Selling statutory paperwork in the newsagency

IMG_0683Statutory forms such as a power of attorney and a statutory declaration continue to be good sellers in the newsagency. Like any inventory item they need to be tracked. We do this with hot keys on the POS screen so as to not damage the paper base items. Every item sold without being tracked is a theft opportunity. We can stop this through our say to day management decisions. Sadly for them, not enough newsagents do this.

    They are consistent sellers for us. Luckily these items have a barcode so they are easy to track and sell.

    Chris are you being sarcastic or do you actually barcodes on your forms. The forms from GNS QLD doesn’t come with barcodes so we have been generating our own. Will set up a button as shown from now on.

    Why would I be sarcastic about this?! All of our power of attorney, stat decs, will forms etc have barcodes so they all scan without me putting a label on them. I do not get my Stat Decs, Wills or Power of attorney forms from GNS but from Willpac
