Feature
Point of sale checkout software for Kenyan shops
A fast, controlled till that keeps stock and customer accounts up to date as you sell.
What it does
The BluNext POS checkout is where cashiers scan or search for items, apply permitted discounts, take payment and print a receipt. Every completed sale updates stock, the customer account if the sale is on credit, and the open register shift.
The problem it solves
Slow queues, wrong prices and unrecorded discounts cost shops money every day. When the till is separate from stock, the shelf count and the sales record drift apart and nobody can say why.
How it works
- Scan or search
- Items are added by barcode or by name or code search. Weighed goods can be sold in fractions.
- Hold and resume
- A sale can be parked while the customer fetches another item, so the queue keeps moving.
- Discounts and price changes
- Discounts, price changes and overrides are permission-controlled and can need a supervisor.
- Returns and voids
- Returns and voids are recorded against the original sale with the user responsible.
- Receipts
- Receipts print to ESC/POS thermal printers.
A practical example
A cashier opens a shift, scans a customer's items, applies a loyalty customer and takes payment. A later return is processed against the same sale, so stock goes back on the shelf and the shift report reflects the refund.
Benefits
- Shorter queues
- Barcode checkout and held sales reduce waiting.
- Fewer leaks
- Permissions and an audit trail make discounts and voids visible.
- Accurate stock
- Each sale reduces stock automatically.
