Chapter 1
I sell clothes. What is this thing?
Not an accounting program you have to learn, and not a till that only rings up sales — something in between, built to run a real shop without asking you to become a bookkeeper first.
Wherever a trained accountant would have a standard answer — how to value what is on the shelf, how to set up the books, which account a sale belongs in — the system already picked one and moved on, because you have no accountant standing beside you asking these questions and you should not need one to start selling. Where the answer genuinely depends on your own judgement — is this expense really for the business, what should this customer be charged — nothing is decided for you; you are asked, and told what the choice affects.
What this means for you on day one
You will not be asked to set anything up twice. Once you have told the system who you are and what you sell, it remembers — the next screen already knows your currency, your tax rules, and which shop you are in, so it never asks again.
And nothing here needs to be perfect before you start. Every number you enter today can be corrected later, and the following chapters in this guide say exactly what is safe to leave until you have more time.
