Contractor Options
Allowance AmountIf your contractors set allowances for their clients for their project, HardwarePOS can track this for you. For example, a contractor may allow $1000 for the lighting in a specific house they are building for a client. HardwarePOS will record the allowance, so that when the customer comes into the store to pick out their lighting fixtures, the system will tally up the total value of the items they choose and inform the sales clerk of how much they owe after the allowance has been used up. Delivery ScheduleAt any point during the sale, you can set the delivery date for your customer. Once you set the delivery date, an appointment is created in the delivery scheduler. Each delivery that is scheduled can be assigned to a specific employee, and will remind them of the delivery date and time. Job CostingHelp your contractors by creating "jobs" for them in the system. When they purchase from you, each invoice can be attached to a specific job (or project). At the end of the job, you can run reports on the job, such as income and expense reports, allowing your customer to examine the profitability of each of the jobs.
