Real shop footage
Watch bulk barcode tags print for an unstitched-suit counter
Customer-shared footage from a HisabLekha shop shows a large batch of unstitched-suit styles selected in Barcode Studio. At 00:04, the continuous-roll print preview displays 153 labels; that is the label count, not the number of distinct styles. The clip then shows priced, sized tags printed and ready to tag stock.

The original proof shows 153 labels in the continuous-roll preview, then the flow from selected styles to printed tags.

Select styles in Barcode Studio
Pick the styles ready for the counter — the footage shows a large batch of unstitched-suit styles selected at once. At 00:04, the continuous-roll preview displays 153 labels; that is the label count, not the number of distinct styles.
Print the labels
Print from the Barcode Studio preview to a label printer set up in the desktop app, or through the browser's print dialog. Confirm your printer, and the plan that includes thermal label printers, on the pricing page.
Priced, sized tags — ready to hang
Each tag carries the price and size with a barcode, so it can go straight onto the stock.

Reports > Outstandings separates this shop's pending sale bills for saved customers from supplier purchase bills and opening balances. Switch between Receivables and Payables, age by invoice date or recorded due date, search a party, open bill details, and print or export CSV. Relevant supplier-debt insight actions open Payables directly. A missing due date uses the invoice date; the report does not pay suppliers or combine shops.
See the outstanding report workflowSecure hosted invoice and estimate links
Create a customer-facing link for an eligible sale, return, exchange, or estimate so the shop can share, print, or revoke the hosted document from the connected workflow.
See invoice sharingCombined estimates with shop-scoped deposits
For participating shops, record the deposit by shop, show the combined amount received and balance pending, and carry the scoped deposit into conversion without treating it as a new payment.

Select label copies for an open metre-tracked roll, or create a category and category-scoped subcategory inline while adding a SKU; these are separate, permissioned setup workflows.

Long exchange item descriptions can wrap in the A5 table while quantity, rate, tax, and Amount figures stay readable inside the printed sheet. Verify the shop's real paper and printer path.
See exchange-safe printingReturn credit for older same-shop dues
For a positive return-credit payment, the supported workflow can allocate credit FIFO to older completed-sale dues for the same customer and shop. Cash-refund returns remain separate and any remaining credit stays reviewable.

Supported invoice templates can save the order of supported item columns and show optional MRP fields, including ruled bill-book controls. Preview the exact paper size and printer output before rollout.
See invoice controlsRecorded GST place-of-supply state
Supported sale invoices record a normalized place-of-supply state, using the shop state for a walk-in when no customer state is saved. Review the invoice or GST report with the retailer's accountant before relying on the tax result.
See GST reporting workflowsCross-shop roll barcode lookup
During supported combined checkout, a compatible physical roll barcode from another participating shop can be resolved after a shop-membership check before the real roll or SKU is loaded.
See cross-shop checkoutRetry-safe checkout after a lost response
For supported online sales, returns, exchanges, and combined checkout, the same request can be checked again after a lost response. Confirmed results can be replayed instead of silently recorded twice, while unknown outcomes remain reviewable.

Receive stock, assign or scan a barcode, raise a GST invoice, and reduce the exact size-colour variant at the counter.

If the business runs several shops on one account, use combined checkout with separate shop-wise GST invoices when one customer buys from participating stores; the pricing page shows which plan includes multi-shop features.
For supported online sales, returns, exchanges, and combined checkout, retain the same request when a response is lost so a confirmed result can be replayed and an unknown outcome stays reviewable.
Review per-shop stock and, where the online store is set up, online variant availability after counter sales.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Shirts, pants, and T-shirts | Style + colour + size + barcode | Purchase, fast billing, size exchange, and low-stock review |
| Saree and ethnic-wear counters | Design name + colour + barcode | GST billing, customer history, returns, and WhatsApp-ready invoice |
| Readymade garment showroom | Style + size + colour + branch | Barcode stock, branch availability, reports, and exchange |
| Multi-store clothing retailer | Variant + shop + GST identity | On multi-shop plans: combined checkout, separate invoices, settlement, and customer balance |
When should a retailer verify the fit first?
- This page covers readymade fashion retail billing and inventory. Retailers needing manufacturing, production planning, or advanced tailoring measurement workflows should verify those separately.
- A store should test its own GST, barcode, printer, WhatsApp, and multi-shop setup in a product demo before migration.
- Retry-safe connected checkout is limited to supported online paths; offline queues, existing drafts or estimates, loyalty or advance flows, and some exchange paths have separate safeguards and should be tested independently.
