About P•TAL

P•TAL carries forward India's only UNESCO-recognized metalworking craft tradition, rooted in the Thathera community of Jandiala Guru, Punjab, a heritage that dates back roughly 200 years. Through its work, the brand directly supports the livelihoods of over 110 artisan families across Jandiala Guru (Amritsar) and Jagadhri (Haryana), keeping this centuries-old craft alive for a new generation.

This blend of heritage and enterprise caught national attention when P•TAL was featured on Shark Tank India (Season 3), where it secured an all-shark deal worth ₹1 crore from Aman Gupta, Anupam Mittal, Amit Jain, Namita Thapar, and Vineeta Singh.

Today, the brand reaches customers through its D2C website, ecommerce and quick-commerce platforms, two offline stores, and a growing corporate gifting line — bringing handcrafted brass, copper, and bronze products into modern homes and businesses alike.

This is where GETPOS by NestorBird became an important part of its digital operations.

The Challenge: Managing Growing Retail Operations

As P•TAL's operations became more complex, managing products, inventory, sales, purchasing and fulfillment required greater coordination and visibility.

Key Retail Operations Challenges - GETPOS Case Study NestorBird

1. Complex Product & Item Management

P•TAL manages a diverse product catalogue with different item types, categories, SKUs, barcodes, weights and pricing structures.

The system needed a centralized item master to maintain accurate product information and ensure consistency across operational and sales processes.

2. Inventory Visibility Across Operations

With inventory moving through purchasing, manufacturing, finished-goods storage, dispatch and fulfillment, P•TAL required better visibility into stock at every stage.

Item-level inventory tracking; warehouse movements; stock transfers; finished goods; raw materials; work-in-progress inventory; barcode-based identification; and QR-based tracking.

3. Multi-Channel Sales Management

P•TAL operates across multiple sales channels, creating the need to manage orders from different sources while maintaining consistent customer, product, payment and fulfillment information.

Channels included EasyEcom, Amazon, Myntra, Shopify, B2C, B2B and influencer sales.

4. Sales & Fulfillment Control

Order processing needed to be connected with inventory availability and fulfillment status.

The system was configured so that sales processing could follow defined fulfillment conditions and prevent transactions from moving forward when sufficient inventory was not available.

5. Purchase & Procurement Management

P•TAL needed greater control over procurement, purchase receipts, supplier information and inventory coming into the business.

The implementation established structured purchasing and receiving workflows while connecting inventory movements with accounting processes.

6. Manufacturing & Stock Movement

Because P•TAL deals with handcrafted products, its operational workflow also involves manufacturing and movement of materials through different inventory stages.

The implementation covered BOMs, work orders, raw-material consumption, WIP movement and finished-goods transfers.

7. Need for Better Operational Control

P•TAL required a system that could bring its operational processes together and provide teams with greater visibility into sales, inventory, purchasing and business transactions.

The Solution: GETPOS AI Based Retail Operating System

To address these requirements, NestorBird implemented GETPOS as a connected retail operations platform for P•TAL.

Rather than treating billing, inventory, purchasing and accounting as separate activities, the implementation connected key operational workflows into a unified system.

GETPOS is designed to connect sales, stock, purchasing, accounting and analytics in real time, helping retail businesses manage operations from a single platform.

For P•TAL, the implementation was configured around its specific business processes, sales channels, inventory requirements and operational workflows.

Key Modules & Capabilities Implemented

1. Centralized Item Master

A structured Item Master was implemented as the central source of product information.

Item code and name; item groups; UOM; HSN/SAC; dimensions; product weight; net, gross and volumetric weight; barcode information; single, bundle and set classification; marketplace-specific information; country-wise pricing.

2. Barcode & QR Code Management

Barcode and QR-based workflows were introduced to improve product identification and operational tracking.

Barcode management; QR code generation; barcode scanning; QR code printing; product label printing; GRN-based QR generation; warehouse transfer identification; and manufacturing-related barcode/QR workflows.

3. Inventory & Warehouse Management

GETPOS enabled structured inventory movement across different operational stages.

Warehouse management; stock transfers; finished goods movement; packing/dispatch warehouse movement; raw material inventory; WIP inventory; stock availability validation; warehouse-based address mapping; and user-based warehouse configuration.

4. Sales & Order Management

P•TAL's sales workflows were configured to connect different sales channels with its central operational system.

EasyEcom sales order integration; Amazon India order handling; Shopify order integration; sales channel tracking; customer type classification; order reference tracking; payment status; invoice references; tracking information; shipping information; and delivered-date tracking.

5. Automated Order & Fulfillment Flow

The implementation established rules around when orders should move into fulfillment.

Sales orders from EasyEcom were brought into the system based on defined fulfillment conditions, while unfulfilled or returned orders were prevented from unnecessarily entering downstream processes. Inventory availability was also validated before further fulfillment processing.

This helped establish greater control between order → inventory → fulfillment → invoicing.

6. Purchase & Procurement Management

The procurement workflow was structured to manage purchasing and receiving activities.

Purchase orders; purchase receipts; supplier management; purchase invoice workflows; stock receiving; purchase accounting; branch-based purchasing; and warehouse-linked billing and shipping addresses.

7. Manufacturing & Production Management

The implementation also supported P•TAL's manufacturing workflow.

BOM creation; raw-material mapping; BOM rate control; work orders; partial production; raw-material issue; WIP movement; finished-goods transfer; manufacturing-related barcode scanning; and QR code generation.

8. Multi-Country Accounting

The implementation supported separate operational and accounting structures for India and the USA.

Separate companies; country-specific base currencies; separate Chart of Accounts; GST/LUT configuration; branch management; department hierarchy; cost centers; company-level master controls; and payment synchronization.

9. Payment & Sales Accounting Automation

Payment workflows were configured according to payment type.

For prepaid orders, payment entries could be automatically created and linked with the respective sales order, while COD transactions followed a controlled manual process.

This reduced unnecessary manual accounting intervention and improved transaction traceability.

What GETPOS Enabled for P•TAL

  1. Centralized Product Information: Product, SKU, barcode, pricing and classification information could be maintained through a structured item master.

  2. Better Inventory Visibility: Inventory could be tracked across warehouses, production stages and stock movements with greater control.

  3. Connected Sales Operations: Sales information from multiple channels could be brought into a structured workflow.

  4. Controlled Fulfillment: Order fulfillment could be linked to defined statuses and actual stock availability.

  5. Streamlined Procurement: Purchase orders, receipts, inventory and accounting could follow connected processes.

  6. Improved Manufacturing Tracking: Raw materials, production, WIP and finished goods could be managed through structured workflows.

  7. Stronger Barcode & QR Traceability: Barcode and QR functionality supported product identification and operational tracking across relevant transactions.

  8. Better Business Control: Teams gained a more structured view of sales, inventory, purchasing and accounting processes.

Why P•TAL Chose NestorBird & GETPOS

P•TAL's operational needs went well beyond basic billing. As the business grew, it needed a system that could connect retail, inventory, purchasing, manufacturing, fulfillment, and accounting — while flexing to the specific workflows of a handcrafted, artisan-driven supply chain.

GETPOS provided the technology foundation to bring these functions together in one place, while NestorBird's implementation team configured the system around P•TAL's actual business processes rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all setup.

That combination — capable retail technology, deep customization, and hands-on implementation expertise — gave P•TAL the operational control it needed to scale confidently across products, channels, and geographies.
