Point of sale in Hidd
Point of sale software for shops and cafes in Hidd
Business in Hidd is shaped by port, freight and logistics activity, workshops, factories and industrial estates and wholesale and re-export trade. 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 10% 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 Hidd are different
Port, freight and logistics activity
Port and freight crews shop at all hours. A quick cashier screen and a clear daily closing keep shifts easy to account for.
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.
Wholesale and re-export trade
Wholesale counters ring up many small cash sales next to large credit orders. The point of sale should handle both without a second system.
What the point of sale does at your counter
Receipts and totals are in Bahraini dinars with three decimals, so every fils shows, 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 10% 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.
