INTRODUCTION

The process of bringing goods from manufacturers through wholesalers and retailers to consumers is called commodity circulation. It includes not only the physical movement of goods from places of production to places of consumption, but also operations related to their storage, sorting and preparation for sale at trade enterprises.

The relevance of the work lies in the fact that one of the important factors in significantly accelerating the process of selling goods and serving customers is the automation of cash register operations based on modern high-performance electronic cash registers. The checkout line is an outpost of self-service stores. The impression that the store leaves with the buyer depends on the speed of work and the friendliness of the cashier. This means business economics. To improve the efficiency of the checkout, retailers are trying to teach cashiers not only to work quickly, but also to smile affably. At the same time, they buy equipment that reduces the role of the human factor, and do not forget to think about ergonomics. To equip shops should be used cash registersallowing to conduct not only settlements with customers, study customer demand, take into account the number of customers, but also process magnetic and microprocessor cards, as well as the store's own prepaid-discount cards. A computer cash register, which is a specially equipped computer, meets these requirements to the greatest extent. With its help, you can introduce store plastic cards, which not only simplify settlement operations, but also allow you to systematically work to improve your marketing activities... The use of store cards contributes to the growth of the store's turnover and allows it to receive additional borrowed funds. The introduction of an automated system for working with plastic cards by the store allows maintaining a permanent customer base and tracking the dynamics of their purchases.

The object of this work is the organization of the work of the controller-cashier.

The subject of the research is the spatial arrangement and equipment of the workplace of the controller-cashier.

In accordance with the subject of the study, its main goal is to determine, on the basis of the considered theoretical and practical provisions, the problems of modernizing the spatial arrangement and equipping the workplace of the controller-cashier.

The importance of proper organization of workplaces and settlements with customers in retailers

Settlement transactions with customers play an important role in the trade and technological process of the store. The time spent by buyers to purchase goods depends on their correct organization. The efficiency of the cash register depends on such factors as the professionalism of the cashier, the ergonomics of his workplace; equipment capabilities, reliability and ease of maintenance software.

Settlements with buyers can be carried out by accepting money directly by the seller, cashier or controller-cashier and at the same time recording the amount received using the cash register. Cash registers provide clarity, simplicity and correctness of the calculation, control over the conduct of settlement and cash operations, and the accuracy of accounting for cash receipts. At the same time, the process of settlements with customers is significantly accelerated.

The design of modern cash registers allows you to keep track of the cumulative total of money received from buyers, print a check with various data, print the serial number of the check, the amount paid, the code, the counter number on the control tape. At the same time, their indicators indicate the amount spent, the code and the counter number. The information received in cash registers can be displayed on a magnetic or perforated tape with subsequent processing of the data on electronic computers in order to study demand, determine the volume of sales of goods, etc.

Customers place the selected goods in an inventory basket or trolley and deliver them to the settlement center. Here, the settlement takes place both for the goods selected by the buyer and for the goods delivered to him through the service counter (in stores where not all goods are sold using the self-service method). Seller (cashier or other employee of a store, kiosk, etc.) accepting cash money, must make settlements with the buyer in the following order:

Clearly name the amount of money received from the buyer, and put this money separately in a prominent place for the buyer (not in a money box, that is, in the so-called cash desk - a bill to a bill, but so that you can see your hard-earned money):

1) knock out a check;

2) tell the buyer the amount of change to be issued and hand it over with the check:

And only then place the money received from the buyer in a money box in a cash register or another place for a similar purpose.

In the event of a dispute about an error in the delivery of change, the buyer has the right to require the seller to reconcile the readings control tape cash register with the actual amount of money on hand.

By the way, the seller is obliged to accept old bills from buyers, which are not allowed for further circulation.

At the settlement node, the buyer is given cashier's checks, serving as confirmation of the correctness of calculations, and, if necessary, the basis for the exchange of goods. It is forbidden to arrange double control in settlements with buyers. The store administration has the right to conduct only a random check of the correctness of payment and control the work of the cashier.

