Why choose SAP Customer Checkout POS for your small retail business

Number one is that the best point-of-sale (POS) systems do more than just process transactions. They have to be integrated into the IT architecture and interact with other systems (e.g. your ERP) to streamline your daily workflow. Make sure that the features and functions provided by the POS system cover your business needs. Review its compatibility with third-party processors and hardware as well as deployment options – according to research performed by Gorspa, 62% of new business owners prefer cloud-based systems.

Started in 2014, SAP Customer Checkout POS was designed for small Retail, Entertainment, and Food and Beverage businesses that covers all common POS requirements and it is optimized to be used with SAP Business One, an affordable ERP for SMEs with retail-specific functionality.

This POS software for small retail businesses helps you with merchandise sales and returns, merchandise sales and returns, cashing up and daily accounts, discount and voucher management, payment with cash, cards, and vouchers, integration of customer orders (down payments, invoices), loyalty management, and more.
