A new pledge at the counter, with items, loan terms and the till float

About the project

A pawnbroking and jewellery business with many stores runs its counters on it. Staff take pledges and renewals, buy gold, sell stock, move it between stores and cash up at the end of the day, all in one place.

The challenge

The business was moving off its previous system. Its records had to come across intact, and every store had to keep trading while the change happened.

Key features

  • Pledges and renewals

    Loans against items, with interest, renewals and buybacks worked out at the counter, and gold purchases.

  • Retail and layaways

    Sales, layaways and stock transfers between stores.

  • End of day

    Floats and the end of day cash-up, sent on as an email and a PDF.

  • Bank reconciliation

    Each day’s takings matched against the bank.

  • Foreign exchange counter

    Rates and margins, back orders, deliveries and customer history, with ID taken on larger trades.

  • Sanctions screening

    Customers checked against sanctions and politically exposed persons lists.