In order to speed up settlement transactions with customers, it is recommended to equip the store with a single settlement unit. The intensity of the work of cashiers-checkers during peak hours should be regulated. For settlements with buyers who have made small purchases (1-2 items), "express cash desks" are distinguished. Acceleration of settlements with customers is also facilitated by the use of high-speed and automated cash registers, as well as mechanized settlement units with a mechanism for automatic delivery of change, a conveyor for moving goods and other devices that facilitate and accelerate settlement transactions with customers.

The sale of goods ends with a settlement with buyers and the issuance of purchases to them. These operations can be performed at the workplace of a seller or a cashier-controller.

When selling technically complex goods with a warranty period, in addition to the listed operations, the seller must make a mark in the product passport, write sales receipt and give a copy to the buyer.

Large amounts of cash proceeds are received by trade enterprises. It is necessary to ensure the correct accounting of funds, strict control over their safety and their timely delivery to the bank.

Cash proceeds of trade enterprises are the main source of financing and lending to various sectors of the national economy, payments wages, pensions, scholarships. Bank loans enable organizations and enterprises to purchase goods for sale to the population, procure agricultural products, develop construction and production, that is, to carry out all the necessary trade and economic operations. Timely and complete delivery of proceeds is of great importance not only for the development of trade, but also for the entire economy of the country.

Properly organized accounting and control of cash receipts - necessary condition observance of the principles of rational management in trade and the safety of inventory. Settlements with buyers and accounting of the amounts received from them are carried out either directly by the seller, or by a specially designated employee - the cashier-controller.

With a non-mechanized method of calculation, the seller accepts money for the goods sold, he also stores, calculates and hands them over. At the same time, their storage deteriorates, accounting of funds becomes more complicated, labor productivity of sales workers decreases, sanitary and hygienic requirements are violated.

Most effective method settlement with customers - an automated method using cash registers (KKM). It provides accurate accounting of cash receipts and control of the sale of goods, allows you to check the correctness of settlement and cash transactions, reduces the time required for settlements, increases the productivity of cashiers, reduces to a minimum the possibility of errors in calculations, provides information on the volume of sales of goods and quantity serviced customers by working shift hours.

Maria Pravdina - on how to qualitatively automate business processes at a retail outlet

IT tools used by Maria Pravdina

  • 1C: Document flow
  • 1C: UNF

Since July 1, 2017, almost all Russian retail has renewed its cash register fleet. In a year, those who are still legally exempted from the use of this control technique will also acquire cash registers. It's time to use this occasion to make something pleasant not only for the Federal Tax Service, but also for your customers. Maria Pravdina, an expert at 1C, spoke about how to organize a smart workplace and a convenient cash point in your store.

Firm's project manager "1C" , an expert in software for small and medium businesses. Education: Faculty of Economic Cybernetics, MESI. In the company "1C" - since 2006, is engaged in the promotion of services for automation of management and accounting (including solutions for the integration of 1C solutions with state information systems).



Modern requirements to software for retail

The standard equipment of the cash register in the store is the cash register itself, scales (if weighted goods are sold), an acquiring terminal for accepting cards. If the seller cares about the customer's comfort, he will put a special monitor so that a person can see how much money he has already collected goods. If he takes even more care, he will give the seller a scanner in his hands so that the process goes faster. And if he wants to build a long-term relationship with a client, he will try to organize a loyalty program - and give his beloved customer a store card.

Commercial equipment is the most important tool of a modern seller. But in order for it to work synchronously and profitably for the business, it needs "brains". These brains are usually the inventory control program. Usually it is installed on a computer, configured to work in one mode or another, and then the necessary equipment is connected to the same computer. If necessary, add new devices or replace old devices with more modern and convenient ones.

