Apparel Distributors Order Entry and Inventory Count

Apr 13, 2005 2 Replies

Can any one recommend an add-on for clothing distributors. We sell each style in multiple sizes and would prefer to enter transactions like this.


1100 Sweat Grey 2-3-4-5-6

where the number sequence is small, med, large, x-large, xx-large. But the catch is, we would want to track inventory by size. So depending on the product, the column values may change to xxl-3xl-4xl etc. Apparently, this is how the apparal industry has standardized their order forms.



Thank you, Fred Jacobowitz


Hi Fred,

The POS system that I work with has the capability of doing this, so I am sure there are other programs that can do it. Actually this program might work just fine for you. This particular program works by creating an initial inventory item, 1100 Sweat Grey, and then you create a product variant that has all the sizes you might want to inventory/sell. You can sell by item code, and it prompts for the size and/or color (multiple variants per item). This system does sales and inventory outside of QuickBooks, and you just transfer end of day info. Also will keep track of inventory by FIFO, LIFO, or avg cost (QB only does average)

Let me know if you want more info, be happy to send it.

Gary - Please send information about your POS system. It sounds very interesting. I tried to email you direct but got a "Deliver has failed Notification. Thank you, Fred Jacobowitz snipped-for-privacy@optonline.net
