Generic POS vs ERP-connected trade counter POS

A generic POS system can process transactions. But lumberyards and building materials suppliers need more than a till. Counter teams need product, stock, pricing, customer, margin and order information connected to the wider business.

Generic POS

 Focuses mainly on taking payments 
May sit separately from stock and ERP data 
Limited visibility of margin at the point of sale
 Often designed for simple retail transactions 
 Can create extra admin after the sale 
Trade counter POS connected to GenetiQ

Supports sales, returns, deliveries, pricing and customer history
Connects counter activity with stock, orders, purchasing and reporting
Gives users margin and discount visibility during the transaction m
Built for trade counter workflows, account customers and complex products

Part of a connected LBM ERP platform

Point of sale works best when it is connected to stock, pricing, orders, customer history, finance and reporting. GenetiQ brings these workflows together so counter teams can serve customers with better information.