So let's start with the head. What kind of software should be used to manage this entire economy? Based on our extensive experience with 1C solutions and the breadth of application of these solutions, let's look at the basic requirements for software using the example of a product accounting solution. This program can be used to automate complex accounting at a point of sale, and as a tool for analyzing goods movement, and as a cash program.

What 1C: Retail can do

    Accounting for goods movement;

    Management of mutual settlements;

    Pricing;

    Assortment management;

    Marketing promotions and their evaluation;

    Maintaining customer databases;

    Inventory control;

    Purchase planning;

    Personnel Management;

    Personal sales accounting;

    Work with trade equipment;

    Store reporting and analytics;

    Integration with online stores, programs "1C: Trade Management", "1C: Management of our company" and "1C: Accounting 8"

So. If the program is on the trading floor, then, of course, any seller or consultant without special education should be able to register a sale in it and help the client find the right product. Therefore, 1C: Retail has a very simple interface for such tasks - “ Workplace cashier ".


Due to the replacement of cash registers with online cash registers, this interface has new opportunity - indicate the email or phone number of the buyer for the transmission of the electronic check. We remind you that in accordance with the law, the buyer must inform about the desire to receive electronic document before the first product breaks through.

When choosing the main trading solution, you need to pay attention to this point. Now actively developing state systems control of goods movement. For 2015-2017 introduced electronic declaration of VAT, EGAIS, marking fur products... The next step is the labeling system for medicines and veterinary products. The project of marking shoes and other commodity groups... Implementation of such systems on state level requires the appropriate quality of accounting in business. Moreover, the program in your store should be able to exchange data with state "clouds" - already created (like EGAIS) and future ones.

And now important point: 1C programs not only provide data, but also control the correctness of the work of managers and cashiers in the field. For example, they automatically check that the same check does not contain goods related to activities with different tax systems. So, when choosing "brains" for your retail business, look a little ahead - will the software be able to support the next legislative initiatives?

And the main thing within the framework of this topic is the requirement for product accounting - to be able to support not two or three types of trading equipment, but all popular trading technology, moreover, preferably from different manufacturers. For example, more than 300 models from several dozen manufacturers can be connected to 1C: Retail.

So if “1C: Retail” is installed as a “brain” in your store, building up a fleet of commercial equipment is literally a matter of technology. The only thing is that in this matter it is better to adhere to the "rule of three steps".

Step one: deciding on the equipment

First, as an entrepreneur, you must have a good understanding of what equipment and what you need. Below is a list of trading equipment and several reasons why its application would be appropriate in your outlet.

Online checkout... An unambiguous name for this type of equipment has not yet been established, and the cash desks are still called differently - both "online cash desks", and "new cash desks", and "CCP with data transfer", and "online cash registers", and "online fiscal registrar ". In fact, it is the same. It is fundamentally important that a fiscal drive (FN) is inserted into this device, and not an EKLZ. An online cash register at a retail outlet is a mandatory requirement of the law, and if not from this year, then from the next. The joint work of the cash desk with the accounting program is guaranteed to ensure the output of the nomenclature composition in the check, as required by law. The price of the product is always relevant, and the seller is free to change it only within the framework of the rights and rules established for him (for example, give a discount, but not more than 10%). We add to this information about real stock balances, control of suspicious transactions in the work of the cashier and the absence of problems with the transfer of data to the accounting department. The cost of the box office is from 18-20 thousand rubles.

Acquiring terminal. According to experts, a proven tool to increase the average check by 20-30%. Cost - from 10 thousand rubles. There are rental offers.

Electronic scales connected to a computer - to speed up the sale. An important psychological point: with such weights, customers feel more protected from the body kit, and for many this significantly increases the comfort of purchase. Cost - from 2,000 rubles.

Buyer Displays are needed for "clarity of the cash process", they usually display information about the price of a weight or piece goods, the total cost of purchase, delivery, etc. In addition, advertising information can be displayed on the display. Cost - from 4,000 rubles.

