Charts are powerful tools that can help you make strategic or tactical decisions about your business. Using the power of charts you can identify if your business is growing or sliding. If you need to advertise more or you need to improve your quality and customer support.

There are three types of charts in Geelus:

1. Order chart
2. New clients chart
3. New versus returning client orders chart

Note: Charts access is limited to the people with “Owner” role because of the sensitivity of the data.

This chart shows you the amount of your orders for each service you provide on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Most of our clients provide multiple services like dry cleaning and alterations service. Using the combined chart feature, they can see the progress of all their business in all services at a glance.

Regardless of you having a dry cleaning business, a sewing business or an alterations business, this definitely is one of the most time and money saving tools you must have.

In today’s busy world with so much to do, it’s very common to forget or procrastinate collecting the orders forever. These are orders that you have already spent your time and resources on them and expect a return on your investment (in case you haven’t charged the client in advanced). If your clients procrastinate picking up their orders, there is a considerable chance of they never come. You either need to call them, send them SMS or some how communicate with them.

People used this service are trilled with the result and love this feature. You can see part of what we hear everyday from our clients in the testimonials page.

Once you mark an order for email or SMS notification, when all the outstanding orders from a client is set as done, the application will prompt you to send email or SMS notification.

The SMS or email is absolutely configurable to meet your needs.

Have your clients measured using the Geelus graphical measurements tool and save it or print it using the thermal printer you already use for invoicing.

If you would like to print the measurement and provide it to your client, Geelus uses your thermal invoice printer to print the measures. No extra printer is required.

Geelus has been optimized to be touch friendly. You can enter all the client orders without using your keyboard and only by using the touch screen keyboard provided. However, if your system is not touch enabled, it’s also designed to work with your keyboard and mouse.

Geelus automatically tracks an order from the second you submit it. Every interaction with the system requires users to put their pin number.

Using this technique, you will always know who submitted the order, who charged the client, who worked on the order, who completed the order and finalized the transaction at the end and exactly on what date and time.

We take data security and privacy seriously. To keep your data safe from unauthorized access, you will need to select a user “Role” when creating a new user in your system.

There are three roles to select:

1. Employee – no edit capability
2. Manager – limited edit (configurable)
3. Owner – unlimited access

Employees and Managers are limited in viewing the reports and editing/deleting the orders. They also cannot see the charts and edit the time sheet data. Owners on the other hand have unlimited access and can create other users (using “Employee”, “Manager” and “Owner” role).

Geelus alert system will notifies the owners if any order is deleted by an “Employee” or “Manager”. The owner can decide to permanently delete the order or restore the order back into the system.

As soon as you send marketing emails to a large number of people, your email is considered as spam and does not get delivered.

To ensure the delivery of your marketing emails, you need to make sure you use the right system. Using the right system not only ensures the delivery but also gives you options to automate your whole marketing system.

Following are some of the features that a right email marketing system must have:

• High delivery rate

Geelus supports multiple payments and different payment methods on each order.

e.g. your client chooses to pay half of the total amount when drop off and the rest upon pick up. He/She would like to pay the first half using credit card and second half by cash. Using Geelus POS system you can easily handle complicated payments like these, and the data can be viewed easily at any time – broken up into different payment methods.

You can create as many payment methods as you like and track the payments that use the new payment methods in the report.

To facilitate the use of software especially once the order numbers grow more that five figures, you can use bar code feature to speed up the order/client search.

You can also print an id card for your customers and start entering their orders by scanning their card.

This feature can greatly help building customer loyalty in addition to facilitating the order/client search.

All bar code scanners are supported.

Upon placing an order, the system will automatically print a dry cleaning/laundry tag for each item. These types of tickets should be stapled to the garments for the purpose of tracking. The type of paper used is “Wet Strength Paper” to ensure durability throughout the washing and dry cleaning processes.

When the order is submitted, depending on your settings, receipt(s) will be automatically printed from the receipt printer. All data in the receipt is configurable. There are two types of receipts:

• Client receipts includes your business name, address, working hours, website, email, contact details and order details.
• Store receipts includes only the order details to minimize the amount of paper used.

Depending on the configuration, bar code is also printed at the end of each receipt.
