Torgsoft modes and options that simplify book business

Book store

The automation system from Torgsoft will help organize efficient book product accounting and optimize business processes:

Accounting for the assortment of the bookstore

  • Book product accounting. Books received from the publisher to the bookstore are accounted for in batches — this allows for easy tracking of product movement for each delivery and analyzing sales volumes depending on the edition or print run.

  • Book nomenclature. In Torgsoft, you can add any option for convenient product accounting and search. You can create an organized book catalog by adding various types, for example, by genre: “Fiction”, “Children's books”, “Psychology and parenting”. 

Books can be grouped by author, series, publisher, language, age parameters, new arrivals, bestsellers, book format (electronic, paper), etc. By adding product characteristics, it can be easily found in the accounting program or online store using filters.

Book barcoding

  • Book barcoding. Each batch of books or specific edition can be assigned a unique barcode, ensuring accurate entry of products into the system, sales control, and inventory tracking. The program allows for serial accounting of book products, tracking sales of specific series, publishers, and even individual print runs. This simplifies receiving, inventory, sales, and helps avoid errors.

Balance control and inventory

The program tracks the stock of book products both in the warehouse and in stores, and includes functions such as: 

  • Book inventory management. Torgsoft allows you to control stock levels and replenish book inventory on time. The program automatically tracks the number of books in the warehouse, keeping information about each transaction. 

  • Additional option Automatic stock calculation allows entrepreneurs to see in real-time how to reduce book procurement costs and how much stock is needed in the warehouse to avoid an excess of unpopular books and ensure the constant availability of bestsellers. 

  • Regular inventory checks help avoid shortages, mismatches, unnecessary costs, and fraud by sellers. Thanks to barcoding, you can instantly get data on the number of books from each publisher in the warehouse or store.

  • Supplier order creation. The program has an automatic ordering function for book print runs from suppliers or publishers. You can create an automatic order for books from the publisher to replenish the stock, taking into account the minimum stock level. 

  • Stock accounting across multiple warehouses: if you have several retail locations or warehouses, the Torgsoft program allows you to easily manage the stock of goods at all locations. You will always know exactly where each book is, which greatly simplifies logistics and product redistribution.

Assembly and disassembly of goods

Product bundling

Bookstores and publishers often sell books in bundles, such as series of books by a certain author, or form book sets by various authors on the same topic (sports, dietology, collections of love stories, horror classics, gift book sets, promotional bundles, etc.). This works well both for increasing sales volumes and raising the average order value.  

Additionally, bookstores often unbundle book series, trilogies, or tetralogies by one author into individual editions, united by a common theme. If the seller has stocked the entire series, the Torgsoft program allows selling individual copies from the series, deducting the required amount. Conversely, it also allows creating book sets from individual items. 

Here's how the sale of bundled products works in Torgsoft:
