GullySystem
Retail and distribution · Lighting Store Management Software

One system for fixtures by specification, project schedules, phased delivery and warranty returns.

Keep the fixture catalogue, counter sales, architect schedules, project quotations, import orders, showroom and warehouse stock, phased deliveries and driver warranty claims in one system. Every line carries its wattage, colour temperature, beam angle and finish from quotation to delivery note. Counter staff, the project desk and the warehouse read the same record, so a 3000K fitting stays 3000K until it is fitted on site.

  • Fixtures loaded with wattage, colour temperature, beam angle, finish and driver
  • Architect schedules matched to your catalogue with your staff confirming each line
  • Quotation layout and delivery note fields changed by GullySystem staff on request

Showrooms selling decorative fixtures over the counter, and counters supplying downlights, profiles and drivers to architects and contractors, work from Lighting Store Management Software, which GullySystem builds around your own catalogue. It holds the catalogue by specification, turns a lighting schedule into a quotation, splits stock between display, warehouse and project, and follows phased deliveries and warranty returns.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

One downlight exists in dozens of variants

Wattage, colour temperature, cut-out, beam angle and finish multiply a single model into many codes. A counter sale or a quotation line can pick the wrong one without anybody noticing.

Lighting schedules are retyped line by line

The architect’s schedule arrives as a spreadsheet or a drawing sheet, room by room. Each line is matched to a product and a price by hand, and a revision starts the matching again.

A chandelier on display can be sold twice

The showroom piece, the carton in the warehouse and the lot reserved for a project are counted as one number. The second buyer learns of the shortfall at delivery.

Imported fixtures arrive without a trail

Orders to overseas brands carry a lead time, a deposit and a shipping reference. Someone emails the brand for news, while the customer has already been quoted a delivery date that no one confirmed.

Phased deliveries lose their balance

A site takes part of an order and asks for the rest later. By the second phase, the contractor’s count and the store’s count differ, and neither can show a delivery note.

Warranty claims cannot find their batch

A driver fails after months of use. The bill, the project and the batch it came from sit in separate places, so the claim to the brand waits.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

Illustration with sample figures. Your screens are built around your own records.
  1. 1

    Enquiry and schedule

    A homeowner browses at the counter, or an architect sends a lighting schedule. The project desk records the client, the architect and the rooms involved.

  2. 2

    Matching and quotation

    Each schedule line is matched to a catalogue item with the same CCT, CRI and beam angle. The priced quotation goes out by room, and every revision stays on file.

  3. 3

    Order and import

    Accepted lines are checked against stock. Items not held go to the supplier on a purchase order, with the promised date and any deposit recorded.

  4. 4

    Picking and delivery

    The warehouse picks by project and room, with the colour temperature printed on the picking list. Deliveries leave in phases, and each delivery note shows what remains.

  5. 5

    Installation support

    Drivers, dimmers and profile lengths are checked against the list. Shortages and wrong-variant complaints from site are logged against the project.

  6. 6

    Billing and after-sales

    Invoices follow the deliveries. Architect or contractor commission is released after payment clears, and a warranty return is traced back to its batch.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Fixture catalogue by specification

Search by wattage, CCT, CRI, beam angle, cut-out, finish, dimming type and IP rating, with the compatible driver and a photograph for each fitting.

Counter billing for decorative lights

Bill chandeliers, wall lights and ceiling fans at the counter, record the customer’s phone number, and hold an item for a customer deciding at home.

Lighting schedule to quotation

Bring in the architect’s schedule, match each line room by room, and send a quotation from the matched lines. Revised schedules update the quote without a fresh start.

Display, warehouse and project stock

Keep the showroom piece apart from warehouse stock and the quantity reserved for a named project, so a display chandelier is never promised twice.

Import orders and supplier lead times

Raise orders to brands, record deposit, shipping reference and promised date, and receive the carton against the packing list on arrival.

Project orders and phased delivery

Show what was ordered, what has landed, what went to site and what is pending for each room, with a delivery note for every phase.

Picking lists with specification labels

Print wattage and colour temperature on the picking list, the carton label and the delivery note, so mixed variants are caught before the vehicle leaves.

