POS Nation | Retail POS Software Demo by Samantha Creasy - YouTube

Hello, my name is Samantha with POS Nation. Today we're going to give you a

brief overview of our retail point of sale system. Thanks for taking a few

moments to watch this video. Behind me is the retail setup. We have a cash drawer,

receipt printer, a barcode scanner, and our all-in-one touchscreen PC. This unit

has a card reader attached to the side. We also offer a few other hardware

options, including integrated scales, customer displays, and pin pads to accept

EMV and debit payments. For customers that are going for a little bit sleeker

look or need a mobile option, we do offer a tablet with the same software. I have

an employee card that we include with all of our orders so your employees can

swipe easily in and out of the system. We can track our employee hours even if

they're not a cashier by clicking this time screen on the main page. Swipe our

card, clock in, and we're ready to go. I'll swipe my card again to enter into the

system. Here's the home screen. We can go ahead and start ringing up items from

here. Cashiers can learn to use the system in as little as 10 to 15 minutes and be

ready to go for the day. But as a manager or business owner, there's a lot of great

features that I'll show you today that can help build your business. We'll go

ahead and add an inventory item, we'll click through to our administrative, and

then to our inventory maintenance. To add the item number, all we'll do is use our

scanner to enter the barcode, then add the description of the item. If we want

to, we can enter the cost to track our our profits, as well as, of course, the

price we're planning to charge. And then we'll add the number in stock — right now

we've got 31 in stock. If you'd like to link this item to a vendor to help you

with your reordering, we can do that as well. We'll enter the quantity we want to

reorder and the reorder level, which is the point at which we'd like to reorder

our stock. We can track that by the case or the can. So we'll go ahead and exit out of

this screen after we have it set up, and then easily

ring the item up. We can enter other options on this screen, whether we want

to increase the number being sold or perhaps discount it. We can also track

this purchase to an individual customer. We can look them up and enter their

information so we can track their purchases and even allow them to be on a

customer loyalty plan. We can enter their name, phone number, email address, in case

we want to contact them at a later point. The system will even keep track of their

historical purchases in case a customer comes back looking for an item they've

previously purchased. We'll exit that and go ahead and complete the transaction.

We'll pay and choose the tender type. We'll just go ahead and pay with cash.

The drawer will pop, we can make change for our customer, as well as print a receipt.

And that's as easy as it is! Business owners and managers can take advantage

of some of the more robust features of the system, like the reporting. So we'll

take a look at a couple of reports now. We'll go into that screen so we can look

at a couple of those. One of my favorites is the detailed daily report that will

let you look at the departments and the sales for the day. We'll go ahead and

display that. This report will allow you to see which areas of your store are

doing better than others and what you've sold over the last day, week, year,

depending on how you set the report up. Another great report is our flash report.

It'll give you a detailed summary of the payment types accepted, your total sales

for the day, week, month, however you set it up. You can also see how much dollars of tax

you've collected so you'll know what to pay. You can see that we've collected

cash, checks, credit, debit, etc. When it's time to replenish your inventory, the

system comes with a purchase order feature that will save you a lot of time.

We can easily create a purchase order to send to our vendor electronically or

just print it out. By tracking your inventory in the system,

we'll know when our items need to be replenished and they'll automatically

populate on the report. So let's add a new purchase order, choose our vendor, and

then add the items. You can see we have the Coca-Cola there and we'll click this

button 'reorder low stock items' after which you'll see the coca-cola, which is

lower than what we've set it at, will come on the screen here. It'll order 36

cans to bring our inventory back up to 50, which is where we have it set. We can

send this to our vendor and when the stock is delivered we can go ahead and

just hit this button here, 'receive all' so we don't have to manually change the

inventory numbers. And now our Coca-Cola is back in stock. So those are just a few

features. We focused mostly on the inventory, but I'd be happy to set up a

time to do a personalized live demo with you so we can discuss the features that

will be applicable to your business. Thanks for taking a few minutes to watch

the video — see you soon.
