Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, OpSuite can certainly help you manage inventory and track sales of various arts and crafts items. OpSuite is designed to streamline and automate various aspects of your retail operations, including inventory management and sales tracking.

When it comes to inventory management, OpSuite can keep track of your inventory levels by monitoring the stock of each item. When a sale is made, the system automatically deducts the sold quantity from the inventory count, providing you with real-time updates on stock availability. This helps prevent overselling or running out of popular items.

OpSuite also captures and stores sales data, including the specific items sold, quantities and transaction details. This information helps you analyse sales trends, identify popular items and make informed decisions about restocking or introducing new products.

OpSuite has an intuitive interface that is visually appealing. This allows users to quickly locate functions and perform tasks, making it easy to add items to a sale, apply discounts, process payments and manage inventory.

OpSuite also offers customisation of the point-of-sale interface, which can be adapted to the specific needs of your arts and crafts store or franchise. This includes the ability to create item buttons for products that cannot be barcoded and you can even have the available stock quantity displayed on the button if required.

Within OpSuite, you have the ability to create numerous product variations, including items with product dimensions and attributes. OpSuite also allows for different price levels, along with special offer pricing.

OpSuite has built-in barcode labelling functionality for arts and craft stores that require customised labelling, allowing you to create and print customised labels for products. This can include details such as product names, descriptions, prices, barcodes and even images. These features can enhance the presentation and professionalism of your products.

Allowing sales staff to scan barcodes or search for products in the system, OpSuite eliminates manual entry and reduces the chances of errors. This speedier checkout process reduces waiting times for customers, resulting in a more positive and efficient shopping experience.

OpSuite also ensures accurate pricing by retrieving product information and applying the correct prices based on the items scanned. OpSuite’s powerful item module can also handle complex pricing structures, such as multiple pricing tiers or discounts based on customer loyalty or promotions. This eliminates pricing discrepancies and provides customers with confidence in the accuracy of their purchases.

OpSuite can generate digital or printed receipts with detailed information about the transaction, providing customers with a clear record of their purchase. Additionally, if a customer needs to make a return or exchange, the EPoS system can streamline the process by quickly retrieving the transaction details and facilitating the necessary actions making the experience hassle-free for the customer.

OpSuite provides various reports and analytics that can help you make informed business decisions and track the performance of your arts and crafts shop.

By utilising these reports and analytics, you can gain valuable insights into your shop’s performance, identify areas for improvement, make data-driven decisions, optimise inventory management, enhance customer satisfaction and drive overall business growth.

OpSuite reports also help you track specific metrics relevant to your arts and crafts shop and gain deeper insights into particular aspects of your business operations.

Here are some common types of reports and analytics that the system provides:

Sales Reports: These reports provide an overview of your shop’s sales performance, including total sales, sales by date, sales by hour or sales by staff member. They help you identify peak sales periods, measure sales growth over time and analyse sales trends.

Product Performance Reports: These reports give insights into the performance of individual products or product categories. You can identify your best-selling products, analyse their profitability, track inventory turnover and make informed decisions regarding stock levels, pricing and promotions.

Inventory Reports: Inventory reports provide detailed information about your arts and crafts shop’s inventory. You can track stock levels, monitor stock movements, identify slow-moving or overstocked items and set up reorder points. These reports help you optimise your inventory management, avoid stock outages and reduce holding costs.

Customer Reports: Customer reports provide information about your customer base, including customer demographics, purchase history and customer loyalty. You can analyse customer buying patterns, identify loyal customers, tailor marketing campaigns and create targeted promotions to enhance customer retention and increase sales.

Staff Performance Reports: These reports allow you to track individual staff members’ sales performance and productivity. You can measure their sales targets, monitor average transaction values and evaluate their contribution to overall shop performance. This helps you identify top performers, provide targeted training and incentivise sales staff effectively using commission schemes.

Profitability Reports: Profitability reports give you insights into the financial performance of your arts and crafts shop. They provide information about gross profit margins, cost of goods sold, overhead expenses and net profit. By analysing profitability, you can identify areas for cost reduction, assess the viability of products or product categories and make pricing decisions to maximise profitability.

Promotions and Marketing Reports: These reports track the effectiveness of your promotional campaigns and marketing efforts. You can assess the impact of specific promotions, measure customer response and evaluate the return on investment (ROI) of your marketing initiatives. This information helps you refine your marketing strategies and allocate resources effectively.

Customisable Reports: OpSuite offers the ability to generate customised reports based on your specific needs. You can create reports that only show columns that you need and have certain reports emailed to you at a specific time.

As your arts and crafts shop expands to multiple locations, OpSuite can be configured to manage and synchronise operations across all locations. It can provide centralised control over inventory management, pricing, promotions and reporting. With a multi-store EPoS system, you can easily track sales and inventory across different locations, transfer stock between stores and gain an overall view of your business performance.

OpSuite also offers integrations with popular e-commerce platforms such as WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento & BigCommerce, allowing you to expand your arts and crafts shop to online sales channels. These integrations enable synchronisation of inventory, pricing and orders between your physical store and online store. Customers can place orders online, and inventory levels are automatically updated across all sales channels ensuring accurate stock availability information.

By leveraging the scalability of OpSuite, you can effectively manage and expand your arts and crafts store across multiple locations and online sales channels. The system provides centralised control, streamlines operations, ensures inventory accuracy and facilitates data-driven decision-making, ultimately supporting the growth and success of your business.

Security of customer data is paramount, and OpSuite employs various measures to protect against fraudulent activities, especially when processing credit card payments.

Here are some key security features and practices implemented by OpSuite:

User access controls: OpSuite employs user access controls, such as individual user accounts and role-based permissions, to restrict access to sensitive functions and data. This ensures that only authorised personnel can perform specific tasks or access customer data, reducing the risk of internal data breaches.

Compliance with Data Protection Regulations: OpSuite adheres to data protection regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) by utilising opt-in tracking and anonymisation functionality. These regulations govern the collection, storage and processing of customer data, ensuring that EPOS systems handle personal information in a secure and compliant manner.

Regular Software Updates and Patches: Regular software updates and security patches are released for OpSuite to address vulnerabilities and protect against emerging threats. OpSuite’s Integrated card payments are also point-to-point encrypted (PPTP) and fully PCI compliant. This ensures that customer data remains encrypted and protected when it is being transmitted between devices, networks or payment processors.

Absolutely! We offer live online demonstrations of OpSuite and its features. However, to get the most out of your demo, we recommend booking a discovery call with one of our team first.

This way, our experts can find out how your business operates and which features you may need. This is to ensure that your demo is tailored to your specific business.