Drivers, dimmers and accessories

Link every fixture to the driver, dimmer and profile it needs, and flag a quotation that lists a fitting without its power supply.

Warranty and returns by batch

Record batch and serial where the brand provides it, trace a failed driver to its bill and project, and follow the claim to the brand.

Architect and contractor commission

Name the architect or contractor on each project, agree the share, and release it after the client’s payment has cleared.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Product Management

    One item record per variant carries wattage, CCT, beam angle and finish, so counter staff and the project desk pick the same fitting.

  • Point of Sale Billing

    Chandeliers, wall lights and fans are billed at the counter with the customer’s number, and a held item is reserved until they return.

  • Estimate/Quotation Management

    Matched schedule lines become a room-wise quotation, and each revised schedule is kept as a new version beside the one the architect first saw.

  • Warehouse Management

    Showroom pieces, warehouse cartons and project reservations are separate locations, so a display chandelier is not counted as stock that can ship.

  • Purchase Order Management

    Orders to overseas brands hold deposit, shipping reference and promised date, and incoming cartons are linked to the project lines waiting for them.

  • Order Management

    A project order shows ordered, landed, sent and pending quantities by room, with a delivery note raised for each phase.

  • Batch and Serial Tracking

    Batch and serial numbers from the brand are stored against each delivery, so a failed driver traces back to its bill and project.

  • Commission and Incentives

    The agreed share for each architect or contractor is calculated per project and released only after the client’s payment has cleared.

Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Catalogue attributes

The specifications you filter by, such as CCT, CRI, beam angle and IP rating, are set as fields on every fixture before the catalogue is loaded.

Schedule formats

The layouts architects send you are mapped so that columns for room, fixture type and quantity come across, with staff confirming every match.

Commission rules

The share paid to each architect or contractor, and the point at which it is released, follow your own arrangement.

Stock and customers migrated

Your item list, opening stock and open project orders are cleaned and loaded before go-live.

Tax and currency settings

Invoice layouts, tax rates and import costs follow the rules of your country, reviewed during implementation.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Can it read an architect’s schedule?

Spreadsheet schedules come in cleanly. Drawing sheets and PDFs need more checking. In both cases your staff confirm each match before the quotation leaves the store.

How does it avoid mixing colour temperatures?

Every fixture line holds its CCT, and that value is printed on the picking list, the carton label and the delivery note. A mismatch is visible on paper before dispatch.

Can a showroom piece be kept off the sellable count?

Yes. Display stock is a separate location. A piece on a showroom ceiling is shown as display, and the warehouse count only covers cartons you can actually ship.

Does it handle orders placed with overseas brands?

Yes. A purchase order records the brand, deposit, shipping reference and promised date. Cartons are received against the packing list, and project lines are linked to the incoming goods.

Can we deliver a project in phases?

Yes. Each phase has its own delivery note, and the project screen shows what remains by room. The contractor can be handed a written balance at any visit.

How do warranty claims work?

A returned driver or fixture is linked to its bill, project and batch where the brand supplies one. The claim to the brand is then followed until a replacement reaches the customer.

Can I pay architects a share of each project?

Yes. The architect or contractor is named on the project with the agreed share. Release waits until the client’s payment has cleared, and each payout is listed.

Will it connect to my accounting package?

There is no ready connector. Counter bills, project invoices and supplier bills go out as an export file your accountant can import. The export layout gets settled when the first workshop sits down with your accountant.

What will it cost?

Branches, users and the size of the fixture catalogue move the quotation. Commission rules for architects, import order tracking and the move of stock and customers are priced as parts. You watch a demo with lighting fixtures first, then the proposal arrives in writing.

How soon can the counter and project desk work from it?

The fixture catalogue by specification, counter billing and lighting schedule to quotation go in at launch. Project stock, imports, phased delivery, warranty and commission follow. The proposal lists the dates.

What does the store need to have ready?

Prepare the catalogue with colour temperature and driver details, current stock sheets, a few architect schedules and quotations, and supplier price lists. Name an owner, a project desk lead and a warehouse person.
