myPOS Networking Options
The myPOS system has available all the networking options required for most Store/Hotel operations. These include small and large one-owner operations, medium size multi Store/Hotel operations and large corporate state or national operations. Please note that the latest technology in network hardware is used.
Hotel/ Restaurant Network
With large hotels, a master system is often installed in the back office to allow administration functions to take place away from the sales area. However, the main register can be used for full office functionality with password control.
Multi-Store Communications System
Multiple stores can be linked to each other and to Head Office. All stores can be controlled by Head Office at a single location. Stock transfers are made with ease. Head Office is also connected to the major suppliers for electronic orders and invoicing. The suppliers linked to myPOS include ILG, ALM, Tooheys, HLW, Metcash and Campbell’s Cash & Carry.
Note:
FTP/ Email/ Internet communications to the liquor suppliers automates the ordering process. Once the order has arrived into the store and been verified for price and quantity, a simple keystroke will update the creditor and inventory files. There is no manual data entry for these tasks except for the initial order (orders can be generated from the reorder screen).
myPOS Tablet
myPOS Mobile is a new feature exclusive to myPOS v5. myPOS Mobile Software is loaded onto a handheld PDA, which then acts as a mobile register. The advantages of this function include fast and efficient customer service, as orders and sales are processed instantaneously. A key advantage of myPOS Mobile is that it connects with the Master system to have real time sales. myPOS Mobile also operates as a standalone register.
Utilising myPOS Mobile :
Wait staff can place food and drink orders at restaurants and cafes at different tables with the handheld PDA. These orders are then processed instantly in the bar or kitchen for fast and efficient service.
Sales can be processed in any location. For example, sales may be processed from any location in a bottle shop by staff when they are dealing with customers, rather than having one point-of-sale register.
myPOS Mobile takes the possibilities of customer service to a new level. In your competitive industry, mobile sales and ordering will keep you ahead of the rest.
myPOS Main Features and Benefits
- By knowing your GP exactly (day-to-day), margins can be improved by systematically increasing prices (while ensuring sales are not affected) or repositioning high margin stock to improve its sales. It is not unreasonable to expect a minimum improvement of 0.5%. in a store turning over $15,000 per week. 0.5% margin improvement is $75 which more than pays for the system on a weekly lease basis.
- Electronic invoices and orders can be entered into the system automatically via modem with the Electronic Trading Modules. Any cost price changes (ie invoices showing cost price variation from the previous order) from electronically or manually entered invoices will show the new margin and allow the option of changing the selling price to maintain the desired profit margin. Indeed, it is this feature that helps eliminate the erosion of profit through the small but gradual cost increases.
- Stock Control and suggested order reports aids the reorder process by highlighting the high and low volume lines, their profitability and those products that are not moving at all.
- Bar transfers and regular manual stock takes can be recorded with the system providing margin and discrepancy reports by location in addition to the consolidated reports.
- Kitchen Printing with modifiers and Table Balance Control (Part Pay, Move Tables etc)
- The Stock Control features will eliminate the need for external stock takers - a direct saving and your management information is available at any time.
- It would not be impossible to reduce your stock by 10% to 20% because of the greater accuracy in suggested ordering.
- Specials can be controlled by setting a start and end date. The sales, profit and markdown of these items over this period will help determine the effectiveness of the specials.
- Shelf Label software (myPOS labels) allows users to customise the layout of their labels and advertised specials. The label software also has the option to including 'tasting notes'. That is information on the taste, or any other information you would like to include on the label (up to four lines). This is a necessary feature for great customer service.
- Return on investment reporting by department and group. For example, Chardonnays may be 10% of your investment, returning 8% of your profit while Cabernet may be 25% of your investment and returning say 9% of your profit. This could mean that Cabernet wines are either over stocked or the margins aren't high enough to justify the amount of the investment.
- Best Profit & Sales reports to maximise effectiveness of stock shelf and floor location.
- Frequent Buyers Point System.
- Data extraction to Excel and MYOB/XERO.
- Quotation system for customer tracking.
