Six parts of one system, each with its honest status.

Billing that keeps its books straight.

Bills, kitchen tickets, cash and day-end, in whole paise on the shop's own PC.

• Dine-in, takeaway and delivery bills, with kitchen tickets per kitchen section.
• Pay by cash, UPI, card, split or part-paid; dues and advances; a bill before paying.
• Returns are numbered credit notes. A sale is never edited.
• Price per order type, with history, and Excel in and out for the menu.
• Day-end count that starts empty, note by note, with payouts, loans and chits recorded.
• Pending: one inbox for everything that waits on you.

Not yet: captain phones, scan-and-order, a kitchen screen, several tills sharing one shop, e-bills, delivery-app orders, and the full reports shelf. A list of tested receipt printers is not published yet.

Ask in plain words. See the working.

The analyst we use every day on our own café's sales.

• Every number can show how it was worked out and which dates it covers.
• A day with no data is “unknown”, never ₹0. Averages divide by days that have data.
• It will not compare two periods whose coverage differs.
• It looks your data up before it answers, and shows what it looked up. Anything that would change data is refused.
• When only you know why a number moved, it asks once and remembers.

Know this: to word an answer, Insights sends your question and the figures it looked up to an external AI service. Today it reads the café's existing billing exports and, through a bridge that is built, Sorto's own books. An assistant inside the till is in progress.

Attendance to payslip.

PayrollPro is a separate app today, in use at our café. Joining it to Sorto is planned.

• Employees, a daily attendance calendar and register.
• Monthly, weekly and daily-wage payroll, with overtime, deductions and advances.
• Finalise a payroll, or amend it, with an audit trail.
• Log payments by bank or cash, including part payments; print payslips.
• Roles for admin, manager and accountant.
• Statutory contributions come from your own set-up. The software contains no built-in rates.

Not yet: salaries paid through Sorto's books and one shared list of people across the apps. Both are planned.

Know what a dish really costs.

From the supplier's bill to profit on every dish, in the same books as the till.

• Items, entries and counts; suppliers' bills and what is due.
• Recipes, use, wastage and staff food.
• Expiry, a to-buy list and a “3 left” warning.
• Profit per dish from the stock cost. A dish with no cost recorded says so, and is never shown as ₹0 cost.
• Excel in and out.

Store credit now; the rest is on the way.

Customers are held by a number of their own, not by their phone number.

• A customer record and a store-credit wallet, switched off until a shop turns it on.

Not yet: wallet top-up, gift vouchers, points and loyalty, customer messages by WhatsApp or SMS, and a customer list for campaigns. All are planned.

Connections you can see and test.

Payments, delivery apps, messaging and accounting, each with a plain state.

• Each connection shows Ready, Waiting, Needs you or Failing, with a free Test button.
• Keys are locked to the shop PC.
• Every outgoing call is written to a log the owner can read.

Not yet: nothing is connected to a real partner yet. See the plain status of each.
