Price labels and hang tags can be printed (no barcodes) but entries are not saved in inventory. Print agreements, checks, receipts and settlements using a common printer. Inventory is entered at POS so no automatic discounting of unsold inventory.

Price Discounting

A consignment-software feature that can be useful in resale operations is the Discount Schedule where periods of time and percentages of discount can be set and auto applied to each inventory item. Multiple schedules are possible and can be assigned to individual categories, allowing for very focused discounting of all items. A typical discount schedule is -25% after 30 days, -40% after 60 days, -50% after 90 days. At POS the price entered by the program will be the discounted price and can be edited.

Other features which thrift stores find useful in the software are deductions for purchases by credit card, currency options and police reporting.

Antique resellers saved $4,000,000+ (million) since 2002 by choosing this software!

  4. Click Start.

    Check Now

    If the disk chosen is in use, a message will appear asking if you wish to schedule a scan. Clicking on Schedule disk check will cause the scan to run the next time the computer is restarted.

    Schedule Scan

The scan will take several minutes depending upon the size of the drive and the options set for the scan.

If the problem started just recently and CheckDisk didn't resolve it, try a Windows System Restore (completely safe) which will restore Windows to a previous state when the problem might not have existed. (See Windows Help.)
