Verticals → Fashion

The menu group is called Fashion & Tailoring, and it holds nine screens covering clothing, tailoring and jewellery. All nine are real and working — an earlier version of this guide said the whole pack was empty, which is no longer true.

The jewellery screens live in this group. There is no separate jewellery menu.

Do not tick “Jewellery” in Business types

It appears in the picker, but no screen anywhere is attached to it. The jewellery screens come with Fashion & Apparel.

Ticking Jewellery is not harmless — it counts against your plan’s industry limit, so it can block a pack you actually need and produce “You’ve reached your plan’s industry limit.”

Jewellery

The item register

Jewellery Items is a register of individual pieces, kept separately from your catalogue.

1. Go to Verticals → Fashion & Tailoring → Jewellery Items and click New record.
2. Choose the Company and Location — both required, and locked once saved.
3. Enter the SKU and Name, both required.
4. Choose the Metal — Gold, Silver, Platinum or Palladium.
5. Enter the Karat and Purity (‰).
6. Enter the Weight (g). Required — it drives the price quote.
7. Enter the Making charge / g and any Stone value.
8. Add the Certificate number and set In stock.
9. Save.

A jewellery item has no price and is not a catalogue product

There is no price field, and the item is not linked to anything you sell. To take money for a piece you still ring it up as an ordinary product.

The register is for the physical description and the price quote below.

Today’s gold rate, and quoting a piece

1. Go to Gold Rate of Day (the page is headed Gold Rates) and click New record.
2. Choose the Metal, enter the Rate / gram and the Currency.
3. Set the Trading date. It is optional, and you should always fill it in — see below.
4. Save. Rates cannot be edited, only added and deleted.

Then on any jewellery item, use the Price quote row action. It works out:

metal value (weight × today’s rate) + making charge (weight × charge per gram) + stone value.

A rate saved with no trading date overrides every dated rate, permanently

The quote takes the most recent rate, and a rate with no date sorts above all dated ones. Save one without a date and every future quote will use it, however many newer rates you add.

If it happens, delete the undated rate. Always fill the trading date in.

Karat and purity do not affect the quote

Both are recorded and neither is used in the calculation. A 9-carat and a 24-carat piece of the same weight quote identically. Check the metal value yourself on mixed stock.

The rate applies to the whole company, not the branch

The form makes Location required, and the quote ignores it — a rate entered at one branch prices items at every branch of that company.

One label in the quote is wrong

The quote’s “Making charge / g” row shows the total making charge, not the per-gram figure. The same label in the item list is the per-gram figure. They disagree.

If no rate exists for that metal you get “No gold rate found for this metal — showing zero metal value.”

Tailoring

Alteration Tickets is a job card for a garment.

1. Click New record and choose the Company and Location.
2. Pick the Customer, or type a Walk-in customer name and Phone.
3. Assign the Tailor.
4. Set the Pickup date and the Charge.
5. Describe the garment, and fill in the Instructions — this is required.
6. Save. The ticket starts as New.

Move it along with Change status: New, In progress, Ready, Collected or Cancelled.

The charge is never collected

An alteration ticket does not become a sale. The Charge is a number on the job card that nothing reads — no invoice, no till entry, no debt.

Ring the work up separately when the customer collects, or you will do the job for nothing.

Any status can jump to any other

There are no rules — a Collected ticket can be set back to New. The list offers all five every time.

Fitting rooms

Fitting Rooms records each room with a Number (required), a Name and a Capacity, and tracks it as Free, Occupied, Cleaning or Out of service via Change status.

That is the whole feature — it is a status board you keep by hand. There is no way to record who is in a room or for how long.

Merchandising

Collections groups a range by season: a Name (required), a Season — Spring/ Summer, Autumn/Winter, Resort, Cruise, Holiday, Pre-fall or Evergreen — a Season year, a Theme and launch dates.

Products cannot be put into a collection

Nothing anywhere assigns a product to a collection. A collection is only used as a label on a line sheet or a markdown rule.

To group products for real, use classification.

The Collections form shows raw text instead of its title

Opening the form shows apparel.merchandising.addTitle as the dialog heading, and deleting shows the same kind of text in the confirmation. It is a wiring mistake, not something you have done wrong.

The form works normally otherwise.

Size Charts stores a Name, a Style name, a Unit (Centimeters or Inches) and a Measurements (JSON) box.

A size chart is a standalone note

Nothing reads it — it is never attached to a product or shown to a shopper, and the measurements box is free text that is never checked. Keep it as a reference for staff.

Customer Measurements records a customer’s measurements — bust, chest, waist, hip, inseam, outseam, height, weight, shoulder, sleeve, neck, shoe size, ring size — plus a Preferred fit of Slim, Regular, Relaxed or Oversized. The Customer is required and cannot be changed afterwards.

The Customer column on that list shows an internal code, not a name, and the search box matches that code. Find people another way.

Markdown rules and line sheets

Markdown rules change no prices

Markdown Rules has a full form — a target stage, a product, category or collection, a percent off or a fixed price, a priority and a “trigger days on shelf” — and it saves correctly.

Nothing reads any of it. No price changes, at the till or anywhere else, ever.

Only Company and Location are required, so you can save a rule that targets nothing and discounts nothing without a single warning.

For real discounting use pricing, which works.

Line Sheets (the menu calls them Wholesale Line Sheets) records a wholesale offer: a Name, a Collection, a Currency, a Season year, a Minimum order qty, Payment terms and effective dates.

A line sheet cannot hold any products

There is no way to add lines to it from the app. It is a header with no contents.

Setup order

1. Company and location — required everywhere.
2. Gold rate before quoting any jewellery item.
3. Collections before line sheets or collection-based markdown rules.
4. Catalogue products and categories before product- or category-based markdown rules.
5. Customers before alteration tickets and measurements.
6. Employees before assigning a tailor.

Jewellery items, size charts and fitting rooms need nothing beyond company and location.

Other things to know

Export produces no file on all nine screens.

Company and Location look editable when you edit and are not.

Several boxes are free text where you would expect a list — currency on a gold rate and a line sheet, and payment terms.

Menu labels differ from page titles: “Gold Rate of Day” opens “Gold Rates”, “Wholesale Line Sheets” opens “Line sheets”.
