The Four Pillars of Transparent Atelier Pricing

Generic point-of-sale software doesn't understand tailoring. TailorInch was architected specifically for bespoke garments, fabric consumption, and craftsman labor.

🏷️

Default Category Base Rates

Set standard starting prices per garment category (Shirt, Suit, Kurta, Lehenga). When creating customer dresses, the base rate pre-fills instantly so staff never guess or underquote.

  • Branch-specific price overrides
  • Custom category support
  • One-tap price adjustments per order
Exclusive Feature
⚡

Add-on to Production Task Bridge

When you charge a customer for extra craftsmanship—such as hand embroidery, piping, or custom lining—TailorInch can automatically generate a production task with estimated effort (minutes) in the tailor's Worker Panel.

  • Direct link between cashier & workshop queue
  • Effort estimation in minutes
  • No forgotten handwork during cutting or stitching
🧵

Cloth & Material Tracking

Clearly separate dresses where the client brought their own fabric from garments where you provide material from your shop’s rolls. Bill cloth yardage transparently without mixing it with stitching labor.

  • Zero-cost client fabric tagging
  • Yardage & meter cost calculation
  • Fabric notes & bolt references attached
🛡️

Advance Deposits & Balances

Never hand over a completed garment without settling payment. Record booking deposits, track partial installments across multiple dresses, and display the exact pending balance at handover.

  • Multi-tender payment logging (Cash, UPI, Card)
  • Order-level and item-level discount caps
  • Prominent red warning on outstanding balances
