Narowal, Punjab · Custom software company, built from Islamabad
Software House in Narowal for School Fees, Shop Stock and Billing
For schools chasing unpaid fees, shops and wholesale counters whose stock never quite matches the till, and owners who manage from another city or country: one system that shows fees, stock and cash as they happen.
Timeline Digital is a custom software development company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Islamabad. We build fee collection, counter billing, stock and clinic systems for Narowal schools, colleges, shops and clinics, delivered remotely from our Islamabad headquarters. Before you commit to the full project, we build 2 to 3 of your key modules as a free pilot for your team to test.
Why businesses in Narowal build custom software
Narowal is in north-eastern Punjab, south-east of Sialkot and near the Indian border. This page is written for three kinds of organisation there. Private schools and colleges that issue fee vouchers every month and follow up late payers by hand. Shops and wholesale counters that sell from stock all day and count the cash at night. Clinics that want patient visits and bills kept together. Some of them are run by owners who are not on the premises every day, and may be working in another city or overseas. A custom system gives those owners a live view of fees, sales and cash on their phone, without waiting for an evening call from the manager.
Software we build for Narowal businesses
Fee voucher, instalment and late-payer system
Vouchers are generated for every class or programme with concessions and sibling adjustments already applied. Fees can be split into instalments, paid in cash or at the bank, and each payment produces a receipt that can be sent to the parent on WhatsApp. The office sees a live list of late payers by class, and colleges can add admission and exam fees to the same ledger.
Counter billing with live stock
Each bill is made by barcode scan or item search, with separate rate lists for walk-in and wholesale customers. Stock reduces as the bill is saved, and a low-stock list is ready before the next purchase order. Credit customers get their own ledger, and FBR-ready invoices are available where you issue tax invoices. Cash, card and credit sales are totalled when the counter closes.
Clinic appointments and patient billing
Patients are registered once and every visit is added to their record, with the doctor's notes, prescriptions and charges. The front desk issues tokens or booked appointments, bills consultations and procedures, and prints or messages the receipt. If the clinic runs a pharmacy counter, medicine sales can draw from the same stock and patient record.
Owner dashboard for remote supervision
Owners who are away see the day's fee collections, sales, expenses and cash in hand on a phone, updated as entries are made. Alerts can flag large discounts, deleted bills or cash differences at closing. Every change carries a user name and time, so questions can be settled from the audit history rather than from memory.

Why work with Timeline Digital from Narowal
Oversight for owners who are not on site
Role-based access lets the manager run the day while the owner watches the numbers. Staff see only the screens their job needs, and sensitive actions such as refunds or fee waivers can require the owner's approval from a phone.
Set up over video calls
We serve Narowal remotely from our Islamabad headquarters. The principal, accountant or shop manager walks us through the current process on a screen share, and we return with working screens to review. On-site visits happen only when the contract includes them.
Easy for front-desk and counter staff
Receptionists, fee clerks and cashiers learn a few short screens in an online training session, and Urdu labels are available where they help.
Your registers and sheets moved across
Student lists, item lists, opening stock and patient records kept in Excel can be cleaned and imported, so the first day on the new system starts with real data.
- Single office in G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, serving Narowal remotely
- Your 2 to 3 key modules built as a free pilot before any commitment
- Owner dashboards with full audit history
- Receipts and reminders by WhatsApp and SMS
What a custom system could do for Narowal businesses
Example workflows for common types of business. They show what a system can do; they are not client case studies.
School and college group
A school and college group with more than one campus could issue fee vouchers by instalment, send receipts on WhatsApp and see late payers for every campus in one list.
Family clinic
A family clinic could register each patient once, add every visit and prescription to that record and bill consultations and medicines from the same screen.
Shop run by an owner living abroad
A shop owned by someone living abroad could let the manager handle billing and stock while the owner checks sales, cash and discounts on a phone each evening.
Frequently asked questions
Does Timeline Digital have staff or an office in Narowal?
No. We have one office, in G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, and we serve Narowal clients remotely from our Islamabad headquarters. Planning, demonstrations, training and support take place over video calls, screen sharing and WhatsApp, Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00 PKT. Most school, shop and clinic systems can be set up entirely online. If a visit is needed, for instance to install barcode printers, it is agreed in the contract first.
What would a Narowal school test first in the free pilot?
Schools usually choose fee vouchers and receipts, the late-payer list and student records, since those take most of the office's time. Before you commit to the full project, we build 2 to 3 of your key modules as working software, free of charge. Your fee clerk and accountant use them for a real fee cycle, and the full build starts only after you approve what they have tested.
Can I check my shop's sales and cash while I am abroad?
Yes. The owner's phone app or web login shows sales, credit given, expenses and cash in hand, updated as your staff make entries. You can set alerts for discounts above a limit, deleted bills or a cash difference at closing. Every entry records who made it and when, so you can review any question with your manager using the same audit history, whichever time zone you are in.
Can parents pay fees in instalments and get a receipt on WhatsApp?
Yes. Each student's annual or term fee can be divided into instalments with their own due dates. When a payment is recorded, whether in cash at the office or through the bank, the system produces a numbered receipt and can send it to the parent's WhatsApp or by SMS. Reminders go out before and after each due date, and the late-payer list updates itself.
Can a clinic keep each patient's visit history together with the bill?
Yes. A patient is registered once with a record number, and every later visit, note, prescription and charge is added to that record. The doctor sees the history before the consultation, and the front desk bills from the same visit. Access is limited by role, so reception sees appointments and bills while clinical notes stay with the doctors.
