PRACTICAL POS GUIDE · KENYACatalogue setup for upholstery service POS in Kenya
This guide to catalogue setup for upholstery service explains the daily checks. Prepare the upholstery service catalogue before the first sale: choose the selling unit, separate similar items and enter counted opening stock. This guide uses Chair cover fitting, Cushion refill service and Sofa cleaning unit as examples.
Catalogue setup for upholstery service: decide what one quantity means
Use a defined finished item or agreed fixed labour charge, with materials sold separately where appropriate.
Define the service being charged and its fixed unit. Recording one service sale does not reserve an appointment, create a job card or track an item left for repair.
A starter catalogue to adapt
The figures below are illustrative preset prices, not market quotations. They do not describe your stock. Replace them before trading.
| Item or service | Sale unit | Sample KES price | Opening count |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chair cover fitting | slot | 1,200 | Count actual units |
| Cushion refill service | task | 800 | Count actual units |
| Sofa cleaning unit | task | 1,500 | Count actual units |
| Dining chair re-cover labour | task | 1,800 | Count actual units |
| Cushion cover standard piece | task | 450 | Count actual units |
| Zip fitting labour per cushion | task | 250 | Count actual units |
Load and rehearse in this order
- Check that Chair cover fitting has a clear name, unit, price and unique item code.
- Distinguish Cushion refill service from Chair cover fitting; a similar name must not hide a different pack.
- Count usable Chair cover fitting units and record that physical opening quantity.
- On sample records, sell two Chair cover fitting units and confirm only that item reduces by two.
- Review the receipt and backup before entering real business records.
Correct the catalogue without hiding a stock difference
If Chair cover fitting was named incorrectly, correct the name. If its quantity is wrong, investigate the count and record an explained adjustment. Editing a price or changing a description does not explain missing units. Keep old transactions readable when deciding how to rename an item.
