- Point of sale software, also called checkout software, is the software used at the place where a retail transaction takes place. It’s used to complete the transaction at the contact point where a customer makes their payment to a merchant in exchange for goods or services. Basically, POS software calculates sales and operates the cash drawer (or the virtual cash drawer). It will add up the sales total for a transaction, add the state sales tax, calculate the amount of money the customer will get back as change, and automatically adjust the store’s inventory levels within their integrated ERP system to keep track of the amount of inventory sold. For most small and medium-sized retailers, the POS system will be customized according to their retail industry, as different industries have different needs. Some examples of industries that rely on POS software for their daily tasks are: retail, restaurants, hotels, hardware, rental, beer & liquor, etc.
- POS software automates, reports on and streamlines all of your complex business transactions and corresponding inventory adjustments from one system. Depending on the capacities developed into the solution, POS software can often have very robust functionalities. Some of these functionalities often include: the automation of inventory and purchasing management (making adjustments within your ERP system after a transaction is made); accessing customer histories and tracking personal customer interests and buying habits; analyzing data and reporting; setting up discounts, promotions, special sales, and such; sending targeted mailings to specific audiences; displaying up-sales; scanning barcodes as well as managing bar-coding and labeling; completing mobile, on-the-go transactions from tablets, smartphones, and other mobile devices; tracking shipping and billing history and progress.POS is much more than just a solution to log sales and complete transactions. In conjunction with your ERP system, it’s a way to automate your entire sale and post sale process. From calculating price, to organizing shipping and billing, to making inventory adjustments, POS is a way to streamline sales transactions while eliminating mistakes and human error.
- Although most POS software solutions have the same underline capabilities, a close evaluation of different POS systems can be like comparing apples and oranges. Different POS solutions are compatible with different industries and are built for integrating with different ERP and accounting systems. We are going to evaluate four of these solutions to help you understand the benefits of each and evaluate which is right for you.
- The first POS solution we will cover is Zip2Cloud. Zip2Cloud is a secure, web-based POS system created for integration with Intacct financials.

- If you manage a business that has a point of sale environment, integrating your POS and ERP systems is a no-brainer. Your ERP is used to manage inventory, and your inventory management, and ERP functionality will not be accurate unless you have a system in place that can automatically make adjustments after inventory is sold. POS and ERP integration is the best option for retailers looking to streamline their business practices and automate most of their sales.
- As mentioned previously, among the products that we developed is a product called Anytime Commerce. Unlike most ecommerce storefront software, Anytime Commerce is designed specifically for business to business online sales. Customers can login for a filtered view of items they typically buy with access to inventory stock status, customer specific pricing, and customer self-service to view recent payments, billing information, and details about their account.

Item catalogs are easily set up within categories and subcategories with images, attachments, product descriptions and so forth.And you can use sales reps and dealer logins to provide online access for your sales force so they can place customer orders or review account history.
- So to recap, today we learned the importance of not only POS software, but finding the right solution to integrate with your existing ERP system. There are multiple POS solutions out there today, but not all of them will integrate with your current business systems. It’s important to fully research different POS options before deciding to buy. No matter your industry, your software needs to be able to communicate with itself, and choosing the right POS system is an important step to having a fully streamlined business.
