3 Benefits of Integrating Stock Management & Ordering Systems with Your POS

Keeps everything on Your POS*

Integrating stock management and ordering functions with your POS system allows you to coordinate all the processes via one centralised location, no matter the scale of your venue.

Having all this information in one location means you can monitor your inventory, sort out your stock orders, pay your suppliers’ invoices, manage your purchase orders, research vendor information and much more.

Real time syncing**

Merging your stock management with your POS system gives you and your staff up-to-the-minute accuracy over stock levels. Whenever you take an order, your stock levels will adjust accordingly.

With this feature, you’ll never run out of a key ingredient again, you’ll never have to go red-raced to a customer to explain you’ve run out of their favourite dish and you won’t have to worry about over-ordering and having to chuck it weeks later when it expires.

Complete control

If you’ve been in the hospitality business for a while, you probably remember the days of scrounging around for an important invoice or a misplaced purchase order. Luckily, those days are over because an integrated stock system gives you complete control.

Use your POS terminal to email suppliers, log all your transactions and to manage the whole ordering process. When you receive orders, you can even scan the barcodes to log and update your inventory automatically.

*Not all stock management and ordering systems are available via your POS; some are hosted on a separate platform. **Similarly, not all systems feature real-time syncing. Call Impos on 1300308615 to discuss more about these benefits.
