Is Point of Sale Systems Better Than Cash Registers?
Whether you are into the retail business or deal with a considerable
amount of cash, it is crucial to keep them safe at all times. Point of sale
(pos) systems are better for many industries for their work environment.
It can many times speed up the ordering process time, especially for a
restaurant like a deli, and can correct any errors. From personal experience,
those errors made on the cash register are no longer made on the point of sale
system. For some reason, it seems like those previously "free" soda
pops are now getting charged for again.
There are three main advantages POS systems:
CUSTOMER SERVICE
Instead of looking down at the buttons on the cash register to ring a
customer up, now you can look at a computer screen directly in front of you,
being able to quickly glance at the customer, serving them to your fullest
advantage.
ERRORS
Errors are reduced because now the orders are printed on tickets and not
by hand. As the customer gives the order, it can easily be entered into the
computer. The cashier is better able to keep track of what is going on and
realizes that if they don't get it into the computer, it will not be made. This
saves money!
EASE OF USE
A cash register has limited keys. A point of sale may have hundreds of
buttons, which will make it easier for the cashier. "Who wants to push
"MENU" then the number?" or something along those lines.
A POS system makes transactions easy and theft hard. Now you will have a
record of who took the order and who opened the cash drawer.
I recommend Master Distributors' range of POS systems. This system seems
to be the best, and as I have found, errors were reduced by a considerable
margin, and the pos system is almost foolproof and very resistant to hard use.
Anyone who can count money can now calculate the till. For more
