Add a shop or branch

Create a new branch under your account — give it a name, address and bill code — and start billing from it right away.


Quick steps

  1. 1

    Open Settings → Manage shops

    From Main, go to Settings → Manage shops (needs the shops/ecosystem permission).

  2. 2

    Add a shop

    Choose Add shop (branch). Adding a shop is a paid add-on, so you confirm and pay for it first.

  3. 3

    Set its details

    Name, address and contact for that location; it gets its own shop code.

  4. 4

    Assign staff and stock

    Give staff access to the shop and stock it (directly or via transfer from a godown).

  5. 5

    Start billing

    Switch to the new shop and bill — invoices use its own shop-coded series.

Adding a branch takes a minute and immediately gives that location its own identity within your one GSTIN. You add and manage shops from Settings → Manage shops (Main), which needs the shops/ecosystem permission.

Adding a shop is a paid add-on

A new shop (branch or godown) is a billable add-on to your subscription — you confirm and pay for it before it's created. So plan branches around your plan; each extra location has a cost. (A brand-new shop inherits settings from your Main branch to get going.)

What a new shop gets

  • Its own shop code and bill series, so invoice numbers never clash with other branches.
  • Its own address/contact, printed on its invoices.
  • Its own stock (start it with a transfer from a godown or another shop, or by recording purchases against it).
  • Its own staff assignments and dashboard numbers.

It shares the business-wide things

The new shop uses the account's GSTIN, legal settings, product catalogue, and the wallet/templates — those live on Main.

After creating it

  • Assign staff who should work there (see Staff per shop).
  • Stock it — transfer from a godown/branch, or record purchases to it.
  • Switch to it via the shop switcher and start billing.

A storage-only location? Add it as a Godown instead — it works like a shop for stock and billing but is presented as a godown and hides retail-only features. See Godown.
