Short answer

What it means to implement an accounting program

Torgsoft implementation is the sequential transfer of goods, stock balances, and store operating rules into the accounting program. A completed implementation makes it possible to process sales and returns, control the warehouse and cash desk, separate employee access rights, receive reports, and keep backup copies of data.

First, the accounting foundation is configured: goods, stock balances, users, and daily operations. Equipment, online sales, and additional options are connected according to the needs of a specific business. Fiscalization is the generation of a fiscal receipt and the transfer of settlement transaction data to the State Tax Service.

1

Goods and stock balances match the actual data

Each product has a clear category, name, price, barcode, and correct quantity in stock.

2

Main operations have been checked

Goods receipt, sale, return, transfer, and inventory correctly change stock balances, the cash desk, and reports.

3

Employees have the required rights

The salesperson works at the cash desk, the merchandiser works with goods, and the owner sees management data.

4

Data is protected

Backups are created regularly and stored separately from the working computer.

Before installation

What to prepare before automating a store

A short business description will help you choose the right program version, equipment, and setup sequence. Appoint one responsible person who will collect the initial data, agree on the work rules, and accept the result of each stage.

Trade format

Retail, wholesale, online sales, warehouse, production, or a combination of several processes.

Stores and workplaces

The number of outlets, cash desks, computers, employees, and places from which the owner will work with data. Define the work scheme: one computer, a local network, a remote server, or Torgsoft-Online.

Product data

Where names, item numbers, barcodes, prices, characteristics, and stock balances are currently stored.

Payment and fiscalization

Cash, cards, and transfers at each cash desk. If fiscal receipts are required, define the software RRO or fiscal register and prepare the registration data in advance.

Employee roles

Who receives goods, changes prices, sells, processes returns, and views finances.

External services

Online store, marketplaces, delivery services, bank terminal, and other integrations.

Work during outages

Determine whether backup power for the computer and router, backup internet, and a separate sales procedure during interruptions are needed.

Solution composition

What is needed for launch and what is connected as needed

1

Mandatory foundation

A Windows computer or Torgsoft-Online, the Torgsoft program, product catalog, checked stock balances, users, backups, and daily work rules.

2

Equipment according to the process

A scanner, label printer, receipt printer, scales, cash drawer, or data collection terminal are not needed by every business.

3

Fiscalization and card payments

PRRO, a fiscal register, and integration with a bank terminal are connected according to payment methods and legal requirements for a specific business. The need for fiscalization and tax settings must be checked with an accountant or tax consultant.

4

Expansion after launch

Online store, marketplaces, delivery, customer tools, mobile work, and chain automation are added to stable accounting.

Practical principle: connect a function when the process, responsible employee, and result to be controlled have been defined. Additional options are paid separately unless otherwise stated in the terms of a specific version or offer.

  • analyze goods without movement and shortages;
  • check integration errors;
  • review employee action history and access rights;
  • investigate discrepancies for several selected products.

Monthly

  • check compliance with the established inventory schedule;
  • analyze profit, expenses, and turnover;
  • check the assortment and purchasing rules;
  • review roles of dismissed and new employees.
Typical mistakes

What most often complicates automation

All old data is transferred without checking

Duplicates, outdated cards, and different naming rules move into the new system. First clean the test part of the catalog and agree on a single standard.

Equipment is bought before describing the cash desk process

Device compatibility does not mean that it is needed by a specific store. Define the goods, label format, receipt type, cash desk load, and payment method.

All employees are given the same rights

Each role must receive the minimum necessary access. Separate accounts also make it possible to determine who created or changed an operation.

Real sales begin without a test return

A sale checks only part of the process. Before launch, process a return, change the payment method, cancel an erroneous action, and close the cash desk day.

Test documents are left in the working database

Test sales, receipts, and returns change stock balances, the cash desk, and reports. Before launch, cancel or delete test operations, then reconcile the data again.

Operations continue in two systems without an agreed transition

Define the exact date and time of the transition. After the final transfer, all new sales, receipts, returns, and transfers must be carried out in one working system.

The archive is stored on the same disk

A disk failure or encryption will destroy the working database together with the copy. Store external archives separately and check recovery.

Many additional options are connected immediately

First stabilize goods, stock balances, the cash desk, and daily operations. Add the next function after defining the task, responsible person, and control result.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about Torgsoft implementation

How long does it take to implement an accounting program?

The duration depends on the number of goods, the quality of source data, retail outlets, equipment, and integrations. The basic setup of a small store can be started on the installation day, while transferring a large database or chain requires a separate plan.

Will the data be saved after the demo version ends?

Yes. Goods, stock balances, customers, settings, and created documents remain in the database on the computer. After activating a commercial license, you can continue working without re-entering information. Before launch, check that test operations do not affect real stock balances, the cash desk, or reports.

Can goods and customers be transferred from Excel?

Yes, Torgsoft provides data import from Excel. Before transfer, you need to agree on the column structure, remove duplicates, check a test part of the file, and separately define the date of the final transfer of current stock balances.

Which equipment must be bought?

The main program runs on a Windows computer. A scanner, printers, scales, cash drawer, and other devices are chosen according to the goods and sales process. Before buying, check the compatibility of the specific model.

What needs to be prepared for work with PRRO?

First check with an accountant or tax consultant whether fiscalization is required for your activity. For Software RRO, you need a valid qualified electronic signature, a registered business unit, PRRO and cashiers, correct tax rates, and receipt details.

Does Torgsoft work on a smartphone or tablet?

The main Torgsoft program runs on Windows. For Android and iOS, there is a separate option «Torgsoft Mobile App», which connects a smartphone or tablet to the main accounting system.

What happens to sales if the internet disappears?

A locally installed program can perform main accounting operations without internet access. The Terminal Version cash desk works with a remote server; for sales during a connection loss, a separate option «Torgsoft-Hybrid» is provided. A power outage requires separate backup power for the computer, cash desk equipment, and router.

Do all additional options need to be bought immediately?

No. Each option must have a specific task. First configure basic accounting, then connect fiscalization, a website, delivery, customer tools, or other integrations. Additional options are mostly paid separately, but almost all required features can be activated in advance for 30 days for testing. The exception is «Deleting statistics of closed periods».

Where can I get help during setup?

Use lessons for beginners, the user manual, and technical support. During the first activation of the demo version, up to 2 hours of free support are available within 30 days. After this time is used up or the 30-day period ends, support is provided under the current paid terms.

Start with the demo version and your own implementation plan

Test Torgsoft on your goods, create a list of required workplaces, and go through the route from data preparation to the first control day.
