Cash Till, Barcoding and Retail Systems

The Cash Till module is a simplified invoicing procedure designed for a cash sale retail operation. It has a link to till slip printers and cash drawers; receipts are usually printed on the slip printer but full invoices can also be produced. The Till Sales program is fully integrated with both the Sales Ledger and the Nominal Ledger and all postings are updated immediately. This system can also accommodate barcode scanning to further speed up the point of sale process; manufacturer’s barcodes can be used and the system has the ability to generate and print barcodes for items that are unlabelled by the supplier. A comprehensive End of Day report analyses the cash and monies taken by each till to assist with the reconciliation of the cash drawer. An end of shift/day/week report can be produced by till to show profit value and percentage by operator and payment type. An automatic cash allocation program matches invoices with receipts from customers and allocates these transactions together on the Sales Ledger accounts.

This option is ideal for a retail shop or country store environment, it has the ability to speed up the checkout process and reduce the cost of cash sale transactions. It retains many of the features typical of the Ibcos stock control system and is therefore more flexible than many dedicated EPOS systems in an environment that mixes cash and account sales. The till transactions are handled through the back office with exactly the same process as normal full invoice transactions, and benefit from complete system uniformity and integration.
