Point of sale in Umm Al Quwain
Point of sale software for shops and cafes in Umm Al Quwain
Business in Umm Al Quwain is shaped by fishing, farming and food production, workshops, factories and industrial estates and free-zone company activity. For a shop or cafe counter, that decides what the till has to do all day. TAQNIX ERP gives your counter a fast cashier screen, receipts that show 5% VAT in Arabic and English, cash and card payments and a daily closing, on the same books as your invoices and purchases.
Why counters in Umm Al Quwain are different
Fishing, farming and food production
Shops and stalls tied to fishing and farming sell fast, mostly for cash, and the till has to keep up with the morning rush.
Workshops, factories and industrial estates
Trade counters for workshops and parts suppliers mix walk-in cash sales with account customers who pay later. Both should end up in the same books.
Free-zone company activity
Free-zone companies often sell to other businesses as well as to walk-in customers, so the counter and the invoice desk should share one customer list and one set of books.
What the point of sale does at your counter
Receipts and totals are in UAE dirhams, with the VAT shown as its own amount.
A fast cashier screen
Pick items and take payment in a few taps, so the queue keeps moving at your busiest hour.
Receipts that show the VAT
Every receipt shows 5% VAT clearly and prints in Arabic, English or both.
Cash and card
Record whether each sale was paid in cash or by card.
A daily closing
Close the day and see the cash and card takings added up, ready for review.
Credit notes for returns
Correct a returned sale with a credit note against the original, not by editing the receipt.
Purchases from suppliers
Raise purchase orders to your suppliers and keep their bills with them.
The cashier screen
Ring up sales at the counter, take cash or card and print the receipt. Built for shops and cafes.

The pictures come from a design prototype of the Saudi edition: amounts are in SAR, VAT is 15% and some panels mention ZATCA. ZATCA does not apply in the UAE; the edition for the UAE is set up for 5% VAT.