Barcode Scanner... In general, the use of barcoding technology is already a standard for the automation of normal point of sale and warehouse. Experience shows that the introduction of bar coding can significantly reduce the labor intensity of store maintenance. Add to this the accuracy of information, bandwidth and the modern image of your retail outlet. Scanners differ in the type of barcodes they can read. For example, to read alcohol markings, the scanner must be able to read 2D barcodes. The cost of the scanner is from 4,000 rubles.

Label printers. With the introduction of barcoding technology, this device will print internal codes for those goods that do not have a factory label or for goods own production... Creation (auto-generation) of a barcode image is performed directly in 1C: Retail, and then it can be printed either on a regular printer, or just on a label printer. What to use depends on the required quantity and quality of the stickers. Cost - from 6,000 rubles.

Data collection terminals... This is another handy tool for companies using barcoding technology. The device is usually used in warehouses - for receiving, moving or shipping goods. The principle of operation is simple - data from the 1C accounting system is loaded into the terminal, and in the process of work the storekeeper quickly scans the goods, taking them to the warehouse or sending them to the trading floor. After the end of the work, the accumulated data on the movement of goods is loaded from the terminal back into the accounting system ("synchronized", as IT specialists say). Cost - from 6,000 rubles.

RFID Readers... This is a fairly new class of equipment. RFID - Radio Frequency Identification, radio frequency identification is a contactless data exchange technology based on radio frequency electromagnetic radiation. RFID tags can only be produced industrially, they are used to identify and control various objects. For example, such tags are used for mandatory labeling of fur products. It is discussed that this technology will also be used in the new state information systems of marking planned for launch. If you are going to trade in labeled goods, then such equipment will definitely be required. Cost - from 30,000 rubles.

Magnetic card readersare used where a customer loyalty program is being implemented, and magnetic cards are used to identify such customers. In general, a loyalty program is essentially a CRM block in 1C: Retail itself. For me personally, as a buyer, it is more convenient to use not cards (I just lose them), but to be able to receive the promised bonuses and points either by last name or by phone number. This method can also be used in 1C: Retail. But magnetic cards are still in wide circulation, and this equipment is used to recognize them. Cost - from 2,000 rubles.

Step two: check the equipment
for compatibility with 1C

Let's say a list necessary equipment picked up. 1C: Retail is good at working with all these types of equipment. Therefore, now you just need to choose a specific model. At this step, we will find out what equipment is certified for 1C programs, and in particular for 1C: Retail. To do this, we turn to the 1C website. There are two lists here:

Of course, choosing a supplier does not end the process. You will also need to install and connect equipment, make settings in the program, and train personnel. You can cope with some tasks on your own, something will require the participation of specialists.

We will try to talk about the practice of automating a small outlet in subsequent articles. And we will finish this article with a small number of technical details about how the 1C company provides support for the integration of 1C: Retail and other programs with retail equipment.

How 1C provides support for commercial equipment,
or "library approach"

To work with commercial equipment, 1C has developed a software library of connected equipment, which includes a set of tools and mechanisms for working with equipment, as well as the technology of embedding the necessary functionality into applied solutions on the 1C: Enterprise 8.3 platform.

The library's functionality provides equipment administration, installation of the necessary drivers, configuration of connection parameters, etc. This functionality is universal and does not depend on specific equipment models and manufacturers.

Using the library allows you to quickly maintain wide range models in standard 1C programs - "1C: Management of our company", "1C: Trade management", "1C: Accounting 8", "1C: ERP" and others. It also helps to add the necessary functional blocks to customized application solutions - those that have already been heavily redesigned for business specifics and cannot be updated in the usual way. The library is available to registered users of PROF version programs if they have a 1C: ITS agreement on the website "1C User Support"or on the website 1C: ITS .


The library approach ensures the methodological unity of all 1C solutions and fast support for changes in programs and online service 1C ... This library has already been used in projects related to ensuring interaction between business applications of users and state information systems: EGAIS, a system for marking fur products, 54-FZ. The developers plan to use the same system for future projects. Therefore, no difficulties in supporting the new rules in 1C software are expected.

