Point of sale in Sohar
Point of sale software for shops and cafes in Sohar
Business in Sohar is shaped by port, freight and logistics activity, 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 Sohar 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.
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 Omani rials with three decimals, so every baisa shows on the receipt.
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 Oman; the edition for Oman is set up for 5% VAT.

Point of sale questions from Sohar
How does the daily closing work?
At the end of the day you close the day and see the cash and card takings added up. Compare them with what is in the drawer and the card machine before you leave.
Which payment methods can I record at the counter?
Cash and card. Each sale records how it was paid, so the closing can total each method separately.
Do I need an internet connection at the counter?
TAQNIX ERP runs on your own Mac and opens in your browser. Everyday invoicing and reports do not need an internet connection.
How do I handle a return?
Issue a credit note against the original sale. The original receipt stays as it was, and the credit note keeps a clear trail for your VAT summary.
What hardware do I need for a counter in Sohar?
TAQNIX ERP runs on a Mac. Before you buy, ask us about your receipt printer and barcode scanner so we can tell you what works with it.
