International POS Ltd News

Many Pharmacy wholesalers are looking for Retail EPOS solutions for their wholly owned stores and also for their customers to use. The concept of receiving orders electronically from the independent retailers among their customer base is also very attractive. IPOS RS Software is already established as a solution in the Convenience store market.

International POS Ltd (IPOS) has now project managed the development of IPOS RS Software to provide this solution for the Pharmacy market.

An FTP site is created for the wholesaler so the head office and stores may communicate with each other via the Internet.

Orders can be generated for the retail store and seamlessly sent electronically to the wholesaler head office.

The other major benefits of the solution include being able to produce automatic orders from the store on products by case or single item.

Print shelf edge labels automatically when price changes are sent to store.

Product and price change report generated at head office when new products are created when added at the store.

Accounts for nursing homes, doctors etc may be set up.

Patients name can be attached to the transaction and loyalty points awarded for each customer.

The modern community pharmacy retailer not only provides a prescription service and over the counter sales of medicines but also provides a range of additional services to help its customers.

The IPOS Solution also uses the latest Zenis touch screen technology which has a 2nd customer screen to advertise services such as free prescription delivery, MUR and smoking cessation services as well as product promotions at the POS terminal.

The customer facing screen is very effective in the Pharmacy store as customers may be waiting for a few minutes while a prescription is prepared so information and adverts easily capture their attention.

The wholesaler may also take advantage of the screen adverts being sponsored by suppliers.

IPOS RS pharmacy solutions have been designed to ensure that they deliver a competitive edge in very challenging market conditions.

Newbottle Stores is a very successful convenience store business based near Sunderland that provides a valuable service to the local community.

Initially Newbottle Stores purchased an EPOS system using the DOS operating system which although was reliable is now no longer supported.

IPOS RS Software ticked all the boxes to provide an off the shelf solution for EPOS and stock control.The software was also customised to provide reports to make the buying process simple. The stock order reports have been customised so that Will Render the owner of the business can visit his supplier with the product order list tailored so that he can walk round the cash &carry wholesaler in the exact sequence as he buys the products.

The store needed two compact pos terminals as selling space is always at a premium which was achieved with the Tysso 5715integrated POS terminal. The Tysso 5715 touch screen terminal is an All-in-one design and was configured with an integrated VFD customer display. The Tysso 5715 terminal also uses the latest ultra low voltage computer processor which keeps down the power consumption. Together with the fast Tysso thermal receipt printer and cash drawer makes a robust, compact solution.

Will also chose the Zebex 6070 omnidirectional laser scanner to ensure that customers are served quickly and efficiently at the point of sale. The Zebex 6070 laser scanner has achieved an Internationally recognised design award for its performance and reliability and has a great price/ performance ratio when compared with other leading brand names

Johnshaven Stores is a very successful convenience store business based near Montrose that provides a valuable service to the local community for a wide variety of services including grocery, post office, newsround and a DVD rental service.

Initially Johnshaven Stores visited the CTN retailing exhibition to evaluate companies who supplied EPOS systems to the convenience store market. IPOS along with other companies were asked to respond to a detailed list of features which identified the specific requirements of the business. The list was compiled by Ewan Mackenzie the owner of the business who had previously purchased an EPOS software product which did not live up to his expectations.

IPOS RS Softwareticked all the boxes to provide an off the shelf solution for not only EPOS and stock control but also included hand held wireless stock ordering, Newsround Management and DVD rental control.

The store needed compact pos terminals because of limited counter space and one of the terminals needed to also double as the back office computer.

This was achieved by utilising the IPOS Pole mounted Preh MCE 15 touch screen system with POS PC as the master terminal. The pole mount also included the Preh MCI84 programmable keyboard which is used for customer data entry.

The Tysso 5715intergrated POS terminal was also configured with a secondary customer screen to show customer promotions as well as details of the sale.

Using the wireless Picco Link hand scanner and IPOS RS Software provided the freedom to move around the store; making ordering, stock takes and price changes quick and easy to manage saving time and money.
