Welcome to the Billezo Help Center & Comprehensive Guide! Here you'll find extensive, step-by-step instructions and answers to all questions regarding the usage, features, troubleshooting, and advanced settings of the Billezo mobile application. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. GETTING STARTED & ACCOUNT SETUP ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Q: How do I create and set up my shop profile? A: 1. Download Billezo and register using your mobile number or email. 2. Verify via OTP (One-Time Password). 3. Once logged in, complete your Shop Profile with your shop name, owner name, business type, and address. 4. You can also provide an optional GSTIN which will be printed on all generated invoices for compliance. 5. To update these details later, navigate to Settings → Shop Profile. Q: How does Guest Mode work? A: Guest Mode lets you explore all features instantly without registering. You can try Billezo's full capabilities and register at any time to transition your shop profile and save your data permanently. Q: How do I manage multiple staff members or devices? A: With our multi-device sync plans, you can log in to multiple devices simultaneously. The cloud-sync feature ensures that all stock updates and bills generated from Device A will instantly reflect on Device B. You can monitor all active sessions under Settings → Active Devices. Q: How does the Active Devices tracker identify my phone? A: The Active Devices page lists all terminals currently logged into your account. The device you are currently holding is dynamically highlighted as "This Device" based on your current request token. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 2. INVENTORY & PRODUCT MANAGEMENT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Q: How do I add a new product? A: 1. Go to the "Products" tab on the bottom navigation bar. 2. Tap the floating "+" (Add Product) button. 3. Enter the Product Name, Selling Price, and Category. 4. Set the current Stock Quantity or toggle the "Unlimited Stock" option. 5. Tap Save. Q: How do I link products to raw materials (subunit recipes)? A: Open the Add/Edit Product form and toggle the "Utilise Inventory Items" option under the "Stock & Raw Materials" section. You can search and map any raw material item and specify the exact quantity needed (supporting decimal values like 0.25 kg or 150 grams) for each product sale. [Unique Feature]: Billezo automatically links sales to raw material levels up to 3 decimal places. For example, if you sell a finished cup of tea, the system automatically subtracts 100 ml of milk, 15 grams of sugar, and 10 grams of tea leaves from your stock. You get real-time raw material usage tracking without needing to manually count loose stock at the end of the day. Q: What happens when stock reaches zero? A: If a product is not marked as "Unlimited Stock", Billezo will prevent you from adding it to a new bill once the inventory reaches zero. You will see an "Out of Stock" badge on the product list. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 3. BILLING, INVOICES & SHARING ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Q: How do I generate a professional digital bill?

This will automatically convert the invoice into a high-quality, professional image (including your shop logo and UPI QR code) and open WhatsApp. Q: How does Table-based billing work? A: You can toggle between Normal and Table-based billing at the top of the New Bill screen.

Go to the "Udhaari" tab from the bottom navigation. 2. You will see a list of all customers who owe you money, along with the total outstanding balance at the top of the screen. 3.
