   ► Manual  :     Overview of POSI capabilities

 

          POSI is a point of sale software otherwise known as a retail management system.  This software was commissioned by retail chain Cheri Kids in year 2004 to replace their aging DOS-based pos system. Since then, based on continual inputs from customers we have added countless features to the system while ensuring that accuracy and ease of use are never compromised.

We ask not that you believe us based on what we say but to test out our demo software which can be requested from us.  You can also go to our online MANUAL HERE to see what kind of capabilities POSI possesses.

Being a complex suite of software, potential buyers of any pos system should carefully study and test out the various functions and features in any offer in order to make an informed and safe buy.  Because of their complexity pos systems are notorious for bugs and errors, and also for lack of user-friendliness.

We assure you that POSI pos system will stand out as a most reliable and capable software to meet your needs of saving on manpower and providing critical business intelligence via the sale reports.

That said, no pos system is ever complete because business processes differ from company to company.  For this reason our software can also be further customized to fit end-users' requirements.
 

Standalone or Networked

        POSI has been designed both as a standalone system for small retail outlets and as a networked system for larger outlets like departmental stores.

This software comes with a MsAccess database that is used to input and output inventory, sale, vendor and other data. As this database can run on any PC, a single shop can use this software as a turnkey solution.

For a larger store with multiple pos terminals, they can share a single database - be it MsAccess or MsSQL database - using a cabled or wireless LAN (local area network).

This networking feature can potentially be further extended by having the central database kept at a remote location such as a regional head office and accessed by retail terminals via VPN (virtual private network) or Internet.

A variation of this is for each shop to use its own local database. At the same time, the remote head office through VPN can still access the shops' databases, thus allowing the head office to know in realtime the performance of each and every shop. This arrangement eliminates the risk of a systemic failure due to a breakdown of the head office's server or the Internet connection.

We have also implemented a synchronization functionality that ensures that in the event of drop connection - for remote networking with a central database at HQ - sale can still be processed and subsequently the HQ database can be updated. All these are automated requiring no intervention on the part of the staff.


POSI suitable for Retail, Wholesale & General Invoicing

        During sale, POSI can issue not only mini receipts but also A4/A5-size receipts that may be required by certain types of business.

POSI further has a "Delivery Order" module. This is the capability to issue A4-sized D.O./invoice with outstanding amount to be settled later. 

This feature can be used  for delivery-based businesses like gardening products, furniture or for a "layaway" sale - whereby a receipt with deposit made for reservation of certain items can be issued to the customer with the balance to be paid upon delivery/collection of the goods. 

Similarly distribution/wholesale businesses can use such a feature in POSI to generate D.O./invoices on consignment, credit or C.O.D. terms.

See FEATURES for a comprehensive list of capabilities of POSI.
