cuts, remaining metres, per-roll barcode label copies, supplier purchases, GST billing, barcode lookup, estimates with deposits, and WhatsApp-ready estimates.
What does HisabLekha handle for this shop type?
Fabric stores need roll balance, metre cuts, remaining length, GST billing, supplier purchases, estimates, and stock movement to stay tied together. For an open metre-tracked roll, staff can select how many barcode label copies to print; fixed-SKU copy behavior remains separate.
Track roll opening metres, cut metres, and remaining metres per roll.
Bill fabric by metre while keeping GST and stock correct.
Record supplier purchases and allocate each billed line to the colours or items you actually received.
Use barcode or quick lookup for fabric counter billing.
For an open metre-tracked roll, select how many barcode label copies to print; fixed-SKU copy behavior remains separate.
Connect fabric stock, estimates with deposits, and WhatsApp-ready estimates in one flow.
How do fashion shop inventory models differ?
The sellable unit changes by shop type. This table shows which product attributes and workflow matter for each category.
| Shop type | Inventory model | Relevant workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Full fabric roll | Design + colour + roll + opening metres | Purchase entry, metre balance, and low-stock review |
| Cut-length sale | Selected roll + cut metres | Metre billing, stock deduction, and invoice sharing |
| Short piece | Remaining metres on the open roll | Quick lookup, sale, and physical reconciliation |
| Multi-shop fabric retailer | Roll or fabric item + shop | Shop-wise stock and GST bills; owners can move whole-number counted items between shops (metre-tracked rolls are not transferred as rolls) |
When should a retailer verify the fit first?
- Roll and metre balances depend on correct opening quantities, cut entries, returns, and stock adjustments; the software does not replace a physical count or measuring-tool check.
- Stores should verify decimal precision, HSN/GST configuration, barcode labels, printer setup, and supplier import data before migration.
- Stock transfers between shops are owner-only and take whole numbers; metre-tracked rolls are not transferred between shops as rolls.
