Snap a sale

Take a photo of your sales log book or an invoice, and Zalyx turns each line into a sale for you to review and save.

Already wrote your sales down on paper? You don't have to type them in a second time. Snap a photo, and Zalyx reads the page for you.

Snap it

  1. On the Order tab, tap the camera icon next to the search bar.
  2. Tap Take / Choose Photo, then take a photo of your sales log book page or invoice, or choose one from your library.
  3. Zalyx reads the page and lists what it found.

Review before you save

Every line is editable before it becomes a sale:

  • Choose One customer if the whole page was one sale, or Multiple if each line is a separate sale.
  • Add a customer to a line, or leave it as a walk-in.
  • Check the item, price, and payment status Zalyx picked up.
  • Set a due date for anything still owed.

Tap Record Sale (or Record N Sales in Multiple mode) once it looks right.

Walk-ins still need to be paid in full

Same rule as recording a sale by hand: a line with no customer attached must be fully paid, since there's no one to chase for a balance. If a sale needs to carry a balance, add the customer's details to that line first. See walk-in sale.

Not available for every business

Snap a sale is built for reading a sales log or invoice, so it's not shown on the Order tab for mechanic or dispatch businesses.
