A till that balances itself at the end of the shift

We analyze your till sales and closing, and implement Odoo Point of Sale connected to inventory, card terminals, accounting and e-invoicing.

35questions, 9 minutes and your result at the end

What it is: Point of sale (POS)

Sale, payment and closing in the same record

A point of sale records every sale at the till or kiosk, processes payment methods, issues the receipt and controls the closing. Properly connected, each sale reduces stock and reaches accounting.

Without it, cashiers balance by hand and the back office reconciles card payments days after closing.

Signs your company needs one

  • The till is balanced by hand every day
  • Credit sales are tracked in a notebook
  • Electronic receipts are rejected or sent late
  • Voids need no authorization
  • Store stock does not drop with the sale
  • Card or QR sales are reconciled against the bank by hand
Who it is for

Company profile for point of sale, and when it is not a fit

Good fit

  • You sell over a counter or in stores with one or more till shifts.
  • Till closings are balanced in a notebook or in Excel.
  • Store stock does not match what was sold.

Poor fit

  • You only sell on quotes and credit invoices: the ERP sales module is enough.
  • You need table orders and kitchen tickets: a restaurant system is worth assessing.
  • Tills have no hardware or stable connection: infrastructure comes first.
If nothing changes

The cost of staying as you are

  1. Differences with no owner

    With shared logins and unrecorded voids, every shortfall is argued over and none is explained.

  2. Hours of reconciliation

    The back office matches slips, deposits and sales one by one, and processor errors are found late.

  3. Restocking blind

    If stock doesn't drop with the sale, you overbuy what is left over and underbuy what runs out.

DMG-RT method

Point of sale analysis in four steps

Process and data first, the tool second. Each step ends in a deliverable you review.

Diego Muñoz, process and technology consultant
  1. A full shift at the till

    We observe opening, sales, voids, payments and closing with the cashiers, and note each step done outside the system.

  2. Products, prices and customers

    We review the product master, barcodes, price lists and credit customers.

  3. Hardware and payment methods

    We test printer, card terminal, scanner and scale with the software before committing to dates, and define the ledger account for each payment method.

  4. Go-live store by store

    We start on a pilot till, measure differences and rejections, and roll out to other stores with the closing already proven.

Services

From assessment to point of sale implementation

We implement this type of system

Scope

We implement point of sale with Odoo Point of Sale for shops, restaurants and self-service kiosks, connected to inventory, accounting and e-invoicing. If your case calls for another platform, we compare options against your requirements.

Till assessment

Opening, closing, void, credit and payment method rules, written down and approved by you.

Odoo Point of Sale implementation

Shop, restaurant with kitchen display or self-service, with inventory, accounting and electronic receipts.

Card terminal integration and reconciliation

We connect the card terminal to the till and set up reconciliation of settlements against sales.

Market

Market options for point of sale

In no order of preference. The choice comes from your requirements, your budget and the systems you already have.

Odoo Point of Sale

Odoo Point of Sale runs in the browser or on a tablet, keeps selling if the internet drops and shares inventory and accounting with the rest of Odoo. It has versions for shops, restaurants and self-service kiosks.

Other platforms we assess

  • Oracle MICROS Simphony
  • Lightspeed
  • Toast
  • Square
  • LS Retail (LS Central)
  • NCR Voyix

Selection criteria

  • Compatible hardware: printer, card terminal, scanner and scale
  • Offline selling
  • SUNAT electronic receipts from the till
  • Connection to your ERP, inventory and payment processor
Limits

Point of sale limits and ways to cover them

  • The till does not fix faulty product master data

    Codes and prices are cleaned up before go-live.

  • Selling without internet has limits

    It is defined which sales continue offline and how they sync back.

  • The card terminal comes from the payment processor

    It is connected as far as the processor supports; with no integration, the till stores the payment reference.

Online assessment

Point of sale assessment: 35 questions, 9 minutes

This analysis reviews how your registers operate, from product scan and card or QR payment to blind close and the receipt sent to SUNAT. The questions describe what happens in a real register shift.

Scored dimensions

  • Close and count by payment method. Looks at whether each shift closes with a blind count by payment method, recorded cash drops and differences reviewed per cashier.
  • Voids, discounts and permissions. Looks at whether voids, manual discounts and refunds require a supervisor code with a reason, and whether each cashier logs in with their own PIN and role permissions.
  • Product master and store stock. Looks at whether barcodes, prices and promotions reach each register from a single master and whether each sale deducts store stock at once.
  • Card, QR and credit payments. Looks at whether the register sends the amount to the pinpad and receives confirmation, whether Niubiz, Izipay or Yape payouts are reconciled per ticket and whether customer credit has balance and limit.
  • Receipts and register offline mode. Looks at whether register receipts and invoices reach SUNAT on time, whether rejections are handled and whether the register keeps selling offline without duplicate tickets.
  • Cashiers and shift cover. Looks at how many people per shift can run the register unaided and how a new cashier is trained before serving customers.

What you receive

When you finish, you receive your level in six register operation dimensions and the gaps ranked by weight. Each gap comes with a first action the store manager can verify.

17 scored questions and 13 context questions (type of operation, size, current system). Context questions are not scored: they let us read the result against similar operations.

Free of charge. Only Diego Muñoz sees your answers.

FAQ

Common questions about point of sale

If your question is not listed, Diego answers it on WhatsApp during Lima business hours.

We test it before committing to dates. If a device is not compatible, we tell you, with the alternative and its cost.

Odoo Point of Sale keeps selling and syncs when the connection returns. Receipts are sent to SUNAT once the network is back.

Yes, that is what we recommend: one pilot till, measurement of differences and rejections, then the rest.

The online assessment and the 30-minute review with Diego are free and carry no commitment.
