Keeping up with the current trends is important. That is why InkBook offers 20 beautiful and modern themes you can use to customize the appearance of the software.
With InkBook, you can personalize the software's look and feel to your heart's content.
Easily Manage Tattoo Appointments
InkBook has the most powerful and simple appointment book available to help you manage your business.
Customized color codes make it easy to quickly view when an employee is available to book, to view what type
of appointments you have for the day, and even determine who still needs to receive a confirmation call or e-mail.
Book, rebook, check in clients, and so much more with just a couple of clicks. Creating an appointment is easy, and
keeping your employee's appointments organized is even easier when using InkBook.
Client Tracking for Business Management
InkBook Software allows you to create a detailed, custom client list, including pictures. All editions of InkBook
can store an unlimited number of clients in the database, so you will never run out of space! Learn about your clientele
from your software! Managing your business is easier with a contact database with all the important information you need about each of
your clients. InkBook Software also has built-in reports to display top spending clients, percent of clients that are retained by
employees, new client lists, client referral types and many others!
Each client has a complete purchase history profile which contains information about previous product and service sales to help you
suggest items to clients during their visits. No-shows and cancellations are also tracked per client so you know who to follow up with,
and special pop-up notes can be made for each client to give you an extra alert when creating or editing any appointment for the client.
Unlimited Before, After, and Profile Photos
InkBook can store, display, and print an unlimited number of pictures of each client with just a click of the button. Use any webcam or
digital camera to take photos and add directly into InkBook software, or add an existing photo file from anywhere on the computer - even
scanned images!
You can use the Picture Manager to store a series of progress photos when doing a series of services, and keep a main picture of your
client that comes up when scheduling and editing appointments.
Quick and Easy Product and Service Sales
InkBook management software allows you to enter a list of services, prices, and descriptions that your business offers. Scan barcodes to
quickly sell products, add products or services to a ticket by looking up an item from an available list or entering a quick ID, and even handle
pre-paid services so that clients can pay for a series of services in advance quickly and easily.
Easily Manage Employee Schedules
Enter each employee's schedule of working hours for individual days and even set up a recurring schedule for the employee to record many days'
schedule at a time. The InkBook Appointment Book reflects the employees' schedule by displaying what days and times they are working or
unavailable.
Additionally, employees can clock in and out using the Time Clock feature, and you can track the working hours for each employee in addition
to the scheduled hours. If you are using the Payroll feature as well, you can import time clock hours into payroll to calculate hourly pay for
each employee.
Manage Inventory and Product Information
InkBook tattoo software allows you to track your products, including the quantity in stock, which is automatically updated
every time a product is sold and inventory is received. InkBook tattoo software works with barcode scanners so that you can
quickly sell your products to clients or add new products to the database.
Sales Totals and Sales Tax Reporting
View a detailed sales totals report for your entire business or a single employee over any range of dates. You can get
information about service sales totals, product sales totals, returns, and so much more!
View a complete break-down of payment types for all tickets that were closed. See a record of the sales tax that was collected by the business
so that you know that paying your taxes will be quick and easy with this accurate reporting.
Automatic and Secure Database Backups
InkBook tattoo software comes with an easy-to-use built-in backup system. This simplifies the process of backing up your information
and helps reduce the chance of client information loss if your computer is damaged. All of your important client, sales, product, service,
employee, and other key information is saved if you ever need to restore all of your information.
Backups can also be manually made to a separate device, so that in the event of a computer failure you can recover all of your information
on a new computer easily. Want to see when you made your last backup? Just go to the Options screen and take a look. InkBook tattoo software
remembers this date! Restoring your data is also simple. Answer a few questions and your database and related information will be restored.
Beautiful Gift Cards for Your Business
Provide a professional touch, free advertisement, and have immediate income when gift cards are sold. You can get gift cards
that will integrate directly with InkBook to provide a quick and efficient way for your clients to pre-pay for products and services.
After a gift card is purchased, it can be used on returning visits to pay for purchases. And unlike paper gift certificates, gift cards are durable and reusable, so your investment
will last for many birthdays and holidays to come!

through InkBook software in just a few easy steps. You can accept payments through Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.

then calls each of your clients and plays the message for him or her.

software. To order and get details on monthly usage fees for automatic reminder calls, please call Rolling Hill Enterprises Inc. at

one location and can be restored anytime, day or night.

