Salon Sundries handles the operational supplies that keep your clinic running day to day but are not linked to specific treatments or sold to clients. Add them to the Products module under a Sundries category, configure appropriate reorder thresholds, and log deliveries as they arrive. Their costs feed into the Spending Reports alongside other operational expenses, giving you a fully complete picture of total overhead and true business profitability.
How It Works
01
Create a Sundries category in Products then Categories to separate these items from retail and consumables.
02
Add each sundry item to the Products module with an opening stock count and a reorder threshold.
03
When supplies arrive, use Stock then Receive to log the delivery, update quantities, and record the supplier.
04
Log the purchase cost in Finance then Spending to track sundry expenditure against your operational budget.
05
Review the monthly Spending Report to see total sundry costs as a line item in your overhead breakdown.

Pro Tips
Reviewing sundry spend quarterly often reveals significant savings — small regular expenses accumulate faster than expected.
Bulk purchasing of frequently used sundries reduces per-unit cost, but track stock carefully to prevent expiry waste.
Assign one team member as the sundry stock owner — accountability prevents the routine reordering task from falling through gaps.
Separating sundry costs clearly from treatment consumable costs produces much more useful overhead analysis.
