Brief and outcome
What was needed.
Hytek's sales team was running the entire POS workflow on a tangle of Excel sheets and printed invoices. They needed a single tool the staff could use during a sale, the back office could close the day with, and the owner could check at month-end without exporting anything.
What came of it.
The shop floor stopped writing things on paper, the back office got a clean monthly close, and Hytek had its first single-source-of-truth for sales activity.
What was built
5 parts,
shipped.
A selection of projects shipped through Syntorium and our CTO's prior engagements.
Inventory management
Products, stock levels, restocking alerts, supplier records.
Client accounts
Running balances, credit limits, and account-statement reports.
Invoicing + vouchers
Printable invoice templates, voucher generation, simple workflow for refunds and adjustments.
Reporting
Daily sales, monthly summaries, top SKUs, client aging.
Vue.js + jQuery frontend
Pragmatic stack matched to the team's existing skills, kept enhancement velocity high.
