Newsagency POS Software - Stock Control

Stock Control forms the centre point of back office functionality. Your stock file includes unlimited attached PLU (Price Look-Up) / Barcode items each having the ability to have up to four price levels with the added feature of 'Sell 4' being able to be preset by date range. Other features include: min / max reorder points, category, sub-category and sub-category segment and a multiple supplier link, each with their own costings and pack size settings.

One of the highlights of the Newsagency POS stock system is it's ability to handle multiple pack size sell points. eg. Single, Six Pack and Carton whilst still maintaining accurate stock levels. In addition, stock bundles / recipes are controlled by allowing multiple stock items to be linked to a single PLU / Barcode eg. Christmas Food Hamper. These specialised stock features stand the Newsagency POS Stock Control system apart from most other POS software packages.

When stock items are received, either by electronic or manual invoice entry, GST allocation is recorded, stock on-hand figures and account payables are updated, attached PLU / Barcode item pricing can be adjusted, along with date range special pricing, using the the on-screen previous purchase cost and margin history. Product and shelf labels can also be printed at this time along with confirming purchase reports.

Stocktaking can be performed from either manual stock take sheets or via a PDE (Portable Data Entry) terminal. The PDE terminal allows you to simply scan items off the shelf, enter the count then electronically transfer into the Newsagency POS Stock Control Software.

Suggested reordering is an automated process and can be filtered by supplier and or stock category. The suggested reorder quantities can be based on the specified number of weeks (This is based on historical weekly sales data), preset min / max stock levels or by a specified number of weeks forced to a preset minimum order. Suggested reorders can be edited, allowing you to over-ride the suggested supplier, cost, pack size and order quantity.
