Have just received the following (lightly edited) enquiry. Any recommendations? Any systems you’d advise against?
Some time ago we opened a bookstall at our church, which has now become more than a bookstall, more of a bookshop, with another small bookstall at another worship centre in the parish. The parish auditors have asked for a more formalised system of stock control than we currently have.
We are looking for a portable system that can be loaded onto a laptop, in conjunction with a hand held scanner, so that we are able to use it at both sites, as the bookshop is open in the mornings and some evenings in the week and the bookstall is only open on a Sunday evening. Do you know of any system that might be suitable?
I see no reason why Merlio’s CPOS system shouldn’t work from a laptop. It is the system we use at St Pauls, which more than adequately serves our needs. See http://www.merlio.com and contact mike@merlio.com
