Why does a mobile phone shop need IMEI tracking?
In a mobile phone shop, every handset is a separate, expensive item with its own identity. Counting “10 phones of model X” is not enough: you need to know which IMEI was sold to whom, on which date, and under what warranty. That is the core of mobile phone shop software with IMEI tracking, and it is how RMS works.
When phones arrive, each IMEI is scanned into stock against the supplier’s bill. At the counter, the cashier scans the IMEI of the unit sold, and it prints on the invoice. Products with warranty months print “Warranty until” with the date, so the customer has proof without asking.
How does the warranty lookup save time?
When a customer comes back with a problem, open Invoices → Warranty and search by IMEI, invoice number or their phone number. RMS shows the phone, the original bill, the customer and how many days of warranty are left. Mark the claim there and the history stays with that IMEI.
The serial and warranty register report lists every unit sold with its warranty, for print or CSV export.
How are exchanges, returns and old phones handled?
- Exchanges: open the bill, choose what comes back, and sell the replacement. RMS works out the difference and prints a credit note.
- Returns: the same IMEI goes back into stock, ready to sell again.
- Buy-back: take a customer’s old phone in and its value comes off the new bill.
- Accessories: chargers, covers and earphones sell by barcode or quick-sale buttons.
A customer’s ID number can be saved on the customer and printed on the invoice when you need it, and tax invoices carry your own tax name, rate and registration numbers.
Is my data safe?
Everything stays on the shop’s own computer and works offline. Backups run automatically, can be copied to a USB stick, and restore after a preview and a confirmation. Each user signs in with a PIN and has their own permissions, so a cashier cannot delete bills or see costs unless you allow it.
