Killer POS Features for Furniture Stores:

Special Orders

Manage Special Orders, or the sale of items not currently in stock.  You can mark an item as a special order item at the time its sold, which places it on a list of special order items in the purchasing module.  When the item is received from the vendor, MicroBiz alerts the user that the item is attached to a customer order, so that the customer can be contacted and the item can be set aside for pick-up or shipment.

Quotes, Layaways and Deliveries

Manage sales of items not taken immediately from store.  You can attach a customer, change status, set a due date, define a handling type, print pick-up slips and add notes.  Customer orders can be transferred to the register so that payment can be made and ‘cash and carry’ items can be sold on the same receipt.  Items can be managed as layaways with multiple payments.  Orders can be managed with handling type (ship, delivery, store pick-up), assigned employee and due date.
