What it does

Hippo chews through incoming sales files and generates invoices, tendering them and updating inventory as it goes.

It is the answer to the recurring question of what to do with a feed of sales that happened somewhere other than your own till.

  • Bulk import of invoices and orders
  • Tenders as it goes, and updates inventory in the same pass
  • Built for volume rather than one-at-a-time entry
