Looking for information on moving inventory for a bookstore into square

We are considering shifting to using square to manage a bookstory with an inventory of several thousands of books. What would be a good next step for us to decide what we might need. Also looking for info on how to import existing inventory?

you can export download the spreadsheet template here https://squareup.com/dashboard/items/library.  doing it a spreadsheet program will be way faster than entering into the POS on the iPad.

 

I would recommend adding an item and then downloading it so you can see what information goes where etc.

Super helpful - thanks. Do you have to modify fields in square at all?

As for what you need depends on what you want to do.

 

I have the following setup 3 times in my store:

Square Stand

iPad

Ethernet printer

Cash drawer that hooks to the ethernet printer

Square contactless reader

 

the total is about $700 depending on sale prices on iPads.  new ones list at $329 but can be found on sale at walmart and Target for $249.
