A POS system with inventory management lets you sell products and track stock in real time – without double entry. For shops handling many product lines, this is critical for efficient operations. Here we explain what to look for when choosing a POS system for your shop.
What is a POS system with inventory management?
A POS system with inventory management connects sales directly to stock levels. When an item is sold at the register, it is automatically deducted from inventory. When goods are received, stock updates immediately. You get real-time overview of what is in stock, what is low and what needs ordering. No manual counting, no spreadsheets.
Benefits of integrated POS and inventory
When POS and inventory management are tightly connected, you get: Automatic stock updates with every sale. Real-time overview of inventory across locations. Order alerts when items approach minimum levels. History of stock movements and shrinkage. All of this saves time and reduces errors compared to separate systems.
POS for shops – what to look for
When choosing a POS system for your shop, prioritize: Ease of use – staff must learn the system quickly. Integration with accounting, inventory and potentially e-commerce. Payment solutions – support for card, mobile pay, invoice and financing. Reports that provide insight into sales, margins and trends.
Accounting integration with Tripletex, Visma and more
One of the most important features in a modern POS system is automatic transfer to accounting. DekkPro POS integrates seamlessly with Tripletex, Visma eAccounting, Visma Business, Visma Global, Unimicro, PowerOffice, Duett, DNB Regnskap and 24SevenOffice. Receipts are transferred automatically via API – no manual export and no risk of errors.
POS for specialized industries
General POS systems work for many shops, but specialized industries like tire shops, auto workshops and second-hand stores have needs that standard systems cannot cover. A POS for tire shops must handle composite orders with mounting and TPMS. For shops with storage, integration with a tire hotel system is essential.
