Getting Started

Getting Started with DokanMate

A practical first-day checklist for configuring your business, branches, users and POS.

Getting Started with DokanMate

Use this checklist after your DokanMate installation is ready.

1. Complete business settings

Add your business name, receipt logo, phone, address, invoice preferences and post-sale message.

2. Create branches

Your Main Branch counts toward the package branch limit. Create only the locations you actively operate.

3. Create users and permissions

Assign each user to the correct branch. Customer and Supplier permissions are separate, so a Shop Manager can work with customers without seeing supplier data.

4. Add products

Create categories, brands and products. For clothing, configure variants such as size and colour where needed.

5. Add stock or purchases

Use purchases to receive supplier stock or use the supported stock workflow for your opening quantities.

6. Test one complete sale

Create a sale, choose the payment type, print a receipt, check stock and verify the dashboard totals.

7. Create a backup

Go to Settings → Backups & Updates and create a database backup before entering production data.
