Regulars buy on credit all month and settle on payday — and the notebook is the only record.
A ledger per regular, a bill that posts to it automatically, and a WhatsApp reminder a few days before payday.
Pick your business type when you sign up and SmartKhata starts with categories and defaults that fit — you are not staring at an empty app.
Pick your business type at sign-up and SmartKhata starts with categories and defaults that match it. Below is the specific problem each type usually brings, and what the app does about it.
Regulars buy on credit all month and settle on payday — and the notebook is the only record.
A ledger per regular, a bill that posts to it automatically, and a WhatsApp reminder a few days before payday.
High volume, thin margins, and fast movers that run out without warning.
Fast tap-to-bill, stock that comes down as you sell, and a top-items view so you reorder what actually moves.
Long item lists, repeat customers, and bills people need to keep for claims.
Bulk-import your item list once, then issue numbered invoices you can share as a PDF.
Table after table at peak, and a bill that has to be right the first time.
A product grid built for speed, so whoever is on the floor can ring up a table in seconds.
Nearly everything goes out on credit and the receivables list only grows.
Receivables aging that shows which debts are going bad, and scheduled reminders that chase them for you.
Hundreds of SKUs, many priced per unit, and cash tied up in slow movers.
Cost and selling price per item, stock movements you can trace, and a cash book that shows where the money went.
You invoice after the work, then spend weeks following up.
Issue an invoice, watch it sit in the due list, and send a statement link instead of a third phone call.
The business type only sets your starting categories — nothing is locked to it, and you can change it later from your business settings.
