The challenge

Star Computer sells hardware to walk-in customers and to other shops on credit, and buys stock from several suppliers. All of this was being tracked in manual records.

Unclear dues

Hard to know which customer owed what, and how much was payable to each supplier.

No real profit figure

Revenue was visible, but the actual profit on each sale wasn't.

Stock mismatches

Sales, purchases and returns didn't update stock in one place.

No staff control

Every staff member could see purchase prices and sensitive figures.

The solution, screen by screen

We built one system around how a computer shop actually works, so every sale, purchase and payment updates stock and accounts automatically.

Star Computer ERP: Sale and purchase point

Sale and purchase point

Fast counter screens for selling to customers and buying from suppliers, with printable PDF invoices.

  • Edit, transfer or return a sale without breaking records
  • Cash, online transfer and cheque payments
  • Invoices carry the business NTN and bank details
Star Computer ERP: Live inventory

Live inventory

Stock moves automatically with every sale, purchase and return, so the count on screen matches the shelf.

  • Opening stock and quantity adjustments
  • Total stock value at a glance
  • Excel and PDF export
Star Computer ERP: Customer and vendor ledgers

Customer and vendor ledgers

A complete running account for every customer and supplier, showing invoices, payments and the balance due.

  • Reschedule payments when a customer asks for more time
  • Settle balances directly when a customer is also a supplier
  • Ledger export to PDF and Excel
Star Computer ERP: Reports and real profit

Reports and real profit

The purchase price is saved on every item sold, so the system shows true profit, not just revenue.

Star Computer ERP: Staff roles and permissions

Staff roles and permissions

The owner decides exactly what each staff member can see and do, across more than 20 separate controls.

  • Control who can edit rates, take payments or open reports
