Starting accounting in a store: preparation and launch from scratch

The Need

• Lack of structured accounting of goods and stock.
• No understanding of what equipment and license are needed.
• Need to prepare the cash register for fiscalization.

Reasons

• Lack of basic technical infrastructure (PC, peripherals).
• Initial steps not performed: product categories, initial stock, labeling.

Prepare the hardware

Minimum set for one cash register:

• Computer / Laptop: Windows 10 / 11 (Win 7/8 allowed but not recommended), CPU 2+ cores, 8 GB RAM, SSD.
• Barcode scanner: For sales and inventory.
• Receipt printer: Width 57 mm or 80 mm (receipts or fiscal checks).
• Label printer: For labeling goods without barcodes.

Choose a program license

• Start: One cash register, basic accounting, no network.
• Ultra: Full functionality, local network operation.
• Terminal: For store chains (operation via the Internet).

Perform initial setup

• Install Torgsoft.
• Specify store name, accounting currency, configure roles (Seller/Owner).

Systematize and enter goods

• Create a product category tree.
• Perform stock-in (manually or import from Excel).
• Print labels.

Configure fiscalization and payments

• Software RRO (PRRO): connect key (.dat/.jks/.zs2), register the cash register with the State Tax Service via the program.
• Bank terminal: configure protocol (JSON/EFTPOS) for receipt amount transmission.
