Overview
Welcome to the ASAS documentation — a system for running point-of-sale, inventory, sales, purchasing, and accounting for your business. This guide covers every major function in the order you'll actually need it: initial setup, day-to-day operations, then tracking and analysis through reports.
Initial Setup
- Logging In — accessing the system and your account for the first time.
- Navigating the Interface — the core UI pieces: the sidebar, the branch switcher, the dashboard.
- Branches — adding your company's branches and their settings (POS, invoices).
- Users, Roles & Permissions — who uses the system and what they can do.
Products & Inventory
The starting point before any sale or purchase: Creating a Product with its units, pricing, and barcode, organizing it into Categories, and distributing it across Warehouses per branch. Track quantities via the Stock Movements Ledger, Stock Transfers, and Inventory Adjustments. For manufacturers: Recipes (BOM) and Production Orders.
Point of Sale (POS)
The fast front-line interface for serving customers directly: POS Basics & Layout, Making a Sale, Returns, Held Orders, and Keyboard Shortcuts to move quickly during busy periods.
Sales & Purchasing
For managing invoices outside the POS (account customers, credit invoices): Creating a Sale Invoice and Creating a Purchase Invoice, along with Customers and Suppliers and their records, plus Customer Payments and Supplier Payments to settle balances.
Treasury & Accounts
The accounting core of the system: the Chart of Accounts, Account Transfers, and Journal Entries that are generated automatically from every sale, purchase, or payment — no manual accounting entry required.
Reports
For analyzing performance after operations are complete: dedicated reports for Customers, Suppliers, Sales, Purchases, Products, Profit, and the formal financial statements in Treasury & Accounting Reports, plus the Dashboard & KPI Widgets you see the moment you open a company.
