Stock Radar reads the paper a shop already has — supplier invoices, till rolls, card statements — and turns it into costs, margins and tax. Here is exactly where that fits.
Nothing to configure beyond your own shelves. Shops whose goods arrive on an invoice and leave over a counter.
The founding trade — every screen was built against a real one.
Same shape of business, different vocabulary and tax.
Dry and packaged goods. See the note on fresh, below.
Case in, bottle out — the unit maths this was written for.
Tobacco is a tax class of its own, and already handled.
The retail half — the counter, not the prescriptions.
Everything about buying, costing and margins works. Each of these has one specific thing it cannot yet tell you — named plainly, so nobody finds out after signing up.
Buying, costs, suppliers and margins all work. But a style is one product, not a size run — it cannot tell you the mediums sold and the smalls didn’t.
Costs, margins and a waste log all work. There is no expiry date, no shelf-life countdown, no “sell these first”.
Fine on the buying side. Per-title sales are not tracked one by one.
Not a matter of settings. These businesses turn what they buy into something else, and that arithmetic is not written.
You buy flour and sell a cake. A bought ingredient cannot be carried into a sold dish, so cost and revenue never meet.
The money is in labour and time. This measures goods.
Parts in, product out is a different kind of book altogether.
A shop is set up in its own place, with its own sales tax and rules — not translated into someone else’s. Five places are supported today; more as the product grows.
GST & QST, the consigne, Loto-Québec.
State & local sales tax, CRV.
State & local tax, the bottle bill.
State & local tax rules.
VAT at 20%, and shelf prices that include it. The VAT return itself is not finished yet.
The demo is a real shop you can click through — switch roles, open the menu, step into a category.
