 SALES / PC CASH DESK

Integrated PC cash desk as POS (Point of Sale)

From Futura’s point of view, the PC POS system is a workstation with additional hardware equipment such as receipt printer, scanner and card terminal, but which can also fulfil additional tasks in the field of retail management, customer order processing and branch management.

This also includes viewing branch-wide stock level information, product pictures, registration of staff working hours, customer reference data maintenance, stock-taking, registration of incoming goods or goods requests, branch prices, statistical analyses, etc.

ASP - Application Service Providing – on the Internet with the PC POS!

In an ASP configuration, all decentralized users (sales branch, logistic centre) access the central database via the World Wide Web – the Internet. Immediately after every sales transaction, the head office has up-to-date data and makes them available to decision makers such as Purchasing, Merchandising and Controlling.

Futura is used in several European countries and is thus available in six languages: German, English, French, Dutch, Italian and Spanish, more will follow.

Futura is an integrated retail management system for LifeStyle Retail. Futura serves all areas of a company through which an item passes. This starts with order planning, moves on to goods received, checking of supplier invoices, allocating the goods to the branches, PC POS or TouchPOS, customer order, replenishment, inter branch transfer, integrated financial accounting, statistical analyses and finishes with automated data exchange with the branches. Futura's modular and scalable design allows any type of organisational structure of a company to be mapped: branch system, department stores, franchising, retail concession management (shop in shop, store or concession). Key functions of the Futura system can flexibly be shifted from the head office to the branches. Various interfaces, e.g. to accounting systems, web shops, scanners, credit card terminals, etc. are available. The potential integration with typical ERP systems ensures absolute data transparency from the sales transaction at the POS, via the automatic replenishment up to assortment and production planning. Futura is rounded off by the integration of all EDI message types and ASP support.
