Opening day for your butcher shop on TtaKkaa: weighed products, the scale, and the first sale by the kilo

Compartir artículo

This guide is for a butcher shop owner opening on TtaKkaa. In a butcher shop almost everything is sold by weight, so the store is set up that way from the start: every product has a price per kilo (or gram, or pound), and the cashier asks for the weight when you sell it. Everything below is in the product today.

Step 1: Sign up and choose "Butcher shop"

Sign up at store.ttakka.store with your phone number, enter the verification code, and choose "Butcher shop" as your business type. This sets your catalogue to sell by weight and hides tables and the kitchen screen. A counter sale is a retail sale, and delivery is available as a second order type. The first-setup wizard then covers your logo, your first branch and its hours, your products, and how you receive orders.

Step 2: Register weighed products

From "Menu & products", create categories like beef, lamb, poultry, mince, and offal. For each product, the form already shows the weight fields:

  • Unit: kilogram, gram, or pound. The price you enter is the price per that unit.
  • Scale item reference: a short code, unique per weighed product, that your scale prints inside its label barcode.
  • Weight step: the smallest weight increment, a store-wide setting shown for reference.

Register each cut as its own product with its own price per kilo (for example, "beef fillet" and "beef shoulder"). Check the unit before saving: choosing gram instead of kilo makes the price a thousand times off, and it is the first thing to check if a price looks strange.

Step 3: The scale, or no scale

You can sell on day one without a scale connected to the cashier: the cashier taps the product and enters the weight on the in-app keypad, and the price appears live. The screen also keeps a short list of recent weights to tap again.

If you have an electronic scale, connect it from the scale settings screen on the cashier (by cable or over the network). When it is connected, the weight on the scale fills in by itself; while the reading is still moving, the screen asks you to wait until the scale settles before confirming. Before buying a scale, read the digital scale buying guide.

If your scale prints barcode labels with the weight, the cashier can scan the label and add the line directly with its weight and price, with no extra screen.

Step 4: Printing and the drawer

  1. Set up the receipt from "Branches & devices" then "Invoices & printers", and check the preview.
  2. Connect the receipt printer on the cashier over Bluetooth or the network.
  3. Open a shift and enter the cash in the drawer.

Step 5: The first sale by the kilo

  1. Tap the product (or scan the scale label).
  2. Take the weight from the scale or type it, for example 1.25 kg. If the customer asks for an amount of money instead, switch to "by money" and enter the amount.
  3. Confirm. The line shows the weight, the price per unit, and the total.
  4. Take payment and print the receipt, which shows the item, the exact weight, the unit price, and the total, so the customer can check the maths.

Refunds and voids ask for the manager PIN. If the internet drops, the cashier keeps selling offline and syncs when it returns.

Step 6: Closing the day

If you paid from the drawer during the day (ice, bags, a supplier), record it on the cashier as a cash pay-out on the open shift. At closing, close the shift and read the Z report: opening cash, cash sales, refunds, pay-ins, and pay-outs. The dashboard reports then show the day's sales per product.

Preguntas frecuentes

Do I need a connected scale on day one?

No. Without a scale, the cashier types the weight on the in-app keypad and the price is calculated from the price per kilo. A connected scale can be added later.

A customer asks for a fixed amount of money's worth of mince. Can the cashier handle that?

Yes. The weight screen has a "by money" mode: enter the amount and the cashier works out the weight that matches it at the item's price.
