Point of Sale (POS)

The sales process:

The Panther POS offers an Internet savvy, retail quality sales process for small or large retailers and industrial distributors. It provides a complete cash register solution, allowing cash, credit card, and check sales. It's flexible and can handle deposits, trade-ins, gift certificates, employee sales, no-tax sales, voids, item discounts, refunds, and more.

A unique feature of the Panther POS is its ability to interrupt a sale in process, by putting it on hold. In a small store environment where there may be one cash register and multiple sales people, this feature can be invaluable. The next time a customer can't make up their mind or wants to go pick out another item mid-way through ringing them up, just put the sale on hold. That immediately frees up the register for another customer and salesperson. When the first customer is ready to finish, the salesperson simply recalls the sale and completes the transaction.

Hardware support:

POS terminals can come in many shapes and sizes. Panther is able to use a wide variety of terminals, but is particularly well suited to use low-cost standard PC's or PC based POS terminals. Touch screens are highly recommended. The software supports terminals on wireless and wired networks. A particularly useful terminal is our wireless portable touch screen pad.

Terminals can be connected to a server located on-site, or can be part of a larger wide area network connecting many sites, servers, and terminals through the use of low cost DSL or Cable Modems. Low speed dial up connections can be used under special circumstances.

Standard POS accessories and peripheral devices are fully supported, such as cash drawers, bar-code scanners, report printers, receipt printers, invoice printers, label printers and bar-code printers.

Reporting:

Standard recurring reports include daily sales reports, daily register reports, monthly sales reports, and list reports by bank and credit card.

Non-recurring reports include snapshot register reports, tax-exempt transaction reports with tax ID numbers, and history reports from invoices and sales.