"1C: Library of connected equipment 8" supports all of the above types of equipment: CCP with data transmission (54-FZ), barcode scanner, magnetic card reader, data collection terminal, customer display, acquiring terminal, electronic scales, scales with label printing, RFID reader, label printer, etc.

As new types of commercial equipment appear on the market, this list will expand. For equipment manufacturers, 1C has a unified certification program for compatibility with the 1C: Enterprise software system starting from version 8.3. Certification rules are public ... In general, the 1C company performs certification free of charge, but if the equipment and drivers provided twice did not meet the requirements, then starting from the third attempt it will cost the manufacturer 6,000 rubles.

The workplace of a cashier-controller in a self-service store means a part trading floorequipped with special equipment for settlements with customers.

The workplace of the controller-cashier should be considered as one of the most important and responsible areas of the store. The time spent on the purchase of goods, the throughput of the store, the safety of inventories and, to a large extent, the culture of customer service largely depend on its organization.

the main task rational organization the workplace of the controller-cashier is to ensure high efficiency of his work, maximum throughput of the working unit with a high culture of customer service. The level of organization of the workplace of the controller-cashier is determined by its layout, equipment and equipment. When organizing the workplace of the controller-cashier, the following must be taken into account:

  • * the cash register is located at the exit from the trading floor, and with a box system - at the exit from the area of \u200b\u200bthe boxes;
  • * the area around the checkout booths should ensure the smooth movement of buyers;
  • * the flow of buyers should pass to the left of the cashier-controller, so that he can work with his right hand at the cash register, and with his left hand, check the purchased goods.

It is important that the settlement units are compact and occupy a small area, and their location corresponds to the direction of the flow of buyers and excludes their oncoming traffic.

When placing inventory at the workplace of the controller-cashier, it is necessary to observe following rules:

  • * the workplace should have everything you need and there should be nothing superfluous;
  • * each object must have its own permanent place, which ensures the automatism of working movements;
  • * items that are more often required to perform work should be located closer to the employee;
  • * it is necessary to separate objects that the employee takes with his right and left hand;
  • * items used in sequence must be placed side by side so that reverse hand movements can be used;
  • * all items must be placed within the reach of the employee's hands [10, p. 36].

The level of organization of the workplace and the productivity of the controller-cashier largely depend on the correct choice of the type of cash register machines.

When choosing the type of cash register, factors such as the volume of turnover, the method of selling goods, the number of sections (departments), the average purchase price, the intensity of customer flows, and the performance of the cash register are taken into account.

Maintenance of the cash register, checking its serviceability, as well as cleaning the cash register and inventory is carried out by the controller-cashier, and the administration of the store provides the workplace with a change, the necessary packaging materials and care products for the cash register.

Throughout the working day, the cashier-controller must keep order at his workplace, the cleanliness and correct location of equipment and devices, using his free time to eliminate any deficiencies noticed.

In the event of a machine malfunction, the controller-cashier is obliged to take urgent measures to eliminate it, and, if necessary, call a mechanic. Periodically, at least once a month, the mechanic must inspect the machine, lubricate it, check the operation of individual units.

The controller-cashier is responsible for the organization and condition of his workplace, and the store administration exercises control over the correct organization of payments.

With the rational organization of settlements with customers, the controller-cashier performs his actions in the following sequence:

  • * clearly names the amount of money received and puts it in full view of the buyer;
  • * prints a receipt on a cash register;
  • * names the amount of due change and issues it along with the check;
  • * after the final settlement, puts the money received from the buyer into the cash drawer.

The controller-cashier in his work must be guided by the Laws "On Trade", "On Protection of Consumer Rights", the Rules for the implementation of retail trade separate types goods and catering, sanitary regulations, other regulations, as well as orders, instructions and instructions of the head (administration) of the trading facility.

