En qué destaca Flowyana Billing & POS
Flowyana Billing & POS keeps the counter, the stock and the books in one browser-based platform: an offline-first till, multi-warehouse stock and recipe consumption, and a double-entry voucher for every sale with CGST and SGST or IGST split. Payroll, CRM, an omnichannel inbox and a support desk share the same customer record, and each branch keeps its own GSTIN. Dictode configures it with you, migrates your items and price lists from GoFrugal, and builds the integrations your chain needs.

GoFrugal covers a lot of retail ground, but staff, customers and the books still sit apart from the till. Flowyana Billing & POS brings them together: an offline-first counter, GST-split books, payroll and CRM on one record, at a published rupee price. Dictode moves you across from GoFrugal and builds the delivery-app or reporting pieces you rely on, with a written proposal within 24 hours and code you own. For an Indian retailer or restaurant group that wants one system, choose Flowyana Billing & POS.
