Bookmine can operate in Multi-location/Multi-shop mode where some information, such as inventory descriptions and contact and supplier details, is shared across all locations but properties, such as stock holdings, sell prices, sales, email and purchase ordering is unique for each location.

All stored data is held centrally at a designated headquarters, all other locations, called remote locations, use Terminal Services access (Citrix, LogMein, Teamviewer, Remote Desktop are examples of access modes that can be used) to connect to the central data.


A license is required for each location to operate in multi-location mode.


Stock can be transferred between locations using the Transfer Request interface. Transfers can be initiated at the requesting location, to request stock in,  or at the supplying location, to push stock out to another location. The full versatility of the Purchase Odering system can also be used to place Transfer Requests to other locations. In all cases the requesting location has a full record of all stock that is on order, whether it is from another location or branch or from an external supplier. Once stock arrives at a location and has been checked it can be easily bulk received into the system.
