# Getting a flower shop through Valentine's, Mother's Day and All Saints

> How Priroda helps a florist survive the peaks: every order in one list, the stems that open orders will need, purchase requests before the rush, delivery windows for the day, prep tasks for the team and the numbers afterwards.

For San Valentín on 14 February, Día de la Madre on the first Sunday of May and Todos los Santos on 1 November, Priroda, the flower-shop management software from priroda.tech, keeps every order in one list with a status the whole team sees, computes the stems that open orders will need against what is in the cooler, plans the purchase, sets the delivery windows for the day, hands out the preparation as tasks, and afterwards shows what sold, what was written off and what the day earned.

## What makes a peak hard

- Two hundred orders in a notebook, promised by three people, some twice.
- Roses run out at 11 in the morning, or two hundred are left on the 15th.
- Deliveries pile into the same two hours.
- The team does not know who is conditioning stems and who is at the counter.

## How it works in Priroda

1. **Take orders early**, from the counter, the phone and the online store, into the same list, each with its delivery window or pickup time and payment status. Prepaid orders are marked paid; the rest show as unpaid to chase.
2. Open **stock requirements**: the stems needed by all open orders against the current balance. What is missing becomes a **purchase request** to the supplier days before the date.
3. In **Settings → Delivery**, set the **windows for the day**: extra slots, a closed morning, a minimum order for far zones. Checkout and the counter offer only what the shop can deliver.
4. Create the **prep tasks** as a series: condition the roses on the 12th, make the ready-made bouquets on the 13th, print the cards. Each with an owner and photo proof.
5. Pre-made bouquets are counted as **bouquet stock**, so the counter sells from a known number.
6. On the day, the order list is the board: status changes as arrangements are made, delivered or picked up; customers are notified.
7. Afterwards, the **daily cash**, **best sellers** and **write-off** reports show what the peak earned and what was over-bought.

## Where it lives

- Web: **Orders**, **Balance** (stock requirements), **Receive → Purchase requests**, **Settings → Delivery**, **Tasks**, **Reports**.
- iPad app: Orders and Bouquets tabs at the counter.
- Assistant: "what do Valentine's orders need from stock", "create a purchase request for what is missing", "how did Mother's Day compare to last year".

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I stop taking online orders for a specific day?
Yes. Close the delivery windows or mark the day off; the store offers only bookable days.

### Can I take deposits?
An order can be partially paid; the payment status shows the balance due.

### Does it handle Todos los Santos differently?
No special mode is needed: the same list, stock requirements and delivery windows apply to chrysanthemums on 1 November as to roses in February.
