What would be the best route for bar coding, labeling, and inventory tracking on a PC for a small retail store?
We run a retail outlet selling various merchandise that caters to bikers and the like… (clothing, apparel, trinkets, accessories, etc.) Our business has grown to where we are in need of a system that will allow us to create bar codes, a scanner to read the bar codes, a bar code labeler to create the bar codes and software inventory tracking that would be linked all together hopefully. We have only one computer and this system will be used only on this one PC. We need to know the best route for us while also in hopes that it doesn’t break the bank in the process. Thank you.

Hi, you would need a Point-of-Sale (POS) System to accomplish everything smoothly. You are probably familiar with Quickbooks, the popular accounting software by Intuit. They also make a POS software called Intuit Quickbooks Point of Sale Pro. The first link below shows the software.
There is a phone number at the top of the page for you to talk directly to a retail expert or a live chat function.
From my estimation, the software alone may run about 00. The second link shows the hardware and the prices. They may also offer bundled packages to help save money.
Hope this helps.

I would look into Fishbowl Inventory, its great for inventory management. Plus it also integrates with QuickBooks. So if you use QuickBooks for accounting, then you can use Fishbowl for Inventory.
you can find more info at this website.
