Furniture & Home Décor — Singapore
Selling sofas, dining sets and home décor in Singapore means juggling long lead times, customer deposits, delivery dates and a showroom floor that never matches the warehouse count. Tallium AI puts your showroom POS, live stock, purchase orders, deposits and GST-ready accounting in one app, so a sale written up in the showroom updates stock and your books at the same moment. One flat price in USD, unlimited users on every plan, and reports your accountant can actually work from.

Key takeaways
A customer pays 30% today on a sectional arriving in ten weeks, then the balance on delivery. In a spreadsheet-and-receipt-book setup that money sits in limbo — you can't see who still owes what, which deposits are against undelivered stock, or how much of the cash in your bank account is actually yours yet. Month-end becomes a hunt through order forms.
The display unit on the floor, the three in the Sungei Kadut warehouse and the container still on the water are all the same SKU — but they are not all sellable. Staff promise delivery dates based on a number that includes display pieces and goods not yet cleared, and the customer finds out two weeks later.
Imported furniture carries freight, handling and duty on top of the supplier invoice. If you only record the supplier's price, your margin on paper looks healthier than it is, and you end up discounting a slow-moving range you were barely making money on.
Once you cross the S$1,000,000 taxable turnover threshold, GST registration brings quarterly GST F5 filing, input tax on imports and freight, and now InvoiceNow (Peppol) e-invoicing to think about. Pulling those numbers out of a POS that doesn't talk to your books means re-keying and second-guessing.
Write up the order in Tallium AI with the deposit taken at the counter and the balance due on delivery. The app keeps the deposit visible against that customer and that order, shows you every outstanding balance in one list, and posts the revenue correctly when the goods actually go out — so your cash position and your books stop disagreeing.
Multi-location inventory separates showroom display, warehouse stock and goods on order, so staff quoting a delivery date are reading a real number. Transfers between showroom and warehouse take seconds on the mobile app, and reorder points flag ranges that need a purchase order before you run dry.
Record freight, handling and other import charges against the purchase order so each sofa carries its real cost. Margin reports then show you what each range and each supplier is genuinely earning you — which is the number you want in front of you before the next buying trip or clearance sale.
Every showroom sale, supplier bill and expense is captured with its GST treatment as it happens, and receipt scanning with AI categorisation handles the paperwork pile. When it's time to prepare your GST F5 return, the figures are already there with the underlying transactions behind them. Please confirm current rules with IRAS or a local tax professional.
Fast counter and tablet selling for big-ticket items — deposits, part-payments, delivery dates and customer details captured on the spot, with no per-seat charge for extra sales staff.
Track sofas, dining sets and décor across showroom floor, warehouse and inbound containers, with variants for fabric, finish and size so the right piece is promised to the right customer.
Raise POs for long-lead imported ranges, record freight and handling as landed cost, and match supplier invoices against what actually arrived.
Double-entry books that build themselves from your sales, bills and expenses — P&L, balance sheet and cash flow ready whenever you or your accountant want them.
GST treatment applied per transaction, with reports that line up to the GST F5 return and a clean audit trail behind every figure.
Build your plan in a minute — pay only for the parts of your business you run. From $79/month per shop.