The controller-cashier must organize his workplace at the end of the working day. In the morning, having come to work, he gets the key to the cash register from the senior cashier, a change fund for money, cash accessories, control and receipt tapes, then goes to the workplace and checks the safety and sanitary conditions. If necessary, he wipes the floor, takes out debris, removes dust near the cash register. The cashier-controller, in the presence of the senior cashier, takes the meter readings at the beginning of the working day and draws up the cashier-operator's book. Then he closes the checkout and goes to check the availability of assortment near the checkout. If there is not enough, then it replenishes. Also checks prices and marks everything in his notebook. And at the appointed time begins to serve customers. In his spare time, the controller-cashier helps the sellers.

The controller-cashier must always know and accurately fulfill his duties:

Serve customers politely and courteously, do not enter into disputes and bickering, do not be distracted from the performance of their duties. In the event of a conflict with the buyer, invite the manager (administration) of the shopping facility.

Ensure an exemplary order at the workplace throughout the working day, the availability of packaging materials and inventory, promptly inform the administration about the absence of goods on sale and other comments from buyers.

Know the rules of trade in goods of this group, techniques for displaying and packaging goods, the procedure for storing goods and the timing of their sale, rules for using measures and measuring instruments, checking weights, signs of the solvency of state banknotes, the established procedure for accepting and returning money, checks and checkbooks, rules sanitation and hygiene, safety regulations and fire prevention measures, the procedure for the exchange of goods.

Advise buyers about the purpose, properties, quality of goods. Offer new, interchangeable products.

Sell \u200b\u200bgoods only if there are correctly designed price labels, rules for decoding the article and marking.

To study the device of the cash register and operation, to be able to organize a workplace.

Be able to work on a cash register and consistently perform customer service operations.

To be able to finish work on a cash register, collect cash receipts and draw up a cash register of money.

To be able to draw up entries in the book of a cashier-operator.

The cashier-controller is prohibited from changing banknotes, keeping personal belongings and money at the workplace.

The cashier-controller carries financial responsibility for all cash receipts to the cashier.

Monitor the serviceability and correct operation of the cash register, refuel the control and check tape in the cash machine, record the meter readings, translate the numerators to zeros, install the sensor [11, p. 64].

At the end of the working day, the cashier-controller completes the work at the cash register. He takes out all the available bills from the cash drawer and arranges them according to their value. Calculates the number of bills and earnings per day, and based on this, draws up a bill of money. Then, in the presence of the senior cashier, he takes the meter readings and draws up the book of the cashier-operator. After that, he goes to the main cashier and hands over the proceeds, the key, all available documents and cash accessories. Then he returns to the workplace and cleans it. And only after that he goes home.

Being one of the most profitable commercial activities, modern trade most dependent on technical progress. Business automation is far from a whim. These are absolutely necessary improvements, without which it is already impossible to expand turnover and make a profit.

The use of cash register equipment, software, tracking solutions and logistics significantly accelerates the customer service process. Customers don't like to wait. They often don't care what size the store is. The main thing is that the queue at the checkout should move faster, and information on the availability of goods in the warehouse should be clarified in a matter of seconds. Sometimes the seller of a small boutique can't find a shirt of the right color for half an hour just because the owner decided to save money on a barcode scanner and accounting software. As a result, the indignant buyer himself leaves for another store, and manages to tell others about the sluggishness of the would-be seller.

Modern workplace of the cashier: equipment

Reasonable entrepreneurs pay special attention to equipping the cashier's workplace with a modern POS system. You can design a cashier in different ways. It all depends on the specifics of the product being sold, for example:

  • IN grocery store it is better to install a cash register with a pulling tape. This will allow shoppers to start uploading their purchases early and speed up the cashier's work.
  • A trendy clothing boutique has enough table to easily fit all the POS equipment. Items with barcodes will simply be brought up to the scanner.

