A Monday morning at your counter
Before most shops have even opened, the first decorators are already inside. This is how that rush goes with Onlinefact.
- The first vans pull up
A decorator picks up primer, masking tape and a box of rollers. You link his firm to the sale, his prices are right straight away and the invoice goes out by email. - A colour from last year
A customer wants the same shade as in his living room. You open his customer record and find the colour code in the notes. - A big renovation
A contractor asks for a price on paint for an entire flat. You draw up a quote and, once he agrees, turn it into an order. - Advice for a homeowner
A couple cannot choose between two colours and leaves with brushes and a paint tray as well. They pay with Bancontact Pay. - Early afternoon
The ‘To order’ report shows which size of your best-selling wall paint is nearly gone, and you place the order with your supplier.

Paint, tinting charges and accessories in Onlinefact
A paint shop sells by the tin, by the box and sometimes to order. This is how you set it up.
| What you sell | How you set it up |
| Wall paint in tins of different sizes | One product with a variant per size, each with its own barcode and stock |
| A custom-mixed colour | The base tin in the right size, with an open-price button for the tinting charge if you like |
| Rollers by the piece and by the box | Several barcodes, including a multipack barcode for the box |
| Masking tape and sandpaper | Quantity discount from a set number upwards |
| A decorating firm | Price level or fixed discount in the customer record, invoice by email or Peppol |
“A decorator who stops by in the morning wants to be on site as soon as possible.”
With his prices already in the till and an invoice that sends itself, he is out of the door before the next customer’s coffee has gone cold.
Questions from paint shops
Can decorators buy from me on account?
Yes. You give the customer a standard payment term, Onlinefact sends payment reminders digitally and the bank link recognises payments by their structured reference.
Can I see which colours and brands sell best?
Your reports show sales and margin per product. If you give each product a brand, the sell-through per brand report also shows which brand is doing best.
I also sell through a webshop. Does that work together?
Onlinefact links up with webshops on Shopify, WooCommerce and Magento, so you manage online orders alongside your shop sales in Onlinefact.
Can I print barcode labels for my shelves?
Yes, with a Brother or Bixolon label printer you print labels with barcode and price, per product or for a whole selection at once.
