A khata app for daily delivery, settled once a month
Milk is delivered every day and paid for once a month. That gap between the transaction and the payment is exactly where a paper register goes wrong.
A dairy or milk delivery business runs on a rhythm no other trade quite matches: a transaction every single day, per household, but a settlement only once a month. Thirty small entries have to add up correctly before anyone gets asked for money.
One quick entry per delivery, or one for the week
Record each day's delivery as a small credit entry, or batch a week at a time if that suits your route better. Either way the running total per household stays correct without a monthly recount.
Monthly settlement matches what was actually delivered
At month end, the balance already reflects every day's delivery — there is no manual tally against a paper register, and no argument about how many days were skipped for a holiday or an absence.
Your own supplier payments, tracked the same way
What you pay your milk source or cooperative is a supplier ledger in the same business, so your own payables sit next to what your customers owe you.
A full month's statement, ready to show
When a household questions their monthly bill, a day-by-day statement for that month answers it immediately — far faster than checking a paper register by hand.
Common questions
Do I have to enter every single day's delivery?
You can, or you can record a week at a time if that fits your route better — the balance is correct either way.
Can I see a full month for one household at once?
Yes, the statement feature shows every entry for a chosen date range with the opening and closing balance.
Can I also track what I owe my milk supplier?
Yes, suppliers are a separate list in the same business, kept apart from customer accounts.
