Using Square for Consignment Sales

I'd like to be able to track sales by vendor for a consignment shop.  Has anyone used Square to do this?  Maybe create a category which is a specific vendor?  

 

Any suggestions on how anyone has done it will be a big help.

Hi VBBGallery, I own a consignment shop and use square...though I use a consignment software that tracks what purchases sell for each vendor and use square as my POS service. You could make each vendor a category listing on square but I think you'll find it becomes hard to track each item and very labor intensive...hence I would search out consignment software to help with the inventory aspect

I don't know if you found a solution but we created our own consignment software to integrate with Square as I couldn't find one that did. We are finishing up the integrating to Square's api. In the meantime our software allows the upload of Square's sales file csv.

 

Let me know if you are interested. My email is [personal information redacted]

Hello, your email was redacted because it's personal information. Can you share the link to your consignment software, or at least tell us the name so we can find it? I'm looking for a solution ASAP.

Jo,

 

We are finalizing our API this week. We hope to have demo access to a beta of Rose shortly. We have three stores and were dead set against leaving Square but had to move our consignment software out of DOS (no joke) and into the 21st century. Mesaage me as I'm having a hard time private messaging you from my phone. Thanks!

 I know that @ConsignConnect has been working on something... Worth asking. 

 

Do you know how to use Excel at all? One benefit to using something like Excel is being able to store your files online and access them from any computer or device, no monthly fees, and you can tailor it to your needs. It's been several years in the making, but I've forced myself to learn Excel enough to keep track of our sales, generate barcodes, and email a pdf receipt to each vendor at the end of the week all from a spreadsheet, with just a few clicks. PM me if you'd like to know more, I'd love to share (warning... it's an earful, and a steep learning curve if you don't know a little about Excel, to begin with).

We think we've worked out the API issues. It shouldn't be too much longer to give people demo access to Rose. If anyone is interested, message me and I'll put you on the list for beta access. Thanks!

Yes, Rose is built for multi-location as we own three consignment stores ourselves. As for Shopify, we are working on adding integration but we aren't there yet. Check us out!

Rose is multi-location ready out of the box. Your Square account should have multiple locations under the same square account (email address). Each location has a unique ID, Rose uses that ID to sync the inventory and sales info into your Rose account.

 

Let me know if you need more info. Our website has contact info you can find here.
