Cookie Paraphernalia Store Solves Inventory, Purchasing, and Transaction Problems

Tags: office accounting, spreadsheet, microsoft office, office, excel, pc, warehouse

Overview Keeping mental inventory of 2,000 small items and their rates of sale in the store and from the Web site was making Caryn Truitt, owner of Cookies, frazzled. Cookies is in Ballard, Washington, but storage is at home, so Truitt updated a large Microsoft Excel spreadsheet daily to track what was where. Days became long and errors crept in. Her electronic cash register didn't track items so buying required too much guesswork, especially when a stock-out could alienate Web customers. She acquired Microsoft Dynamics - Point of Sale, which includes Microsoft Office Accounting 2007. Her specific system came with an IBM ThinkCentre PC and retail peripherals.
