Multi-Store Sales & Branch Inventory Sync

Branch sales transactions instantly decrement branch inventory to eliminate stock drift.

Retail businesses operating multiple physical branches or outlets while managing a central warehouse face constant inventory drift. Spike Console connects your branch sales desks with your central warehouse on a unified inventory ledger (with online storefront sync coming soon).

Execution Velocity

Manual drag vs automated execution

The Old Manual Drag
  • ×An in-store customer buys the last item at Branch A; staff at Branch B are completely unaware.
  • ×Staff scrambling to apologize and issue refunds because inventory was double-sold.
  • ×Branch managers having no idea what stock is sitting in other branch locations.
  • ×End-of-day register reconciliation taking 2 hours of counting paper receipts.
With Spike Scheduled Jobs
  • ✓A sales order at any branch instantly decrements available stock in that branch and central records.
  • ✓If inventory reaches zero in a branch, counts update across central records immediately; online storefront sync is coming soon.
  • ✓Sales staff can check live stock in sister branches and initiate inter-branch transfer chits in one tap.
  • ✓Daily register closing reconciles cash in drawer, card settlements, and bank transfers automatically.
