Point of Sale

The Point of Sale program is designed to address the needs of retail businesses to quickly handle transactions and allows processing of Sales, and Returns. As each Transaction is processed, the updating of inventory, cash received, and customer history is completed without complicated batch processing. At the end of day the "End of Day Register Close Out" and the "Back Office End of Day Processing" is completed to process the additional files to integrate with the Point of Sale program.

The Point of Sale program will allow the integration of Sales Transactions, with the inventory control, receivable and sales evaluation reports.

If the Point of Sale program is intergraded with Accounts Receivable, credit limits for customers on terms are checked as transactions are entered.

If the Inventory program is intergraded with the Point of Sale, the inventory levels are verified for on-hand quantities as transactions are entered. Pricing is calculated through the item pricing and customer levels created in the Inventory programs. Price and available quantities information is readily available.

Once a transaction is completed, the Payment Type and amount are entered. User-defined fields for additional information required for payment transactions allow for complete payment information. The cash drawer can be defined to open or not open depending on the Payment Type. Any change due to the customer is displayed. Transactions can be defined to print receipts/invoices immediately upon the completion of entry.

The Point of Sale program has the following features:
