- Test print two pages of tags to make sure your
tags will print correctly. You may need to change your
printer properties to make the minor adjustments needed to
correctly print a tag. See
Printing Issues.
|
- Prepare items before you enter them into TagIt. They
are then easier to track and match with tags.
|
- Sort items by general description before you enter them
into your master list. This will make entering items
quicker (just use the “copy from highlighted item when
adding” button).
|
- In description (adding new item), a shorter description is
better. You are more likely to match similar items and fit
the entire description on the tag.
|
- Back up your data regularly! Select “Backup” from the
File menu.
|
- Print out the Worksheet report and bring it with you to
check-out. This will help you quickly track your items.
|
- After a consignment event or garage sale, do not
remove tags from your items. This allows you to quickly
match new/updated tags with existing (not yet sold)
items.
|
- Enter sale results ASAP after a sale event. When
finished, print out needed reports to keep on file.
|
- After your first sale, to move only the active items
(not yet sold) into a new sale, right click over the
“select” column and choose “select all active”. You can
then easily move those items into a new sale.
|
- In between sales, store items in numerical order in
boxes or tubs. Label your container with the item
number range (i.e. 1-76; 77-150).
|
- Keep in mind that at consignment events where tags are
NOT returned to you, it is difficult to track your sale
outcome exactly. This is especially true with items
you mark for discount and/or donation.
