A POS system is the most customer-facing piece of software in a retail or food service business — it must be fast, reliable, and impossible to confuse. ASTech ERP's POS is designed for the Indian retail environment: it works on any browser-capable device (PC, tablet, or touchscreen), handles barcode scanning for fast item lookup, and has an offline mode that continues billing even when the internet goes down. Offline bills are queued locally and sync to the cloud the moment connectivity returns, so you never lose a transaction. The POS is tightly integrated with the inventory and accounting modules. Every bill deducts from the warehouse's stock in real time and creates accounting entries automatically. The end-of-day reconciliation report shows opening cash, bills collected, cash received, UPI, card, and credit sales — so your daily closing is a 2-minute process, not a 30-minute calculation. Support for multiple payment methods, split payments, customer credit, and loyalty points makes it suitable for both high-volume grocery stores and premium boutiques.

Why Restaurant & Food Service Businesses Need Point of Sale (POS) Software

Restaurants, cafes, cloud kitchens, and food courts face unique challenges — fast-paced billing, ingredient cost control, table management, and GST on food orders. ASTech ERP provides a POS designed for food service businesses with features that handle dine-in, takeaway, and delivery billing.

Key Benefits

Offline billing with automatic sync

Internet outages never stop billing. The offline mode stores bills locally and syncs them to the cloud automatically when the connection returns. All stock and accounting are updated seamlessly.

Fast checkout with barcode scanning

Scan a barcode to add an item in under a second. For items without barcodes, search by name, SKU, or category. Auto-filled prices, discounts, and GST rates mean zero manual entry at the counter.

Multiple payment modes in one bill

Accept cash, UPI, card, and credit in a single transaction. Split payments across modes are common in retail and the POS handles them with no extra steps.

Real-time daily closing report

The day-end summary shows total bills, payment mode breakdowns, discounts given, returns processed, and cash in drawer — all calculated automatically with no manual reconciliation required.

How It Works

1

Open a session at the start of your shift

Enter the opening cash in the drawer to start a new POS session. This establishes the baseline for your daily reconciliation report.

2

Scan or search items and bill the customer

Scan barcodes or type item names to add to the bill. Apply customer-specific discounts, loyalty points, or coupon codes. Review the GST breakdown before collecting payment.

3

Collect payment and print receipt

Select the payment method(s), enter the amount, and the system calculates change automatically. Print a thermal receipt or send it via WhatsApp/email.

4

Close the session with a cash count

At day end, enter the physical cash count. The system compares it to the expected cash and shows any excess or shortage. The day-end report is ready for the owner to review.

Frequently Asked Questions

What devices can I run the ASTech ERP POS on?+
The POS runs on any modern web browser — desktop, laptop, tablet, or iPad. For thermal receipt printing, you connect a Bluetooth or USB receipt printer. Barcode scanners connect via USB or Bluetooth and work natively without any driver installation.
How does the offline mode work exactly?+
When internet connectivity is lost, the POS switches to offline mode automatically. Bills are created and stored in your browser's local storage. Stock deductions and accounting entries are queued. When connectivity returns, all offline bills sync to the server in order, and stock/accounts are updated as if they were created online.
Can I run multiple POS counters simultaneously?+
Yes. You can open multiple POS sessions on different devices in the same store. Each counter maintains its own cash drawer balance and session report. Consolidated day-end reports combine all counters automatically.
How does the POS handle GST for different product categories?+
GST rates are configured at the product level in the inventory master. When a product is scanned or selected in the POS, its GST rate is applied automatically. The bill clearly shows the tax breakdown by slab, which is printed on the customer receipt.
Can I offer item-level discounts and overall bill discounts?+
Yes. Both types of discounts are supported. Item-level discounts adjust the price before GST calculation (so GST is on the discounted price). Bill-level discounts are applied as a percentage after the subtotal. Both are recorded separately in reports so you can track discount impact.