Let's consider each of the system elements in more detail:

A personal computer forms the basis of an integral complex of commercial equipment. It is required to connect peripheral devices and run the automation program. The best option Is the latest model fanless system unit.

- the most important component necessary for enterprises, organizations and individual entrepreneurs, which are on the general and simplified taxation system. In the internal memory of the fiscal registrar, all information about cash settlements with customers is recorded and stored.

The main task of the device is to accelerate customer service and quickly print receipts. There are many options for fiscal registrars. Often their name contains the abbreviation PTK, which denotes more advanced modern models (for example, SHTRIH-LIGHT-PTK). In general, when choosing a fiscal registrar, one must proceed from the following conditions:

  • the total volume of trade;
  • quantity commodity nomenclatureto be entered into the device memory;
  • the amount of data that should be placed on the receipt (the so-called choice of print width);
  • availability of convenient interfaces for connection with a PC and peripheral devices.

Fiscal registrars for UTII are created for enterprises and individual entrepreneurs - payers of the single tax on imputed income. These persons are exempted from the use of cash registers, however, according to Federal Law No. 162, they are required to issue a check established sample at the request of the buyer.

Basic information regarding purchases and settlements is displayed on the monitor. Today the lineup of monitors for POS systems is quite wide and includes monochrome, liquid crystal, LCD models, as well as touchscreens. High quality images of POS monitors, can significantly facilitate the work of the cashier. It depends on contrast, resolution and color range. The type of device and the size of the diagonal are also important. Especially convenient are monitors with a touchscreen - a sensor that is significantly faster than a keyboard and mouse.

A modern programmable keyboard plays a special role in the operation of the POS system. It is fundamentally different from the usual one, because:

  • designed to manage automated systemrather than for entering character data;
  • keys are not bound to code sequences (macros).

The use of a programmable keyboard can also speed up turnover by streamlining the customer service process.

- an indispensable element for reading commodity codes in the process cash service buyers. With its help, any position can be found in the database in a matter of seconds.

Depending on the type of barcodes recognized, scanners can be one- or two-dimensional. The latter are used to read special QR codes on bottles with alcoholic beverages. Without such scanners, it is impossible to establish correct interaction with the EGAIS system and comply with all legal requirements.

Convenient handheld scanners have built-in decoding circuitry that analyzes image data from the sensor. Decryptions are sent to the output port, where the barcodes are recognized and transmitted to a PC, POS terminal or cash register. This creates a streamlined and convenient system for collecting and processing information about the product.

Unlike portable wireless models, stationary multi-lane scanners are more convenient for trading light and compact products such as clothing. Devices recognize barcodes at any angle.

They are irreplaceable in warehouses and shops selling weight products - vegetables, cereals, confectionery.

Cash drawers are designed to safely store and transport cash.

A magnetic card reader is required for quick user identification in the system. Such devices significantly optimize the process of granting access to cashiers and controllers. The most convenient are readers built into the keyboard, although the readers as separate devices have not yet completely lost their relevance

Is one of the most important elements of a modern POS system. The number of buyers who want to pay with a card is rapidly approaching the total number of visitors to modern stores. Bank terminals are needed everywhere.

Practice shows that even a small failure of the cashless payment system at the checkout can provoke an angry reaction from customers in a stopped line. What can we say about the complete absence of a terminal!

Summing up all that has been said, it remains to note that saving on the arrangement of the cash register means depriving yourself of profit and a good reputation among customers. The money invested in trading automation will certainly pay off in the near future. And in order for the process of installing and launching a modern POS system to be successful, you need to turn to professionals. There are many companies on the domestic market that specialize in technical issues. One of them is Polysystems. Here not only sell trade softwarebut also provide it technical supportas well as escort. The company's specialists will provide ready solution Turnkey and run the system using the latest software.

By entrusting the automation of a trading enterprise to professionals, you do not have to worry that your activity is legal. Specialists are equally closely monitoring both technical innovations and changes in the legislative and regulatory framework.
