Runner phone

Runner

The field job on a phone: search a store, reserve a pickup, carry a bag, log a sale, then settle credit.

Who uses this​

A linked runner uses this on their own phone. The owner links them from Runners. Cashiers stay on the till.

What you need first​

  • The runners tool is on for the shop
  • The owner has linked this runner and listed stock on the program
  • The runner profile is approved

Steps​

1. Search store stock​

Sign in on the runner phone. Search is the first tab. Type the item. Open a listing to see price, stock, and the store.

Runner phone Search: listings from linked stores.

2. Reserve a pickup​

Set the quantity. Press Reserve. The hold lasts a day. Collect at the store before it expires, or extend it. This is not till cash.

Reserve holds store stock for pickup. It is not a till sale.

3. Check My Bag​

Open My Bag. On hold is reserved, not yet collected. Bag is stock you already picked. Sell from collected stock. Return what you did not move.

My Bag: reserved holds and collected stock you are carrying.
My Bag: reserved holds and collected stock you are carrying.

4. Log a field sale​

Open Sell. Tap an item from the bag. Type what the customer paid. The margin is yours. Store credit stays open until you settle. This does not print a till receipt.

Sell: tap a bag item, type what the customer paid, log the sale.
Sell: tap a bag item, type what the customer paid, log the sale.

5. Settle in Wallet​

Open Wallet. Owed is open store credit. Settle on time so the store can raise your limit. A settlement is not a bank match in Daily Close.

Wallet: what you owe, bag holdings, and settle.
Wallet: what you owe, bag holdings, and settle.

What done looks like​

  • Search shows listings from linked stores.
  • A reserve holds stock for pickup. My Bag shows what you carry and what is still on hold.
  • Sell logs a virtual sale to the runner wallet. Wallet shows what you owe and lets you settle.

Common mistakes​

  • A runner sale is not drawer cash. Do not add it to Daily Close as till money.
  • Do not reserve more than you can collect and settle.
  • If the profile is still in review, you can browse. You cannot reserve yet.