Print Barcode Labels for Unlabeled Inventory
Print a barcode label for any product in your database! For any of your items that might not come with a barcode label already printed, you can make your own to take advantage of the
quick barcode scanning that InkBook offers when selling products to a client. Best of all, you don't even have to have a special printer to do it!
InkBook software can print barcode
labels to your regular full-size printer using sheets of labels, or can print to a special label printer such as the Dymo LabelWriter when you want to print single labels at a time. Many
label sizes are supported, so no matter what the product you can print the perfect sized barcode label.
Employee Password Protection & Auto-Logout
Setting up password protection in InkBook software is easy! Each major screen and feature can be password protected. Each employee may have his/her unique password and list of screens and
features that can be accessed. InkBook also works with custom Employee ID cards so that employees can quickly swipe a card to access any protected feature.
Set up the automatic log out feature to make sure employees will not stay logged in if the computer remains inactive. Automatic logout further increases the security of your system, while making it easier on your employees.

Schedule Rooms and Equipment
You can easily schedule rooms for facial treatments and massages, as well as manage tanning beds, pedicure chairs, or even full classrooms - all using the versatile Resource feature.
The rooms and equipment will appear in the Appointment Book alongside your employees. InkBook will find an available resource that is required for a service when you book, so you won't have to juggle
what rooms or equipment is available when your client comes in. InkBook will alert you if no resources are available at the time you are trying to book, so you won't be overbooked.
You can also set capacities for your resources, allowing you to book more than one appointment with a resource at once. This makes managing group services or classes easy. InkBook keeps track
of how many appointments are booked in resources, and will let you know when it is booked to capacity.
Store Important Client Documents
Each client can have his or her own documents linked so that you can keep important medical, legal, or informational notes needed for services on file. Any file that is saved on your computer can be linked to a client,
so you can quickly and easily access scanned documents and images, service agreements, or questionnaires in just about any file format.
We even include simple template documents that you can use for new client forms or release forms to help get you started.
Manage Your Accounts with the General Ledger
Track all of your financial transactions for multiple bank accounts, such as a checking account, business account and savings account. These transactions can be rent payments,
utility payments, supplier shipments, written checks, and most other financial transactions that can occur within a business. The General Ledger works very much like an interactive
bank account statement. InkBook software can even calculate the current balance of your account based on what checks have cleared.
View Business Profit and Loss Info
The InkBook software Profit and Loss report provides the comprehensive tools for analyzing the income, expense, and net profit for your business. Display a complete breakdown of your
business's income and deductions based on sales transactions, payroll records, and general ledger entries. Run the Profit and Loss report over any date range to view a summary of how your
business is performing financially during any time period.
Automatically Remind Employees of Important Tasks
Create reminders that are associated with a client, a ticket, or just a general notification for employees. Use the Auto-Notify feature and InkBook will automatically notify you until a reminder is marked as complete.
Each reminder can be marked as complete or incomplete, can have a priority defined, and have a start and due date. You will be able to set up a notify schedule so that notifications will
be shown to you at the beginning of the day, periodically throughout the day, or not at all.
Automatically Fill Openings with the Wait List
The Wait List feature allows you to create a list of clients who have no previously scheduled appointment and are in the lobby waiting for an available employee, or would
like to schedule an appointment for a future date that is currently booked. On a Wait List entry, you will be able to add multiple services and employees, and define when the
client is available to come in. InkBook will look for openings in your appointment book as existing appointments are cancelled or moved, and you will be notified when a match
is found for a wait listed appointment request so that you can keep your appointment book full and your clients happy!
Create Your Own Reports
Most of the information that you need to run your business can be found in the hundreds of built-in reports included in InkBook.
But, if you need a report that isn't already found in Orchid, you can always create your own! Reports can be written in Structured Query Language (SQL),
which is a commonly-used database language used to specify what information you want in your report.
Use InkBook on Multiple Computers
InkBook has been designed to operate exceptionally in a local area network. Several computers on a network can be connected, and your employees can use InkBook software simultaneously for all of their scheduling, reporting, and management tasks.
All of the information in InkBook (i.e. clients, appointments, products, services, etc.) will be available on each of the computers. Your Appointment Book will continuously
refresh automatically to make sure to display all of the most up-to-date information, even when edited on another computer.
Connect Multiple Locations Together
The Wide Area Networking (WAN) version of InkBook allows multiple locations of your business to share information with each other. An unlimited number of stores anywhere
in the world can be set up to share information, making it perfect for any corporate or franchise business, as well as multiple locations owned by a single person. Setup is easy and requires little additional hardware to allow your multiple locations to connect.
With the WAN edition of InkBook software, you can switch to another location's database to view clients, book appointments, update inventory, run reports, and so much more.
Unique Reports for Wide Area Networking
Special reports that can only be found in the WAN edition of InkBook will help you to manage all of your locations more efficiently. You will be able to determine the sales totals
for all locations combined, show a complete inventory count of all locations, and more.
