The operational problem
Retailers and restaurants run on thin margins and fast transactions. When the till, the stockroom and the accounts are separate systems, stock figures are wrong by lunchtime, head office sees sales a day late and shrinkage goes unnoticed.
What a retail system should cover
- Fast point of sale that keeps working if the internet drops
- Barcode, pricing, promotions and loyalty
- Real-time stock by branch with transfers and reordering
- Purchasing and vendor management
- FBR POS integration where required
- Cash, card and digital payment reconciliation
- Daily closing and branch profitability reports
- For restaurants: tables, kitchen orders, recipes and food costing
One system across branches
With Odoo Point of Sale, Inventory and Accounting, every branch sells from the same product list and prices. Head office sees sales and stock for all branches as they happen, and each sale posts to the accounts automatically.
Tax compliance
We connect the point of sale to FBR in Pakistan so receipts carry the FBR invoice number and QR code, and to ZATCA e-invoicing for retailers in Saudi Arabia.
E-commerce and delivery
Online and in-store sales should draw from the same stock. We connect e-commerce stores and delivery channels to the ERP so orders, inventory and payments stay consistent.
Security for stores
CCTV, access control and attendance devices can be added and linked to the same system, so branch security and staffing are visible alongside sales.
