Accounting and invoicing for beauty salons
Facials, wellness, lashes, waxing and product sales: a beauty salon combines service and retail. Saldiqo writes invoices for packages and companies, records product purchases and devices as expenses and separates treatment and sales in the report.

Treatment and retail
Besides treatments, care products are sold. Both have different prices and margins.
