Keep Consignment and Sale-or-Return Straight

Copy

I take stock on sale or return from local makers and settling up is a nightmare. Build me a consignment app. Keep consignors with their contact details, agreed commission rate and payment terms. Every consigned item records the consignor, the description, the agreed retail price, the date received and its status of In Stock, Sold, Returned or Written Off. Never include consigned stock in my own stock value. When an item sells, attribute it to the consignor at that moment and work out my commission and the amount owed to them. Produce a settlement statement per consignor per period listing items sold, the retail value, my commission and the amount payable. Add an AI agent that drafts each settlement statement with a short covering note, and that tells me which consignors sell through well and which items have been sitting unsold long enough to return. Automate two things: a scheduled monthly settlement run, and a notice to a consignor when an item has been unsold past an agreed period. Two logins: staff who receive and sell items, and an owner who settles and sets commission rates.

Keep Consignment and Sale-or-Return Straight

Track stock you hold but do not own, attribute sales to each owner, and calculate commission and settlements.

// the spark catches · intelligence awakens · the answer unfolds

Consignment stock is somebody else's property on your shelf. This tracks whose it is, what sold, and what you owe, so settlement is a report rather than an argument.

What's Included

  • Ownership held on every item so your own stock value stays honest.
  • Sales attributed to the owner automatically as they happen.
  • Commission worked out at each supplier agreed rate.
  • An assistant that drafts each settlement statement.

How To Use

  1. Never mix consigned stock into owned stock value. It is not yours.
  2. Attribute every sale at the point of sale, not at settlement.
  3. Settle on a fixed schedule. Ad hoc settlement damages relationships.
  4. Track sell-through per supplier so you can curate what you take.

Hold it in multi-store inventory, and pay out through invoicing prompts.
