Get Started Free Explore Features

The Hardware & Building Materials module serves hardware stores, paint shops, and building supply dealers. It handles the complexity of multi-unit products — selling paint by liter or gallon, cement by bag or ton — with automatic unit conversion.

Generate tax invoices, delivery notes, and quotations for contractors and builders. Service items like cutting or fitting can be added to invoices alongside physical products. Multi-godown support lets you manage stock across warehouses.

With supplier management, customer credit tracking, and gate-pass controlled dispatches, your hardware business runs efficiently from procurement to delivery.
